There is more Catarrh in this section
OF the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years it was supposed TO be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing TO cure with local treat
ment, pronounced il incurable. Science
has proven catarrh TO be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by +. j. Cheney q Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken inter-
nally in doses from 10 drops TO a tea
spoonful. II acts directly ON the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
cese IL fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.

ran Paine,s bridge.

Al piece OF cable recently found In a
historic dwelling at the Falls Of
Schuylkill recalls the first suspension
bridge OF a single arch ever attempted
In this country. The idea originated
with Thomas Paine. 'the great COM
moner of mankind" while he was
spending the summer of 1885 at the
hotel near the falls Of Schuykill. The
idea was suggested to him by the
mechanism Of spider web, and he be-
gan to work upon plans for an iron
bridge to span the river at that point.
To lay his model before the French
Academy of Science, Paine went to
France in 1857. but that country was
already on the road to revolution, and
had no time for the study of bridges.
In England Paine forgot his scientific
mission and became absorbed In polit-
ical affairs, which ended with his i'm
prisonment and gave to the world The
Rights of Man, but lost to it for many
years advanced scientific bridge-build-
ing ng.--Pniladelphia Record.
