70 Knew what You arc Ta11n,
When Usang OatasrA Medicines.
Catarrh is the short route to
consumption, and the Importance
OF early and judicious treatment
of catarrh. whether located in the
head, throat or bronchial tube4,
cannot be too strongly emphasized.
The list of catarrh cures is as
long as the moral law and the
forms in which they are admins
tered, numerous and confusing,
from sprays, inAalers, washes, oint-
ments, and salves to powders.
liquids and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly
the most convenient and most eff
fective, but with nearly all adver-
tised catarrh remedies It Is almost
entirely a matter Of guess work
as to what you are taking into
your system, as the p~roprietors,
while making all sorts of claims
as to what their medicines will do,
always keep It a close secret as
to what they are.
The success and popularity Of
the new catarrh cure, Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, is largely because It
not only cures catarrh but because
catarrh sufferers who used these
tablets know what they are TAX
ing into their systems. Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets being composed of
Eucolyptol, Hydrastin, Guaicol and
similar valuable and ~antiseptic in
gradients, and are pleasant to the
taste and being dissolved in the
mouth they take immediate effect
upon the mucous lining Of the
throat. nasal passages and whole
respiratory tract.
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets have accomplished in old
chronic cases of catarrh are little
short of remarkable, and the ad-
vantage of knowing what you are
putting into your stomach Is of
paramount importance when it is
remembered that the cocaine or
morphine habit has been frequent
ly contracted as the result of US
ing secret catarrh remedies.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet
with cordial approval from physi-
clans, because their antiseptic
character render them perfectly
safe for the general public to use
and their composition makes them
a common sense cure for all forms
of catarrhal troubles.
All druggists sell them at so
cents for full sized package.

A PECULIAR CASE

Brought to Light ON the Ohio Side
of the River Yesterday.
Yesterday, at West Wheeling, a rath-
er peculiar ase, savoring decidedly of
kidnapping. was brought to light, the
victim being a young girl by the name
of Nixon, a school pupil of Miss Lizzie
Undertake.
The girls mother died last week,
and the child was being cared for by
Mrs. Gregory, who wished to keep her.
While the girl was in school Tuesday
she was. it is alleged, called out by Ter
half sister and grandmother, who re-

this side Of the river.
The matter has caused some COM

stated yesterday that legal proceedings
would probably grow out of what is
popularity described as an abduction.

COPPER FOUND on WOLF CREEK
Nels Jensen Is Doing a Lot Of Work
on His Property in That
Section,

Favorable reports still come from the
head Of Wolf creek and old-time pros
pectors who have been working in that
vicinity for many years say there ie no
doubt but that the Bandbox mountain
contains much mineral wealth, says the
Fergus County Argus. Nels Jensen, who
is we'll known on the upper Judith, and
by all mining men in the Belt noun
tains, has done a large amount Of eX-
ploration work on a property he located
there several years ago. A shaft was
sunk on the property to the depth cf
Is feet, tapping the ore body which lay
in a granite formation and gave an as
say which showed a large percentage in
copper and eight to ten dollars per ton
in gold. The tunnels have been run by
Mr.. Jensen, which are respectively 1000
and 500 feet. for the purpose Of running
in underneath the main body Of ore.
Immediately above this property is a
prospect lately located by party of
Finlanders who came over the mountain
from Stockett and who are now engaged
in developing the property with very
promising results. A late assay shows
IS to % per cent in copper and SO to
s12 per ton in gold. As an enormous
body Of ore has been uncovered there
is no doubt but that the property will
attract considerable attention amonS
mining men in the near future and pres
ent indications are that the discovery
will prove to be one of the most lin
portant ever made in that section of the
Belt.

London, Sept. 24.-While there is no
