WASHINGTON, Nov. Things are
goingto wreck and ruin in China" said
a high official this morning. Looks as
though the ENJOYS are purposely trying
to force China to fight so an opportunity
could be afforded to divide the empire.
Demands are being made that are such
as China cannot comply with. The
emperor is in the hands of General Tung
Fuh Slang and Prince Tuan and any step
he might take to comply with the foreign
ers demands would cause his death.
General Tung has an army Of several
hundred thousand and the question is,
how can the emperor decapitate such a
a man? Unless more moderate councils
prevail the emperor will be compelled to
join the princes and fight the allied
powers. That would mean an uprising
in the whole of China and bloody war.
The United States will use every power
to prevent this elimination.

you CAN CURE II.
4 New Cure for Catarrh In Tablet
Form.


Form.
The old time treatment for
catarrh was In the form of douches
or sprays; later on, internal rem
edies were given with greater sue
cess, but being in liquid or pow
dered form were inconvenient and
were open to the same objection
to all liquid remedies, that is, that
they lose whatever medicinal
power they may have had on ex-
posture to the air.
The tablet is the ideal form in
which to administer medication,
but until recently no successful
catarrh tablet had ever been at
tempted.
At this writing, however, Almost
excellent and palatable remedy for
catarrh has been placed before the
public and sold by druggists,
called Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
composed of the most, recent dis
coveries in medicines for the cure
of catarrh, and results from their
use have been highly gratifying.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain
principally highly concentrated
antiseptics. which kill the catarrh
germs in the blood and mucous
membrane, and in this respect are
strictly scientific and modern, as
it has been known for some years
past by the ablest physicians that
the most successful catarrh treat
ment was by inhaling or spraying,
antiseptics.
The use of inhalers, douches and
sprays, however, is a nuisance and
Inconvenience, and moreover can
in no wise compare with the same
remedies given in tablet, form,
either in efficacy or convenience.
A clerk in a prominent insurance
Office in Pittsburg relates his ex-
perience with Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets in few words but to the
point. He says: "Catarrh has
been almost constantly with me
for eight years; in this climate it
seems impossible to get rid of it.
/ awoke every morning stuffed up
and for the first half hour it was
cough, gag, expectorate and
sneeze before ! could square my
self for my days work; no appe-
tite, and foul breath which
annoyed me exceedingly.
II used Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
for two months and found them
not only pleasant to take but they
did the business. and | can sim
cerely recommend them to all
catarrh sufferers"
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets at so cents for full sized
package. They can be carried in
the vest pocket and used at any
time and as often as necessary.
Guaranteed free from cocaine,
mercury or any mineral poison,
absolutely safe.
