YOU CAN cUREIT.
A New Cure For Catarrh IN Tab
let Form.

The old time treatment for catarrh
was in the form of douches or sprays;
later on, internal remedies were given
with greater success, but being in liquid
or powdered form were inconvenient, and
were open to the same objection to all
liquid remedies, that is, that they lose
whatever medicinal power they have mad
on exposure to the air.
The tablet is the ideal form in winch TO
administer medication, but until recent
ly no successful catarrh tablet had ever
been attempted.
At this writing however, a, most ex-
cellent and palatable remedy for ca
tarrh has been placed before the pubic
and sold by druggists, called Stuart s
Catarrh Tablet. composed of the most
recent discoveries in medicine for the
cure of catarrh. and results from their
use having been highly gratifying.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain pr1n-
cipally highly concentrated antisept1cs,
and mucous membranes, and in this re-
spect are strictly scientific and modern,
as it has been known for some years past
by the ablest physicians that the most
successful catarrh treatment was by IN
haling or spraying antisept1cs-
The use of inhalerS, doucheS ana sprays,
however, is a nuisance and announcement,
and moreover can in no way compare
with the same remedies given in tablet
form either in efficacy or convenience.
A clerk in a prominent insurance oHlce
in Pittsburg relates his experience with
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets in a few words,
but to the point. He says: "Catarrh mas

Pacific. That there is opposition to the
plan is certain, and it might become
very formidable We're there any danger
of anything like a clash between the ex-
ecutive officers of the system and the
men to be affected. The fact is, how
ever, that the company, rather than
have any serious trouble, will abandon
the plan entirely, in proof of which
statement General Manager Kruttsch-
nit has issued the following letter:
1.-The information has reached US that
many employees honestly believe MEM
bership in the relief department com
pulsory, whilst others believe that,
whilst not compulsory at present, the
regulations will be changed hereafter
so as to make it so.
LAS the instructions from the presi-
dent of the company were that mem
bership as to present employees was to
be entirely voluntary, I wish you to as
sure your men that neither now nor
hereafter will any form of coercion be
permitted to be used, and that no en-
ploye who elects not to join will in the
least degree prejudice his standing or
compromise his position with the COM
pany.'

UNDER MANY ALIASES
An Old Remedy in New Dlsguises.


It is the common belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply
chronic cold in the head. This is true
as far as it goes, but as a matter of fact
catarrh is by no means confined to the
nasal passages, but extends wherever
the mucous membrane extends, which
means nearly every part of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside
skin of the body and is nearly as extern
SiVe the outside skin, and any infam
ira secretion of fluid is really catarrh-
Catarrh is therefore, an old remedy dis
guised by many confusing names, for in
stance: Rhinitis is nasal catarrh;
laryngitis and pharyngitis, throat ca
tarrh; bronchitis, bronchial catarrh, gas
phritis, catarrh of the bladder and kid
neyS.
Therefore, although the location of the
trouble gives it various names, in reality
the sum total is catarrh, and nothing else
Do not make the mistake of thinking
you have catarrh because the head
and nose appear to be clear. If there is
ness, you have throat catarrh; II there
is no appetite, but nausea, gagging and
disgust for food, especially in the morn
ing you have catarrh in the stomach.
The surest treatment for every form of
catarrh is an internal remedy, which acts
specially on the blood and mucous MEM
branes; such remedy is the new prep
der the name of StuartS Catarrh Tablets,
a medicine in pleasant tablet form and
containing all the best and latest specifics
for catarrh.

EARNINGS FOR FEBRUARY.
Reports of 10Y Roads Show Aggre-
gate Increase of Seven Millions.

Railroad, gross earnings for the
month. of February make a handsome
exhibit in the way of gains. Accord
ing to the Financial Chronicles compi-
lation, 107 roads, with a mileage of

over last year, forty-nine showing an
increase of 1912, $50.
The significance of the Improvement
this time is of course diminished by the
fact that comparison is with a period
of such obviously unfavOrable condi-
tions last year. In February, 1885, the
roads suffered from the effects of the
blizzard, which extended over the whole
of the country from Texas to the Cana
dian border, tying up the railroads as
they had not been tied up before since
the memorable blizzard of 1885, The
decrease. it is true. was not large,
reaching S402, $50, or a little over one per
cent, but its nature and importance
were plain from the circumstance that
February was the only month of 1899
distinguished in this way. The present
year the country has been almost en-
tirelY free from disturbances of that
kind, although at the very close of Feb
ruary a heavy fall of snow was reported
in the west, temporarily delaying the
movement of traffic over some of the
roads.

ton in tablet form, very pleasant to take
and according to many recent tests, the
results have been highly satisfactory
Unlike patent medicines in general,
this new catarrh cure is not a secret
preparation, but the ingredients are
plainly stated.
Druggists sell the remedy under the
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and
centrated antiseptics, eucalyptol hydras-
TN, guaiacol, beechwoOd tar. and several
other well known catarrh specifics, and
the success of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
In promptly relieving and curing the diff
1erent forms Of catarrh is really some
thing remarkable.
Whether the catarrh is in the nose,
throat broncial tubes, or stomach, the
tablets seem to act with equal success
relieving in a few days the stuffy feel
ing IN head and nose, removes the tickling
and irritation in the throat and bronchia1
tubes, and a few weeks use seem to re-
move completely the hawking. splitting

Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are approved
by physicians, because no secret is made
OF what they contain, and people who
suffer from catarrh should bear in mind
that many catarrh medicines, powders
olntments, etc, contain cocaine to such
an extent in fact. that in many states
their sale is prohibited.
Largely for this reason the ingredients
in Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are plainly
stated to the public This is something
no catarrh cure has even done before
and people who are careful of what they
put into their stomachs will fully appre-
clate this advantage in using Stuart 5
Catarrh Tablets, because they not only
cure catarrh, but they leave no bad eff
fects and no habit is formed as is the
case with SO many catarrh remedies

U. P. EXAMINATIONS.
Company Surgeons Busy Reporting
Physical Conditions of Employees.

Junction City, March ia month or
six weeks ago the U. P. issued an or
der to the effect that it's employees must
undergo a medical examination. The
scope includes general physical condi-
ton, with special emphasis placed upon
hearing and vision. The order means,
in effect, that any employee who passes
this examination would fulfill the re-
quirements made by the United States
army. Union Pacific surgeons have. not
yet established a basis by which en-
plOyes will be retained or turned down,
the examining surgeon making a rec
ord only of the findings. Examina-
lions are made only at Kansas City.
Junction City, and Ellis. The or
der includes all employees of the
road, almost to the section man. The
foreman on the section is scheduled for
examination. but the section man
escapes.
Drs. Daugherty & Kidd are Union Pa
cific surgeons at this point. They ex-
anime any applicant sent them. Thus
far from 125 to 100 have been. sent to
Junction City. In that list were men
from Ellis, Kansas City and the
branches. They have been reporting at
the rate of ten to fifteen per day.

PLAIN TALK
To Catarrh Sufferers.

Every person suffering from catarrh
in its many forms knows that the COM
mon lotions, salves and douches do not
cure 1t is needles to argue this point
or to cite cases of failure, because every
victim of catarrhal trouble knows it for
himself if he has tried it.
A local application, if it does anything
at all, simply gives temporary relief: a
wash, lotion, salve or powder can not
reach the seat of the disease which is
the blood.
The mucous membrane seeks to relieve
the blood of catarrhal poison by secreting
large quantities of mucous, the discharges
sometimes closing up the nostrils. de-
scending to the throat and larynx, causing
an irritating cough, continual clearing of
the throat, deafness, Indigestion and
many other disagreeable and persistent
symptoms.
A remedy to really cure catarrh must
be an internal treatment; a remedy which
will gradually cleanse the system from
catarrhal poison and remove the fever
ana congestion always present in the mu-
cOuS membrane.
The best remedies for this purpose are
EucalypUoI Sanguinaria and HydraStin,
but the difficulty has always been to
get these valuable curatives combined in
one paletable, convenient and efficient
form
Recently this has been accomplished
and the preparation put on the market

Tablets; they are large, pleasant tasting
lozengeS, so that they may be slowly dis
solved in the mouth, thus reaching every
part Of the mucous membrane and fin
ally the stomach and intestines.
An advantage to be considered also is
that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain no
cocaine, morphine, or poisonous narcotics,
SO often found in catarrh powders, and
the use of which often entails a habit
more dangerous than the disease.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold by
druggists at so cents for full sized pack
age and are probably the safest and most
effectual catarrh cure on the market.

A DAILY NUISANCE.
A Simple Remedy Which VIII In
terest Catarrh Sufferers.

In its early stages catarrh is more of a
nuisance than a menace to the general
health, but sooner or later the disease
extends to the throat, bronchial tubes,
and even to the stomach and intestines.
Catarrh is essentially a. disease of the
mucous membrane, the local symptoms
being a profuse discharge of mucous,
stoppage of the nostrils, irritation in
throat, causing coughing, sneezing,
gagging and frequent clearings of the
throat and head.
The usual treatment by local douches,
snuffs, salves, etc, often gives tempo
rary relief, but anything like a cure can
removes the catarrhal faint from the
blood and the disappearance of the in
Illumination from the mucous surfaces.
A new remedy which meets these re-
quirements, and which far has been
remarkably successful in curing catarrh,
is Stuart''s Catarrh Tablets
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called a secret patent medicine.

remedies as Sanguinaria, Hydrastin,

pleasant tasting Iozenges, taken inter
nally, allowing them to dissolve slowly in
the mouth. In this way they reach the
throat, fauces and the entire alimentary
canal
If desired, they may also be dissolved
in water and used as douche, in addi-
ton to the internal use, but it is not at
all necessary to use a douche; a few of
them dissolved in the mouth daily will
be sufficient. However, when there is
much stoppage of the nose, douche
made from these tablets will give imme-
date relief, but the regular daily use in
ternally of these tablets will cure the
whole catarrhal trouble without resort
ing to the inconvenience of a douche.

treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking
the place of the old plan of dOuching and

C. P. IS STUBBORN.
Refuses to Enter Anti-Commission
Agreement.

Chicago, March 15-Great difficulty is
being experienced by the western gen

cific to join in the agreement to stop
paying commissions on ticket sales. AS
a condition to becoming a party to the
agreement the Canadian Pacific makes
some preposterOus- demands, and it is
feared nothing will be accomplished af-
ter all. One of the demands is that the
western roads refund the amount of ex-
cess commissions which the Canadian
Pacific had to pay during the last year
to meet the competition of the Ameri-
can roads. The assent given by the
Canadian Pacific to the withdrawal Of
the S25 colonist rates from st. Paul to

LIFE COMPANION
And a Very Undesirable One.

With thousands of people in this eli
mate, catarrh is a constant and lifelong
companion; it gets better at times, but
each year becomes gradually deeper seat
ed, and after a time the individual resigns
himself to it a necessary evil.
Catarrh cures are almost as numerous
as cataTrh sufferers, but are nearly all
so inconvenient and ineffective as to rem
der their use a nuisance nearly as annoy
ing as catarrh itself.
1t would seem at first glance that ca
tarrh, being a disease of the mucous
membrane that salves, sprays, etc, be-
ing applied directly to the membranes
would be the most rational method, but
this has proven not to be true.
The mucous membrane is made and
repaired from the blood, and catarrh is
a. blood disorder, and a remedy to be per-
manent must act on the blood, and when
purified from catarrh poison the secre-
lions from the mucous membrane will
become natural and healthy.
There are q. number of excellent inter
nal remedies for catarrh, but probably
the best, and certainly the safest, is a
new remedy composed of Eucalyptol.
Iydrasun, Sanguinaria and other catarrh
specifics This remedy is in tablet form,
peasant TO the taste and sold by drug
gistS under name of Stuart'S Catarrh

catarrh may use these tablets with absO-

A leading druggist in Cleveland, speak
ing of catarrh cures, says: Il have sold
various catarrh cures for years, but have
never sold any which give such general
satisfaction as Stuart's' Catarrh Tablets.
They contain, in a pleasant concentrated
form, all the best and latest catarrh rem
edies, and catarrh sufferers who have
used douches, sprays and salves have
been astonished at the quick relief and
permanent results obtained after a week $
use of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets.
