Dear Sir.-Being as / am a stranger to

politicians, 1t was with the greatest sur
prise and amusement that / discovered
a new wrinkle and for want of a better

The Evening Journal, which is UNDER

Every Evening am informed being a
boiling Democratic organ, use similar
ideas and almost similar language in con-
demning the course of the Republican
party. There is wonderful and appar-
emily inspired, unanimity in the tone OF
both.
1t strikes me very forcibly that it is a
case of "you scratch for me and will
scratch for you.'

OBITUARY.

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 incurable
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be n constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. ]. Cheney,

tutional cure ON the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to u
