There is more catarrh in this sec.
ton Of the country than all other dis.
eases put together. and until the last
few years was supposed to be incura-
Bile. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly falling to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and, therefore.
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally, in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,

On Friday afternoon Judge Faulk-
ner sentenced B. +. Fellers, convicted
of the crime Of rape, and for whom
the jury recommended Imprisonment
in the penitentiary instead of the
death penalty, which could have been
inflicted under the law and gave him
20 years. His honor reviewed the
case and in substance said that the
duty was an unpleasant one, yet had
the jury returned the verdict other
wise than the way they did, he did
not know but that he would have
sentenced him to death. He remind
ed the prisoner, however, OF the fact
that few return from long con6ne-
ment, and that the prisoner could re-
fleet upon his conduct and change his
mode OF living.

Three Doctors in Consultation.
From Benjamin Franklin

When you are sick, what you like
best is to be chosen for a medicine in
the first place; what experience tells
you is best, to be chosen in the second
place; what reason, Ii. e., Theory
says is best is to be chosen in the last
place. But if you can get DR.. Inclina-
ton, DIR. Experience and DR.. Reason
to hold consultation together, they
win give you the best advice that can
be taken.
When you have bad cold DR.. In
clination would recommend Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy because it is
pleasant and safe to take. DR.. Ex-
perience would recommend it because
it never fails to effect a speedy and
permanent cure. DR.. Reason would
recommend it because it is prepared
on scientific principles, and acts on
natures plan in relieving the lungs,
opening the secretions and restoring
the system to natural and healthy
condition. For sale at Matthaei's
Pharmacy.

The best exhibits of hvpnotism ev

The best exhibits of hypnotism ever
seen in Martinsburg was given by
Sylvan A. Lee and his assistant at
the Central opera house this week.
1t was one of the most laughable en-
tertainments we have ever witnessed.
The antics of the hypnotized subjects
provoked much mirth and merriment
from the large audience that wit
messed the performances nightly He
had his subjects, who were volun-
teers from the audience, falling back
wards and forwards, fastened their
eyes and hands so they could not
open them, had them sitting on tacks,
red hot chairs, gave them the tooth.
ache and made them roar with laugh.
ter. Hat pins taken from the audi.
ence were run through the hypnotized
mems faces and arms without pain Oh
causing drop of blood to flow. This
is only few of the features. At the
close of the performance on Monday
night, Mr.. Lee put one of his sub
jects to sleep and awakened him on
Wednesday night. Large crowds
witnessed the performances and ev.
erybody enjoyed them. See him to-

"For Valor,"

A little story that appeared not long
ago in a Spanish comic paper is sent to
us by correspondent to show how Span
iards thought of their navy before the
present events. A Spanish admiral
touching at some foreign port in the
natural course Of events calls on the
governor of the local fort, and on the
return call the governor sees the one lit
tie gun of the Spanish man-of-w war run
out to fire return salute, but at the
critical moment the Spanish admiral
PUSHES up and throws the gun, carriage
and all, into the sea.
.y WhatP' exclaims the distinguished
visitor. why do You throw your gov
ernment's guns overboard?'' /.
Because, 7 replies the admiral, eff
the gun had gone off, it would have
blown this whole ship to pieces! That
means another decoration for mel"
.How's that?','
For my courage in saving this ship
from destruction. = London News.

Dangers From Violent Exercise.

5
There is considerable diversity of
opinion as to the safety with which wo-
men may indulge in violent exercise in
view of possible injury. AS regard the
heart, there appears to be but one opin-
namely, that that organ, accus-
toned to quiet life, may be danger
ously and permanently crippled by the
excessive strain in athletic sports. Ex-
perience in medical practice, says an
eminent authority, teaches that the pa
tient with a weak heart must be ex-
tremely cautious in his exercises, and
the demonstration Of dilatation of the
healthy heart under sudden, violent,
exhausting effort which has been made
was Of surprising nature. Many elm
ical observers in Germany and in this
country have detected by percussion and
observation Of the changes in the heart
beats that there is under strain and exer-
ton considerab BILE dilatation, which con-
tinues for shorter or longer time after
the exertion is over Ocular proof of
this has been afforded by the Roentgen
rays. This shows not only the need Of
caution by those in good health, but
more particularly so in the case of those
who suffer from any weakness, consti
tutional or otherwise, in this organ. -

HER CAT IN HER POCKET.
Bismarck Travels In State Wherever Hi.
Mistress Goes

Bismarck Travels In State Wherever His
Mistress Goes.
A woman walked into the breakfast
room Of one Of Chicago's swell hotels,
dressed in travelling costume and carry
ing on her arm cape Of plaid cloth,
which she hung over the chair next at
table, disposing Of it with some care, as
if it might be Of value.
Then she gave her attention to the
menu and discussed service of fruit
while she waited for her order. She was
reused from pleasing study of her plate
by series Of "Ohs!" and "Ahs!'' and
"What darling!'' and hasty glance
showed her big white Angora cat seat
ed gracefully on the vacant chair at her
side.
"Oh, Bismarck, you dreadful cat :"
she said, as the head waiter approached
with look in his eye that bodied no
good to the cat
II mus put him out, madam" he
said, with the assurance that goes with
head walters.
But his mistress clicked her fingers
and the cat disappeared. Every eye was
upon him, yet no one saw him go. The
waiter looked on the chair and under it,
but pussy had vanished like dream.
Find the cat-he is in the picture
somewhere, remarked the owner of the
pet, as she buttered her toast But the
cat did not come back and it was not
until the woman had finished her break
fast and was leaving the table, with
her travelling cape thrown over her arm,
that the mystery of the animals disap-
pearance was explained, and pussy's
head was allowed to peep from Ca
pacious inside pocket in that cape.
HE has travelled in that pocket from
the Pacific coast, and this is the first
time he has given away his hiding
place." said his mistress. HE will not
pur for fear of being found, but he is
near his journeys end now and is get
ting tired. This cape is his exclusive
property, and the pocket is his private
car. "-Chicago Times Herald. ~
