There Is more Catarrh is this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For great many years doc- tors pronounced ia local disease and pre- scribed local remedies, and by constantly fail- ing to cure with local treatment pronounced 1t incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease. and therefore re- quires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca- Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case 1t fails to cure.

To The writer's knowledge, there
are many mechanics liens and judg-
ments recorded in the clerk of courts
office that should long ago have been
released. The same is believed to be
true of mortgages in the register of
deeds Office. People should see to it
that when they pay asecured bill a re-
lease is given and filed. OF course no
one wants to have an incumbrance that
he has paid off show on the books; but
it is fact, nevertheless, that a great
many who secure releases fail to file
them with the proper official.

The Grand Forks Herald editor Of
ten assumes the role of critic of his
brethren of the state press because
they are disposed to go to war-in a
more or less Pickwickian sense-with
one another. And yet the Herald man
is so anxious for trouble that he takes
columns to roast another editor who is
jackass enough to allege that the peo-
pie of Grand Forks-as a whole-are
lacking in patriotism. A wise editor
an editor who hadn'ta chip on his
shoulder-would have treated the
charge with the contempt it deserved,
instead Of breakingse lances with
It's author.
