this for many years. Science never Ills

Catarrh.

Catarrh is one Of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid Of.
There is but one way TO cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-
cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
Mr.. B. p. McAllister, OF Harrodsburg.
KY, had Catarrh for years. He writes

mirrors that will tell them very promptly
whether their beauty is fading. A wom-
ans beauty fades very rapidly If she is
troubled with some arrangement of the
distinctly feminine organism. Ignorance
or carelessuess in this respect frequently
causes great suffering and irregularity in
after life. Little Irregularities and weak
nesses in girlhood should be looked upon
promptly and properly treated at once.
Mothers cannot be too conscientious in
this respect, and cannot throw aside the
prudery that is so prevalent upon this point
too soon. Every young woman should
know something about her own physical
make up. and the importance TO her future
of her local as well as general health. A
woman who suffers from weaknesses Pc
culiar to her sex will rapidly lose her
beauty, her general health, her amiability
and her usefulness and capability as a wife
