Eighteen of the counties show "a de-

turned so far is $7,910,464. 1t is safe

POINTS OF EXCELLENCE.
A Few Reasons Which are Rapidly Max
ing a New Catarrh Cure Famous.


Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, the new Ca
tarrh cure has the following advantages
over other catarrh remedies.
First: These tablets contain no CO.
caine, morphine or any other injurious
drug and are as safe and beneficial for
children as for adults; this is an inn
portant point when it is recalled that
many catarrh remedies do contain these
very Objectionable ingredients.
Next: Being in tablet form this rene
dy does not deteriorate with age, or an
exposure to the air as liquid preparations
invariably do.
Next: The tablet form not only pre-
serves the medicinal properties but it is
so far more convenient to carry and to
use at any time that it is only a cues
ton of time when the tablet will entirely
supersede liquid medicines as it has al
ready done in the medical department of
the United States army
Next: No secret is made of the COM
position of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets; they
contain the active principle of Eucalyp-
tus bark, red gum. blood root and Hy-
drastin, all harmless antiseptics which,
however, are death to catarrhal germs
wherever found, because they eliminate
them from the blood.
Next: You can not touch catarrh by
local applications to the nose and throat,
because these are simply local symptoms
and such treatment can not possibly
reach the real seat of catarrhal disease
which is the blood; for this reason, inhal-
ers, douches, sprays and powders never
really cure catarrh, but simply give tenn
porary relief which a dose of plain salt
and water will do just as we'll.
Catarrh must be diven out of the sys-
TEN, out Of the blood, by an internal rem
edy because an internal remedy is the
| only kind which can be assimilated into
| the blood.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets do this better
than the old form of treatment because
they contain every safe specific known to
modern science in the antiseptic treat
/ ment Of the disease.
| Next: The use of inhalers and spray
! ing apparatuses. besides being ineffec-
tive and disappointing is expensive, while
| a complete treatment of Stuart's Catarrh
/ Tablets can be had at any drug store in
| the United States and Canada for SO
! cents

What Are Stronger Than Facts?

Aulander, N. c., Oct. 10, 1900.
TO Mrs. Joe Person:
My little boy was sorely troubled with
impurities of the blood, and the result
was boils and sores on his body to such
an extent that he could not rest while
lying on his back or side, but for three
weeks he had to lie with his face down,
and turn his head from side to side to
rest it. After consulting a prominent
physician he told me to try your Remedy,
which 1 did. After using it short time
he was completely cured, and his general
health restored.
At the same time that my little boy
was afflicted with these sores and boiIs,
his bowels were in a very bad condition.
and this medicine effected COMP lete
cure of them.
l recommend said medicine as a Great
Remedy, and would not be without 1t 10
my home.
