Nine OUT OF EVERY TEN
SUFFER FROM CATARRH IN SOME
FORM.

Nine out Of every ten in this climate suf-
fer from catarrh in some form. Although
so common a disease there is no complaint
SO generally misunderstood and i'll treated.
People suffering from catarrh, either by in
stinct or habit first employ the nasal douche
or some equally dangerous local application
for its trea tment
By the very nature OF its symptoms ca
tarrh denotes a bodily disturbance and tho
need of a constitutional remedy. An inter-
nal remedy should be used to act upon the
entire nervous system and thus reduce the
Inflammation extending along the weakened
membranes. There is no remedy that will
do this so effectively as Gauss Catarrh Tab
lets.
They are taken internally and are scien-
tifically prepared to act upon the infiamed
membranes through the blood; it is safe to
say that they will cure any case Of catarrh
no matter where located or of how long
standing. They are pleasant to take and at
any time or place; no spoon, bottle or
douche to carry about.
Gauss Catarrh Tablets are sold by all
druggists or by mail, so cents. Our little
book on catarrh sent free to any address.

a Paris paper publishes statistics to show
that in given period only one death and
thirty three injuries have been caused by
automobiles in that city, and that In the
same time vehicles drawn by horses have
caused no less than sixty-seven deaths and
40 injuries. The statistics are interesting
rather than conclusive, because they do not
take into account the relative numbers OF
the two kinds of vehicles in use. But the
fact that the automobile, whether in Paris
or elsewhere, is less dangerous to passersby
than is the horsed carriage can scarcely be
doubted. Machinery Is always under better

In his annual report the superintendent OF
police of Washington pays a high tribute to
the bicycle. He says the wheel has proved
a valuable acquisition in expediting police

The Transvaal war will at least have
the credit of being the first campaign in
which bicycles have been employed by regu-
lar troops, and from the frequency with
which they are mentioned in the kilograms.
1t is very evident that the riders are doing
coed service. This fact, coupled with the
order of Sir Redvers Butler that depart
mental officers at bases might have the op-
tion OF using their cycles instead of horses,
and receive an allowance in lieu of rations,
leads one to hope that the military authori-
ties are at length beginning to perceive
the practical value of the bicycle in war
fare. For years they have sighted and
snubbed it, strangely enough in face of the
declared opinions in its favor OF Lord
Wellesley and other distinguished officers.
And 1t has been left to the volunteers to
do what little has been done to show the
military efficiency of the bicycle. Year after
year, in the maneuvers cyclists have proved
themselves OF very great service to the
regiments TO which they have been attached;
in spite, too, of the fact that they have in
many cases been placed under the command
OF officers of the regulars who had only the
most elementary idea OF the capacities and
limitations OF bicycles. Yet II Is only within

Following out the argument OF every de-
feated pugilist Sharkey boldly asserts him
self to be the better man. He loudly pro-
claims that he was jobbed. From beneath
the folds of bandages and plaster paris casts
and courtplaster, and through an atmosphrr,
redolent with arnica and other medical
applications calculated to alleviate physical
pain, he roars to his retinue OF physicians
and surgeons and dentists and neurologists
and aurists and oculists that he can "llck"
Jeffries any day in the week. This is childs
prattle. He was fairly beaten, and his ex-
pressed determination to throw down the
gauntlet to Jeffries, even If he has to attack
him on the streets, Is the puerile evapora-
ticn of sordid mind or course, Sharkey
is upheld by some of the soreheads who
had money on him in the assertion that he
was jobbed. Nothing changes mans mind

touched, But the unbiased opinion of all
legitimate sportsmen uphods siler in his

to lose the services of as efficient a sec

vas a weighted fin keel has been added to
her. She is said to be very stiff In a strong
breeze. When the challenge was first is
sued it was supposed the San tranciScos
had in view the fact that at the end or
September the wind has lost some OF It's
summer force and that light weather
would be most favorable to the challenger.
Now, however, the San FranciscoS seem
to rest their main hope on the chance
of strong wind The Corinthians Il also also

er they win or lose, will give hop in the

The Corinthian yachtsmen feel that an
injustice has been done to them and to
ex-Commodore j. w. Pew by the charges
of ''unsportsmanlike conduct which have
been made against them. The terms un-
der which the challenge cup is held state
that the defending yacht must not have
a racing length more than 10 per cent
greater than that of the challenger. When
the San Franciscos named $3.50 feet as the
racing length of their boat the Corinth-
ians were entitled to select defender not
exceeding 2S05 feet racing length. On
Cthe strongest class in the club the Tru-
ant seemed the best boat and she was
in the. slightest degree "unsportsman-
like" in this. The Corinthians merely
selected the best defender the rules per-
mitted them to choose. 1t is said that the
San Franciscos wished to challenge in
the 25-foot class and had no intention Of
racing against one of the Corinthian 30
footers. If they wished to make sure Of
this. the extreme racing length of the
challenger should have been 2273 feet

to cover all conditions of shooting on
their Cordelia preserves. The only days
shooting will be allowed are Sundays and
Wednesdays There will be no shooting
before sunrise or after sunset. Shooters
will draw for blinds at Cordelia the
night before the shoot. No more than
twenty may shoot at one time; when

guns will be permitted in the clubhouse

following special rules of the club may
be read with profit by all gun men:
Study the comfort and pleasure OF your
fellow shooter, and conduct yourself so
not TO interfere with his sport Remember
he is after ducks, too.
Refrain from loud talk and shouting Ito
your dog especially. Ducks don't have any
thing to do with noisy people. Stay in your
blind as much as possible, and stay out OF
sight. Ducks won't decoy to you.
Shoot cripples-don't chase them.
Retrieve only often as necessary-once
hour is enough.
Shoot only at birds within your reach
Let skyscrapers alone-they will come
nearer; II not to you to your fellow shooter
and he is waiting for them patiently; don't
forget him.
Don't let your gun point at any one at
any time-shooters don't enjoy it. even
when guns not loaded.
Don't go into a house or a wagon with
your gun loaded.
Don't climb a fence with a load in your
gun. 1t takes but a minute to extract the
shells-it takes three days for funeral.

MAY FORM a NEW CLUB.

The announcement in The Call Thurs
day of the probable formation of a new
wheeling club, made up of the older
members of the Olympic Wheelmen and
Bay State Wheelmen, has been the sole
topic of conversation among the cyclers.
Many say they will join such an organiza-
ton, though it must not be supposed that
they are by any means in the majority.
Both clubs still have large number of
warm supporters, who will stay by their
colors through thick and thin.
The idea of new club, however, ap-
peals strongly to those cyclers who take
little or no interest in racing. AS one

quarters are fitted up for the racers in

basement of the building, while man

clubs who will enter teams have again
