later addressed two large audiences in
this CITY, one at the Central armory and
the other from the balcony OF the Hol-

trance into the city by the blowing OF
whistles, and was met at the station BY
a number of marching clubs and brass
bands, Nhich formed his escort to the

MrBryan yesterday invaded the heart

in the morning his first stop was at
Canton, the presidents place Of resi-
dence. and later in the day he made
brief speech at Niles. the presidents ma
tive city. At night he spoke at Cleve-
land, Mr. Hanna's home The stops at
Canton and Niles were incidental and
the crowds were small at both places
The only important day meetings were
those at New Philadelphia and Youngs-
town At New Philadelphia there was a
big attendance, and the meeting was an
enthusiastic one. There were two meet
ingS at youngstown, one IN the pubic
SQUARE and the other at the opera house

Mr. Bryan did not leave the train at
that point, but reviewed the issues OF
the campaign in a very brief manner to
g. comparatively small number Of people
who had congregated at the railroad
station Before entering upon his speech
proper he referred to the fact that the
place was Intimately associated with
the career Of his distinguished rival for
presidential hOnors, saying
Il understand that this is the birth
place of the president of the United
States. You have the honor now of be-
ing the birth place of the president,
whether he holds one term or two. He
can not be born again and give you an
other chance You have had all you can

attracting many people to see the ma

catarrf1 is Lingering Cold which Re-

Catarrh usually starts with a cold in

AS fresh cold is taken the disease

tubes to lung cells
The mucous membranes all connect.
one with another. Hence it is easy to
spread from one part to another lined
with this same membrane. This is why
catarrh in the head soon effects the
throat and finally the stomach itself,
bringing on chronic catarrh of the stom-
ach, which IS a most obstinate form of
dyspepsia
Everybody is now well agreed that ca
tarrh is a blood disease and not a local
one, and the attempt to cure by local
applications simply gives temporary re-
lief fro mthe purely local symptom with
out the renoteSt effect in staying the
progress of the disease.
There Is new preparation recently
offered to the public that is apparently
destined to do away with every other
form Of catarrh treatment
This new remedy IS not a secret pat
ent medicine, but is a large, pleasant
tasting tablet composed Of Sauguinaria
EUcalyptoI, GuaiacoI. Hydrastin and
other valuable and harmless sueciirs
which are taken internally and seem to
have q remarkably beneficial effect m
on the blood and mucous membranes
apparently eliminating the catarrhal
poison from the whole system.
These tablets while being pleasant
convenient and absolutely safe to use
have made cures in long standing cases
Of catarrh that are little short Of mar
velous. They are sold by druggists IN
der name Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
and any catarrh sufferer who has tried
lotions, ointments, saIves. etc.
and realized their Inconvenience ana
usslessness. viii fully appreciate the diff
ference between mere palliative and a
permanent cure after giving Stuartrs
Catarrh Tablets an impartial trial
All druggists sell them at 50 cents for
full sized package and no matter where
the catarrh IS located. in the head
throat, lungs or stomach, Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets viii surprise you with the
effective results OF even a few days use.
