A local dentist was sitting at his
desk in his Water street Office the 9TH
er evening. when, glancing up from his
work. he saw a big rat perched on the
edge of the desk not y yard away
and looking him full in the face. Before
he had recovered from his astonish-
ment. MIR. Rat Slid gently down to the
floor and was off out of sight. Since
that evening the animal has frequently
put in an appearance, and in spite of
forceps and other handy instruments
that have been hurled at him he still
persists in calling. Mr.. fears
that such q fixture in his Office may be
had for his business. particularly as
far as the ladies are concerned, and is
therefore cunning for that rat. Up tt
last accounts the miscreant was still
at liberty.

The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
