THE RIGHT THING.
A New Catarrh Cure, Which is Rapidly
Coming to the Front.

Coming to the Front.
For several years, Eucalyptol, Guaicol
and Hydrastin have been recognized as
standard remedies for catarrhal troubles,
but they have always been given sep
arately, and only very recently an in
genious chemist succeeded in combining
them, together with other antiseptics
into pleasant, effective tablet.
Druggists sell the remedy under the
name of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, and it
has met with remarkable success in the
cure of nasal catarrh, bronchial and
throat catarrh and in catarrh of the
stomach.
Mr.. f. N. Benton, whose address is
care of Clark House, Troy, n. Y, says:
When | run up against anything that is
good / like to tell people of it. | have
been troubled with catarrh more or less
for some time. Last winter more than
ever. Tried several so-called cures, but
did not get any benefit from them. About
six weeks ago l bought so cent box of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and ! am glad
to say that they have done wonders for
me and | do not hesitate to let all my
friends know that Stuarts Catarrh Tab
lets are the right thing.
Mr.. Geo. ]. Casanova, of Hotel Chiffon,
West 9th street, New York City, writes:
/ have commenced using Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets and already they have given me
better returns than any catarrh cure |
have ever tried.
A leading physician of Pittsburg advises
the use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets in
preference to any other treatment for
catarrh of the head. throat or stomach.
He claims they are far superior to in
balers. salves lotions or powder, and are
much more convenient and pleasant to
take and are so harmless that little chill
dren take them with benefit, as they con-
tain no opiate, cocaine or any poisonous
drug.
All druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
let's at 80 cents for full sized package and
they are probably the safest and most
reliable cure for any form of catarrh.

And lie Never Took Hold Again"

Some ten or twelve years ago lady in
this State was suffering from severe
hemorrhage of the womb. For years she
had been subject to almost continuous
flow, and at last she got into so low
condition that she was confined to the
bed. All efforts of the doctors failed to
check it, and finally two of the leading
physicians of her locality pronounced the
case cancerous. Her prostration was
great, and nothing seemed to reach her
case. One of her neighbors insisted on
her trying my Remedy and Wash. This
she would not do until she had consulted
her doctor. His reply was, when Mrs.
Person takes hold, we turn loose; when
she turns loose, we take hold" However,
she concluded TO try it. Without letting
anyone into the. secret, she used my
wash copiously. A great Improvement
soon set in, and by it's continued use she
was soon we'll. She has been cured all
these years, and says she can never say
enough for Mrs. Joe Persons Wash.
The name of the lady will be given, II
desired, upon application to me.
Respectfully,
MRS. JOE PERSON,

. A LIVE COAL TRICK.

Teaches Natural Law, Yet Has All
the Appearance of Magic.
No one would suppose that it is pos
sible to hold a glowing coal on a piece
of linen Or cotton without burning the
cloth. butt that such can be done is easy
for any one to prove, and at the same
time the experiment teaches an impOr-
tant natural law. Every child knows
that the telephone and telegraph wires
are madeiOf copper because that metal
is good conductor Of heat and elec-
tricity, which is only another form of
heat If a poker is heated in the fire,
you pick up cloth to hold the outer
end. although it has not been in the
fire, because experience has taught you
that the Heat is connected through the
metal frOI 10 the fire to the outer end.
This experiment with the flaming
coal is based upon this principle and
the additional one that linen and cot
ton are pd or conductors of heat Take
globe of copper and draw a piece of
cloth tightly over it so that there is
not wrinkle at the top. If the linen
or cotton IS closely woven. the trick is
all the MORE certain. Then, holding
the cloth tightly in place, you can safe
ly put glowing coal on top of the
cloth, andi while it burns fercely, the
cloth will pot even be scorched.
The reason is that the great conduc-
t1Vity Of the copper draws the heat of
the coal efore it can burn the cloth.
Do not tky this experiment with a
good handke kerchief first, for If the cloth
Is not tightly drawn 1t may burn. but
take some worthless piece Of linen OF
muslin, AID after you are certain OF
your expeHenc ."ou can astonish youl

Remembered Too Late.

Speaking Of the queer doings of alb
sentminded people, the following anec-
dote is related by the London Globe:
"a very irritable man left his house
one morning to attend a race meeting
some distance off. In order that he
might have enough money to pay his
hotel bill he tied a sovereign in the
corner Of his handkerchief In the
train he drew his handkerchief from
his pocket, and noticed the knot in the
corner. Now he said to himself, what
was it wished to remember? Much
thought failed to enlighten him upon
the point, and at last, in a fit of passion
he hurled the handkerchief out of the
window. Then he remembered"

about 40 miles from Rome, is known as
the City Of Crime. Ever since the six

that he would put joke in the Decla-
