CHANGE or CLIMATE


IOt Necessary In Order to Cur
Catxrrh.
The popular idea that the only
cure for chronic catarrh is
change of climate, is a mistake be-
cause catarrh is found in all cli-
mates in all sections of the coun-
try; and even if a change OF CHI
mate should benefit for a time the
catarrh will certainly return.
Catarrh may be readily cured In
any climate. but the only way to
do it is to destroy or remove from
the system the catarrhal germs
which cause all the mischief.
The treatment by inhalerS,
sprays, powders and washes has
been proven almost useless in
making a permanent cure, as they
do not reach the seat of disease,
which is in the blood and can be
reached only by an internal rem
edy which acts through the stom-
ach upon the blood and system
generally.
A new discovery which is meet
ing with remarkable success in
curing catarrh OF the head, throat
and bronchial tubes and also ca
tarrh Of the stomach, is sold by
druggists under name of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets which are pleas
ant and harmless to take owe their
efficiency TO the active medicinal
principles of Blood Root, Red
Gum and a new specific called
Guaiacol, which together with val
liable antiseptics are combined in
convenient, palatable tablet form,
and as valuable for children as for
adults.
Mr.. A. R. Fernbank, Of Column
bus, Ohio, says: | suffered so many
winters from catarrh that / took
1t as a matter of course. and that
nothing would cure it except
change of climate, which my bus
mess affairs would not permit me
to take.
Ny nostrils were almost always
clogged UP. l had to breathe
through the mouth, causing an
infamed, irritated throat. The
thought of eating breakfast often
nauseated me and the catarrh
gradually getting into my stomach
took away my appetite and diges-
ton.
Ny druggist advised me to try a
fifty-cent box of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets. because he said he had so
many customers who had been
cured of catarrh by the use Of these
tablets, that he felt he could hon
estly recommend them. | took his
advice and used several boxes with
results that surprised and delight
ed me- 'ta '"S
l always keep a box of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets in the house and
the whole family use them freely
on the first appearance of a cough
or cold in the head.
With our children we think
there is nothing so safe and reli-
able as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
to ward off Group and colds and
with older people l have known
Of cases where the hearing had
been seriously impaired by chronic
catarrh cured entirely by this new
remedy.

MAD DOG KILLED
After Alarming Farmers in the vi

Damage.

After Alarming Farmers in the Vi
cinity Of Dallas, and Doing Some
Damage.
A mad dog which had developed
symptoms of hydrophobia was hunted
down and finally killed by an armed
body of men in West Finley township,
Washington county, Pa, on Tuesday OF
this week. about two days previous
to this time the dog, which had been
acting strangely for a short time, bit
it's owner, William Miller, a farmer re-
siding about four miles southeast of
Dallas, Marshall county, w. Va, and
before it could be despatched left, go

V. Sprowls, about one mile distant,
where it made an attack on Mr..
Sprowls' oldest son Lynn, who, seeing
that the dog was apparently mad, has
tily prepared to meet the brute and at
least drive it away, which he succeeded
in doing without receiving any injuries.
The enraged canine then Travelled to-
ward the State line about a mile and
a half, and gave drove OF young cat

lively chase. doing no damage aside
from soaring the cattle. It's next move
was to attack a drove Of cattle owned
by A. w. Danley. a stock dealer, who
resides near the village of huntsville.
After chasing Mr.. Danley's drove for
some time, it succeeded In tearing an
ear off of one Of his best steers. This
last act happened about six o'clock in
the evening, and all traces of the dog
were lost for the night.
The news that a mad dog was roam
ing in the neighborhood created con-
siderable CONSERVATION among the resi-
dents of West Finley township, and of
persons residing in Marshall county,
in the sections contiguous TO the scene
of the excitement and caused diligent
search to be made for the dog the next
day, but to no avail. The farmers OF
the whole community kept yigilant
watch over their stock. Meanwhile
they were prepared TO despatch any
strange dog. On the second day after
the exciting scenes as given above, one
section of the vigilance committee dis
covered the animal which had been the
cause Of the profound anxiety on the
part of the men, women and children
of the community near the home Of its
owner. It is needless to state the dog
was instantly killed

BALLOT COMMISSIONERS.
THEIR MEETING, TO HAVE BEEN
HELD LAST NIGHT, HAS BEEN
POSTPONED
UNTIL THIS AFTERNOON.

Both sides Be Present-Mr. Ritz

Municipal Politics and Politicians.
General Political Gossip.

The city ballot commissioners were
to have met last evening in the Office
OF the city clerk, for the purpose of
preparing the tickets for the coming
municipal election. Cne Republican
commissioner is VIM. E. lowers, the
Democratic commissioner Geo. Nv. Rob-
inson, and the city clerk is Tie third.
The commissioners were present, but
the meeting was deferred until after
the Council meeting, which was pro-
tracted until such late hour that the
meeting of the commissioners was
postponed until this afternoon at three
O'clock
The commissioners will have a prob
lem which has never before been pre-
sented, and which may not be solved
until the courts have acted. w. P. Nc
kelvey and H. w. Gartley, members of
the First Branch of Council from the
Seventh and Sixth wards respectively,
died during their incumbency, and Jos.
Beuter, of the Fourth ward. resigned.
Messrs. Gartley and Beuter were Demo-
Gratis The Republicans were in the
majority and filed all the vacancies
with Republicans. AL were hold-over
members, whose terms would not have
expired until 1908.
Democrats contend that the yacan-
cies occasioned by death and resigna-
ton could not legally exist longer than
the next general election, and in THIS
view of the case made nominations for
hA oh, h. l. L. III
Republicans opposed this position and
made no nominations.
When the commissioners meet this
afternoon the Democrats will present
their short term candidates and ask
that their names be printed on the Off
cial ballots. lnasmucn as, Mr. Robin
son represents one side and Mr.. Bow
ers the other, Mr. O1Brien will be called
upon to decide the disputed point. This
Mr.. OBrien does not care to do, pre-
ferring that the two committees reach
a decision if possible, or that the courts
settle the question. He~is placed in an
embarrassing position in having to
pass upon legal quest4on. If he is
guided by the advice of the City Solic-
luor there will be two votes in the COM
mlssioners against printing the names.
AT the meeting this afternoon S. o.
iBoyce will represent the Republicans
and John J. Coniff will appear for the
Democrats.
IN } event of a refusal by the ma
jorl,y OIL commissioners to print the
names of short term candidates upon
the official ballots, the next step will
PROBABLY be an application to the Cir
cut court for a writ of mandamus TO
compel the commissioners to do so.
The question will thus be settled in
the courts, and a precedent will be es-
tablished for the government O. Coun-
