CHANGE OF CLIMATE

Not Necessary In Order to Cure Cstarrh.
The popular idea that the only cure
for chronic catarrh is change of eli.
mate is a mistake. because catarrh is
found in all climates in all sections of
the country; and even if change of
climate should benefit for time the
catarrh will certainly return.
Caiarrh 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 perma-
nent cure, as they do not reach the
seat of the disease, which is in the
blood and can be reached only by an
internal remedy which acts through
the stomach upon the blood and sys-
tenn generally.
A new discovery which is meeting
with remarkable success in curing
catarrh of the head, throat and bron-
chial tubes and also catarrh of the
stomach. is sold by druggists under
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets which are pleasant
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 valuable antisep-
tics are combined inconvenient, pala-
table tablet form, and as valuable for
children as for adults.

my business affairs would not permit
me to take.
My nostrils were almost always
clogged up, and / had to breathe
through the mouth, causing an in

of eating breakfast often nauseated
me and the catarrh gradually getting
into my stomach took away my appe-
tite and digestion.
My druggist advised me to try 80

because he said he had so many Gus
toners who had been cured of catarrh
by the use of these tablets that he felt
he could honestly recommend them.

.B0ERENVOY PROTESTS
Says the Recent Reported Peace
Movement of Burghers
Is of No Use.
ooPPERHEADs OF THE TRANsvAAL
Without Influence with the Fighters,
He Declares Them-As to
a. Kitchener's Speech.

New York, Jan. 10-Montagu
White. the representative of the South
African Republic, said yesterday that
he thought no Importance should be
attached to the reports and proceed
ings of so-called Boer peace commit
tees at Kroonstad, and Lord Kitchen
er's recent speech at the burgher's
meeting near Pretoria. 1T is per-
these Beers who have surrendered
voluntarily TO the British and who
have taken the oath of neutrality
should be most anxious to return to
their farms. but they have less infiu-
ence with the fighting burghers than
the British soldiers who are opposing
them. Their Intervention, therefore,
would be less acceptable than say
that of the 'Copperheads' during the
American civil war, or the loyalists
during the war of independence.
Wants to Know " What Terms"
Il dismiss the idea that these peace
overtures are beng exploited for home
consumption in England or for the
purpose of influencing foreign opinion,
and hope that the publication of such
reports is only evidence of a wiser
policy on the part of the British gov
eminent. As the names of Botha and
DeWet are mentioned in connection
with these SO-called peace meetings, it
is as well to state that these names
are almost as common in South At
RIGA as those of Brown and Robinson
in England ''The Beers are urged
to accept the terms offered by the
British. What terms? Beyond the
recent rumors from London that the
policy of unconditional surrender has
been abandoned we are in ignorance
as to the nature of the terms offered.
Would Welcome Equitable Settlement"
Every one will welcome an equit-
able settlement by which this deplora-
BILE tragedy in South Africa can be
satisfactorily ended, but l must pro-
test against these so-called overtures
being seriously accepted as indicating
any relaxation of the purpose of those
in the field to continue the war until
equitable terms have been obtained"

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FrGs, manufactured by the
CALIFoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.
