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.
cifie cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force 1t from the blood.

WOOdmen Notes.

The Indiana fraternal congress
holds special meeting in Indianapo-
lis next June, at which time an or
ganization more closely uniting all
fraternals doing business in Indiana
will be perfected. The Woodmen will
be represented.
The order of the Royal Neighbors
of America, " remarks the Guardian,
of Boston, has lifted its head in In
diana. Its insurance features are de-
signed to benefit women only. The
mean things!"
At the March meeting of the board
of directors death benefits amounting
to a grand total of $500, 100 were al
lowed. This amount exceeds last
month by $4,000.
AT the close of business on the
evening of March % the report to
Head Clerk Halves from the chief of
that department showed that during
the % days in March total of II, 115
new certificates were issued, and 11S
new camps were chartered. For the
entire month of February the gain
was 12,177 new certificates and 81
new camps. So if the present month s
increase is maintained to the close,
there is little doubt but that the order
shall smash all past records.

THEY RIDICULE 1T.
Many People Ridicule the Idea of
an Absolute Cure for Cyspep-
STA and Stomach Troubles.
RidicuIe, However, is Not Argument, and
Facts Are stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common,
and in most cases so obstinate to
cure that people are apt to look with
suspicion on any remedy claiming to
be radical, permanent cure for dys-
pepsia and Indigestion. Many such
pride themselves on their acuteness in
never being humbugged, especially in
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can
be carried too far. so far, in fact, that
many people suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk little
time and money in faithfully testing
the claims made of preparation so
re liable and universally used as Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different i'll one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
n secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients, but analy-
sis shows them to contain the natural
digestive ferments, pure aseptic pep
sin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal,
bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They
are not cathartic, neither do they act
powerfully on any organ, but they
cure indigestion on the common sense
plan of digesting the food eaten
thoroughly before it has time to fer
ment, sour and cause the mischief.
This is the only secret of their sue
cess.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure indigestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely on
the bowels, whereas the whole trouble
is really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken
after meals digest the food. That is
all there is to it. Food not digested
or half digested is poison, as it creates
gas, acidity, headaches, palpitation of
the heart, loss of flesh and appetite
and many other troubles which are
often called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists every
where at 30 cents per package. Adj

1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An
Albany On. " dairyman called at a
drug store there for a doctor to come
and see his child, then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in, he
left word for him to come at once on
his return. lie also bought bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some re-
lief until the doctor should arrive.
In a few hours he returned, saying
the doctor need not come. as the child
was much better. The druggist, Otto
Scholz, says the family has since rec
commended Cham berlain's Cough Rem
edy TO their neighbors and friends
until he has a constant demand for it
from that part of the country. For

Responsibilities

The Unions expert" tells more of
what he don't know about affairs at
the city clerks Office in yesterdays
issue of the Eighteenth street jour
nal. attempting to reflect on the COM
potency of the present administra-
ton by alleging irregularities in con-
nection with Sixteenth street paving
account rebates, etc. In answer to
his screed it is only necessary to state
that the books and vouchers on file at
the city clerks office are examined
and checked up yearly by the finance
committee of the council. The COM
mittee makes report of its findings,
and it is the duty of the clerk to make
an annual statement to the council,
which statement together with all the
annual reports of the city officers,
are published in pamphlet form.
The books and vouchers are on
file at the city clerks office, and are
open to the public at all times. If
there is any one, expert and would-be
expert included, who does not I'M
derstand the Sixteenth street paving
account or any other account, and de-
sires any information, he will be ac-
commodated by City Clerk Huesing
by calling at his office, where any
matter coming under the jurisdiction
of that office will be thoroughly eN-
planned to his satisfaction.
City Clerk Huesing does not deem
it his duty to check up the accounts
of the various collectors of special
improvements assessments who were
in office previous to 1898, when Mayor
Medill and he were elected to office.
The blame for errors discovered in
collectors accounts should be placed
on the officials in power before their

reported as being correct by the
finance committee of the council pre-
vious to 1898.
