ROOSEVELT REPLIED TO SEIZURE.

Chicago, Oct. G.-CouCiuliug the pro-
graIcme OF d busy dag o. campaigning.
Roosevelt tonight addressed two Chicago
audiences. which crowded both the Coli
scum and First Regiment ATmoTy, yet M
had to disapIoInt several thousand persons
on vhOm the doors were closed after the
biz buildings were filed.
When the train rolled into the depot. the
party aboard. among whom we're Governor
Roosevelt. Senator Hanna, Senator CGllom
and Richard Yates. candidate for Governor,
received . mighty cheer. Hundreds "f ts'-
publican club members. mounted Uul ia
Khaki uniforms. were formed in linz. and
the Governor was escorted 10 the AUdituri-
TN Hotel. whe:e he took dinner.
While the throng AT tho Coliseum awaited
the national candidate, various speaker
occupied the platform.
The Governor. near whom sat various
members Of the Republican National Com
mittee, and a large representation OF tho
Hamilton CLUB: was Introduced by PlesI-
dent Bangs OF that cluL.
Among other things, Ny. Roosevelt said:
Mr.. SchCrz, than whom no one man in
1895 used more violent language concerning
Mr.. Bryan. Is now supporting him. or what
is practically the same thing. Is OPPOSING
President Mckinley on account OF the P!l-
ippine policy. Nr. Schurz has stated that
HIS blood boiled at our misconduct in the
taking of the Philippines. and that he dc

Of any civilized nation the parallel In point

verse Of Infamous and therefore cannot be
par1ileled by any net Of infamy. But ac-
Ceptins Mr.. Schurz's Technology, II may be
pointed out that infinitely Eraver criticism
can justly be. passed Epon the dealings Of
this nation with the Sioux and Nez Perces
during the administration OF President
HAYES. Of which Mr.. SchUrZ Was a member,
than can he passed upon any of our dealings
with the Tagals under President Mckinley.
THE parallel between the Sioux and the
Tagals = not unfair. and Aguinaldo proh9-

infinitely below Chief Joseph. and the Noe

Mr.. Schurz was then in power and he could
then have shown the fsith that was in him
by striking deeds OF the kim which he now

IL he is right in his present attitude. IL
WAS lis duty at that time TO leave Presi-

THEORIES ABOUT CATARRH.
Peculiar Ideas Regarding n Common
Disease

Mark Twain's cure for cold in the head
was simple. but he claims very effective In
his own case, his plan was 10 eat nothing
whatever for twenty-fGur hours or presu-
mabIy until the trouble had disappeared.
Although not able TO speak from personal
experience as to the effectiveness Of this
treatment, II certainly has the merit of ek-
tr.me economy, but it occurs to US that the
application OF II 70 a case OF nasal ca'arrh
might be attended with difficulties.
Catarrh, as everyone knows, Is a chronic
cold in the head. and Mr.. Twain's treat
ment, If il should become a tad. would
make OF US u nation of %fasters: an army
emulating the example Of the immortal
Tanner. who achieved worldwide fame by
Catarrh is certainly becoming a national
disease and there is little doubt but that
errors in diet, particularly over eating. is
a very common cause.
Most people, however. are more interest
ed in the cure of the trouble than in the
cause, and modern medical science has pro-
duced more effective and less heroic RENE
dies than MIR. Twain's.
Guaiacol is a new remedy; very effective
In some forms of Cstarrh. Eucalyptol is
another which on account Of its antiseptic
properties is very valuable, while many
severe cases Of Chronic Catarrh have been
entirely cured by the sanguinaria- or eG-
tract of blood root. alone.
Within a year an enterpriSing chemist has
form. palatable and convenient and the
superiority of this tablet over other catarrh
remedies is so apparent that all druggists
now carry them Ia stock TO supply the pop
ular demand.
They are called Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
and it is doubtful If any medicine has
achieved a national popularity in SO short
a time as this.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are used by
thousands Of travelling men because they
can be carried In the pocket and used any
time and In any quantity. being free from
cocaine. opiate or any poisonous drug.
They clear the head and throat from the
disgusting secretions Of catarrh, very often
in a few hours time.
For nasal estarrh they are far superior to
any wash. lotion or the use OF
which is often as inconvenient and annoy
ing as the disease itself.
For coughs. colds. bronchial catarrh and
catarrh of the stomach these tablets give
immediate relief and a permanent cure
where lotions. douches and inhalers make
no impression whatever.
This preparation is a boon to catarrh suf-
ferers. ana any druggist will tell you that
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets Is a remedy that
has come to stay.
