join with the paving on Tenth street.

While George Brandt. whose home
is at the corner of Fourteenth and
Rock Island streets. is hunting
moose up along the line between
Maine and Canada, the Canadian au-
thorities, according to a dispatch re
ceivcd in the city yesterday, are
hunting for Mr.. Brandt. This gentle
man * the western manager of the
Royal Baking Powder company and
is "a brother-in-law of William Zieg-
Ter, president of that very wealthy
corporation. Mr.. Brandt. in company
with Mr.. Ziegler and Judge Gamer. of
New York, left for the northern part
of Maine about the middle of last
month. Their intention then was to
hunt moose in the swampS of that
region until sometime in the latter
part of December. Beyond the tcle-
gram received in the city yesterday,
nothing is known of the success of
the party in the chase of the game
they went after. Those claiming to
know are authority for the statement
that the slaughter of moose is abso-
lutely prohibited by the Canadian
laws. These knowing persons also
state that il is probable many of the
mounted specimens of this kind of
animal now to be found i'm museums
throughout the United States were
secured by the violation of the Can
adian game laws.

their client, Edward Alday, whose pc
tition states he was married to the
defendant, Amanda Alday at Lake
field, Mimi, ten years ago, and lived

cause of that tragedy, that she broke
into the house formerly occupied by

Catarrh is at home anywhere and every

changeable climates. it is by no means
confined to them, but is prevalent In
every state and territory in the union.
The common definition Of catarrh IS
chronic cold in the head. which II long
neglected often destroys the sense Of
smell and hearing; but there are many
ether fo-ms Of the disease, even more
obstinate and dangerous
Catarrh Of the throat and bronchial
tubes as well as catarrh OF the stomach
and liver are almost as common as nasal
catarrh and generally more difficult to
cure.
Catarrh Is undoubtedly a blood disease
and can only b successfully eradicated
by an internal treatment; sprays. washes
and powders are useless as far as reach
ing the real seat Of the disease is con
cerned.
Or. AIcIverney advises catarrh suffer-
ers TO use a new preparation, sold by
druggists. called Stuarts Catarrh Tab
lets. because actual analysis has shown
these tablets 10 contain certain anti-sep-
tic qualities Of the highest value and he
ing an internal remedy. pleasant 20 the
taste, convenient and harmless. can be
used as freely as required, as vel for
children as for adults.
An attorney and public speaker, who
had been catarrh sufferer for years
says:
Every fall 7 would catch a cold which
would settle in my head and throat and
hang on all winter long and every winter
it seemed to get a little worse was
continually clearing my throat and my
voice became effected to such an extent
as to interfere with my public speaking.

and sometimes got relief, but only for
short time, until this winter. when

Catarrh Tablets. through a newspaper
advertisement Two fifty cent boxes
which I bought at my druggists, cleared
my head and throat in fine shape and to
guard against a return of my old trouble
keep a box Of the tablets on hand and
whenever 7 catch a little cold Z take a
tablet or two and ward off any serious
velopments."
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets deserve to
head the list as household remedy. to
check and break up coughs and colds,
because unlike many other catarrh and
cough cures these tablets contain no
opiate, cocaine or any injurious drug
