LIVE STOCK SUFFERING
For Want of Food in Some InteriO
Counties.

For Want of Food in Some Interior
Counties.
Special to the Register.
HUNTINGTON, ". Va, March 21.-
There is considerable suffering among
cattle and horses in some sections of
the interior counties caused by the
scarcity of hay, fodder and any other
kind of ''roughness." The hay crop
was a failure last season and there was
a very short corn crop, due to the
very dry weather, but there was
enough feed for stock until within the
past few weeks, when expected
the weather would moderate and give
their cattle a chance to run on pasture.
Instead of that the animals have had
to contend with the bitterest kind of
weather and with little feed, which
causes intense suffering. In some of
the counties corn is over a dollar a
bushel, and hard to get at that, and it
is Just an impossibility to get rough
ness Most of the farmers will re-
member distinctly the winter of 1882
1900 for the difficulty they experienced
in providing their animals with food
in the mountains.

BEFORE AND BEHIND THE
SCENES

Al the International Opera-"The
Long Lost A~ngIo-SaxOn Brother"
John Bull attired as a ballet dancer,
waltzes to the center OF the stage. He
makes faces at the European spectators
who, he seems to think, have some
thing concealed in their clothes-may-
be eggs. He beams upon Uncle Sam
in the most bewitching manner, losses
him a boquet and blows him a kiss
from the tips of his fat pudgy fingers.
He then takes a couple of bronchial
troches to clear his throat, coughs once
or twice, blows his nose, then raising
himself on top-toe, he clenches 10Th
fists and opens his mouth, and to the
accompaniment of a steam calliope,
sings in a stentorian voice the follow
ing touching song:
You are the wonder of the world,
Uncle Sam. Uncle SAM!
Your flag is the greatest e'er unfurled,
Uncle Sam.
Your vessels, they are corkers,
They are truly miracle workers,
Uncle Sam.
We together, darling cousin,
Could LEX nations by the dozens
So come rest upon this BOSOM,

We are Anglo-saxon daisies, and our blood
You are my well-beloved cousin, likewise

And as strange as it may seem. I'm your
mother;

Wild and t~umultuous applause from

and the Mckinley administration greet

other swallowed his monocle. In the
confusion John bowed himself off the

managers, Salisbury (not Nate), and
Chamberlain, ask: Did it catch?"

D MANY ALIASES.
An old Enemy In View Disguise

An Old Enemy In New Disguise.
1t is the popular belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply
q chronic cold in the head. This is
true as far as it goes, but as a matter
of fact catarrh is by no meal confined
to the nasal passages, but extends
wherever the mucous membrane ex-
tends, which means nearly every part
of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside
skin of the body and is nearly as tx
tensive as the outside skin, and any
inflammation of this membrane eaus-
ing an extra secretion of fluid is really
catarrh.
Catarrh is, therefore, an old enemy
disguised by many confusing names,
for instance; Rhinitis is nasal catarrh;
l~aryngitis and pharyngitis, throat
catarrh; bronchitis, bronchial catarrh;
gastritis, stomach catarrh; cystitus
and nephritis, catarrh of the bladder
and kidneys.
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 think
ing you have no catarrh because the
head and nose appear to be clear. II
there is cough, tickling in the throat,
and h%oarseness you have throat ca
tarrh; if there is nc appetite, but nau-
sea, gagging and disgust for food,
especially in the morning, you have
catarrh of the stomach.
The surest treatment for every form
of catarrh is an internal remedy which
acts especially on the blood and mu-
cous membranes; such a remedy is the
new preparation sold everywhere by
druggists under name of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, a medicine in pleasant
tablet form and containing the best
and latest specifics for catarrh.

FEW FACTS
About The New Catnrrh Cure.

The new catarrh cure is a new de-
parture in so-called catarrh cures, be-
cause It actually cures and is not simp-
ly a temporary relief.
The new catarrh cureNis not a salve,
ointment, powder. nor liquid, but a
pleasant tasting tablet containing the
best specific for catarrh in a concen-
trated convenient form.
The old style OF catarrh salves and
ointments are greasy, dirty and incon-
yenient at the best; the new prepara-
ton being in tablet form is always
clean and convenient.
The new Catarrh Cure Is superior to
catarrh powders because IL is a motor
ious fact that many catarrh powders
contain cocaine.
The new Catarrh Cure is called Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets, a wholesome
combination of blood root, beechwood
tar. guiacol and other antiseptics,
and cures by its action upon the blood
and mucous membrane, the only ra-
tional treatment for catarrh trouble.
You do not have to drag upon your
imagination to discover whether You
are getting benefit from Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets; improvements and relief
are apparent from the first tablet Ia
ken.
All druggists sell and recommend
them. They cost but so cents for full
sized packages. and any catarrh euf-
ferer who has wasted time and money
on sprays. salyes. and powders. viii
appreciate to the full the merit OF Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets.

PLAIN TALK
To Catarrh Sufferers.

Every person suffering from catarrh
in it's many forms knows that the COM
mon lotions, salves and douches do
not cure. 1t is needless to argue this
point or to cite cases of failure, be-
cause every victim of catarrhal trouble
knows it for himself if he has tried it.
A local application, if it does any
thing at all, simply gives temporary
relief; a wash lotion, salve or pow
der cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease, which is the blood.
The mucous membrane seeks to re-
lieve the blood of catarrhal poison by
secreting large quantities OF mucus,
the discharge sometimes closing up
the nostrils, descending 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 sys-
tenn from catarrhal poison and remove
the fever and congestion always pres
ent in the mucous membrane.
The best remedies for this purpose
are Eucalyptol, S~anguinaria and Hy-
drastin, but the difficulty has always
been to get these valuable curatives
combined in one palatable, convenient
and efficient form.
Recently this has been accomplished
and the preparation put on the market
under the name of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets; they are large, pleasant tast-
ing %lozenges, so that they may be
slowly dissolved in the mouth, thus
reaching every part of the mucous
membrane and finally the stomach and
intestines.
An advantage to be considered also
is that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets con-
tain no cocaine, morphine or poison
Gus narcotics, so often found in ca
tarrh 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

Very few sections of the United
States are free from catarrh in some
form.
In the Northern States it is almost
universal.
A disease so common would natural
ly give rise to a large number of So
called cures, and catarrh remedies are
offered in every form; inhalers, washes
or douches, salves, ointments, powders
and internal liquid medicines.
The latest catarrh cure is a prepa-
ration in tablet form, very pleasant to
take and, according to many recent
tests, the results have been highly
satisfactory.
Unlike patent medicine in general,
this new catarrh cure is not a secret
preparation, but the ingredients are
plainly stated.
Druggists sell the remedy under the
nam of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, and
the tablets are composed of highly con-
centrated ansiseptics, ~eucalyptol, hy-
drastin, guiacol, beechwood tar, and
several other w~ell-known catarrh spe-
cities, and the success of Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets in promptly relieving
and curing the different forms of ca
tafrh is really something remarkable.
Whether the catarrh is in the nose,
throat, bronchial tubes or stomach, the
tablets seem to act with equal success,
relieving in a few days the stuffy feel
ing in head and nose, remove the
tickling and irritation in the throat
and bronchial tubes, and a few weeks
use seem to remove completely the
hawking, splitting and other annoying
symptoms of catarrh.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are ap-
proved by physicians, because no Sc
cret is made of what they contain, and
people who suffer from catarrh should
bear in mind that many catarrh medi-
cines, powders, ointments, etc., con-
tain cocaine to such an extent, in fact,
that in many States their sale is pro-
hibited.
Largely for this eason the ingredi-
ents in Stuart's iCatarrh Tablets are
plainly stated to the public. This is
something no catarrh cure has ever
done before, and people who are care
full of what they put into their stom-
achs will fully appreciate this advan-

PURE BRED LIVE STOCK.

Special to the Register.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March I'll
An enumeration Of the pure-blood or
pure-bred farm animals in the United
States will be a part of the Twelfth
Census. The main schedule for agri-
culture provides for returning "the
number. June l., 1900. of all pure
blooded animals recorded or eligible
to record, on the farm"
While the Treasury Department, in
administering the tariff laws relative
to pure-bred animals, does not accept
the verbal statements of owners or
agents, but requires certified evidence
in writing of the pedigree claimed,
the census enumeration will be COM
PEELED to rely pretty generally If not
wholly upon verbal replies as to ,wheth-
er stock is pure bred.
The Customs Divisions of the Fed
eral Government recognizes the %certifi-
Gates Of the publishers of about eighty
American and perhaps seventy-eight
English, German, French, Belgian,
Russian, Spanish, Pomeranian, East

herd books. The census Office will, of
course, recognize the validity of the
same registers.
AS several months must elapse be-
fore the census Of live stock will be
taken, Director Merriam requests that
all who are not certain whether their
unregistered animals are grade, or
pure-bred and eligible to record. "
take steps definitely to settle the moot
ed point, and thus be prepared with

A LIFE COMPANION.
And a Very Undesirable One.

With thousands of the people in this
climate, catarrh is a constant and life
long companion; it gets better at
times, but each year become gradually
deeper seated, and after a time the
individual resigns himself to it as a
necessary evil.
Catarrh cures are almost as num-
erous as catarrh sufferers, but are
nearly all so inconvenient and inef-
fective as to render their use a null
sance nearly as annoying as catarrh
itself.
1t would seem at first glance that
catarrh being a disease of the mucous
membrane that ~salves, sprays, ETC.,
being applied directly to the mem
branes would be the most rational
method, but this has proven not to be
true.
The mucous membrane is made and
repaired from the blood ana catarril
is a blood disorder. and a remedy
to be permanent must act on the blood
and when purified from catarrh poison
the secretions from the mucous mem
brane will become natural and
healthy.

q DAILY NUISANCE.
A Simple Remedy Which VIII Inter-
est Catarrh Sufferers.

A Simple Remedy Which VIII Inter-
est Catarrh Sufferers.
In it's early stages eatarrh is more of
a nuisance than a menace to the gen.
eral health, but sooner or later the dis
eaes extends to the throat, bronchial
tubes and aver to the stomach and in
testines.
Catarrh is essentially a disease of the
mucous membrane, the local symp-
toms being a profuse discharge of mu-
.cous, stoppage OF the nostrils, irrita-
ton in throat, causing coughing, sneez-
ing, gagging and frequent clearings OF
the throat and head.
The usual treatment by local
douches, snuffs, salves, ETC., often gives
temporary relief, but anything like a
cure can only be obtained by, a treat
ment which removes the catarrh faint
from the blood and the disappearance
of the Inflammation from the mucous
surfaces.
A new remedy which meets these re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing ca
tarrh is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These Tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called a secret patent medi-
cine, as they are composed of such val
liable remedies as Sanguinaria, Hy-
drastin, Eucalyptol and similar cleans
ing antiseptics, which cure by elimi-
mating from the blood and mucous sur
faces the catarrhal poison.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozcnses taken inter-
! naIly, allowing them to Dissolve slowly
in the mouth; in this way they reach
the throat, fauces and the entire ALI
mentary canal.
If desired, they may also be dissolv-
ed in water and used as a douche, in
addition 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, a
douche made from these tablets will
give immediate relief, but the regular
daily use internally of these tablets
| will cure the whole catarrhal trouble
/ without resorting to the inconvenience
of a douche.
DR.. Bennett states that the internal
treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking
the place of the old plan of ~doucklng,
| and local application, and further says
