There Is more catarrh in this sec
tion of country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable, For a great many years
doctors pronounced it 4 local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease, and therefore requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh 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 a teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address

In such times as these through

ticularly gratifying to read a news
paper whose news can be relied upon
as accurate and faithful reports of
events and conditions. Conspicuous
among such papers is the Boston
journal. Its pithy announcement
that "The Boston Journal prints
facts" is borne out day by day. Not
only that, but it is showing notable
enterprise in getting all the news of
the time and in SO arranging it in the
paper that the reader may turn at
once to whatever part of the news he
may wish first. The daily dispatches
from Coolidge" the Journals
Washington correspondent, and his
reviews. of the situation as it pro.
crosses, have been distinctly able
and authoritative. Coolidge" writes
in very interesting style, bringing

manner such as only o newspaper

Of experience in the work can do.
