There Is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed TO be in
durable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies. and by
constantly failing 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 mucous sur

81 have never seen more prosperous
condition of affairs In all walks of
life" he said, there is prosperity and
apparent content. Crops are splendid,
and farmers are in despair because OF
their inability to secure hands for the
farms. This is because there is plenty
of work in the cities, and labor has
been drawn to the centers. Money is
plentiful and the far West seems to
have all of its share. In fact there is
so much money that Nebraska banks,
for instance, are competing for COM
mercial paper in Chicago with interest
at a low rate. / do not think this ever
occurred before. Heretofore the West
ern banks have never had so much
money, and have had to borrow from,
the East. Money is going from the
West to the East, and this renders the
money market in the East easy. There

Europe, where interest is higher. Nc
Kinley will carry more Western states

satisfied with the situation and would
vote for the reelection of Mckinley"
