1T is IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking Whe
USING Catarrh Medicines.

OSH1A SdldFTIl mGulSliSS'
Catarrh is the short route to consump
tion. and the Importance of carly and judi
cious treatment Of catarrh, whether loca
ted in the head, throat OF bronchial tubes
can not be too nongly emphasized.
The HIST of catarrh cures Is as long as
the moral law and the forms in which they
are administered numerous and confusing
from sprays, inhalers washes, oinimcnts
and savcS to powders, liquids and tablets
The tablet form Is undoubtedly the most
convenient and most effective, but with
nearly all advertised catarrh remedies II Is
almost entirely matter of guess work as
to What YOU are taking into your system
us the proprietors, while making all sor
Sc. c,dll..a as 10 what their medicines VII
do Away Keep II close secret as to what
they are.
The success and popularity of the new
caiarrh cure StuarrS tatarrh Tablets, Is
but because catarrh sufferers who use these
tablets know what they are taking int,
their systems. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
Guacol and similar valuable and antsep
tie Ingredients and are pleasant to the
taste and being dissolved in the mouth
they take immediate effect upon the nu
cous lining OF the throat nasal passages
and whole respiratory tract
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
have accomplished IN old chronic cases al
catarrh are little short of remarkable, and
the advantage Of knowing what YOU arr
putting i9to your stomach is of paramount
Importance when 1t Is remembered that
the cocaine or morphine habit has been
frequently contracted as the result of using
secret catalrh remedies.
Stuart's Catarrh 'lablcts meet with cor
dial approrai. from physicians. because
fectly. safe for the general public to ust
and their composition makes them Il com
mon sense cure for all forms of catarrhal
troubles.

Salem people turning out by the hun
jreds and making the evening a great
-ocial gathering.
There has never been a more popular
attraction offered the public than the
Gloe club and quartet, managed by Mr..
Eppley of this city. The people simply
cannot get enough Of their singing, and
they respond go generously to sncores
that they almost spoil the program for
any minor performer such az an editor
or band Mrs. Hinges retains all her
old'time popularity, and sang in her best
form and voice the melodies the people
love TO hear. Mr.. Judah's new song was
rendered for the first time and proves
him a master at the very difficult art Of
writing songs that appeals TO the hearts
Of the people. But they were thrilled
and only regretted that his production
was so short. Its rendition was given
the hoartiest encore of any solo OF the
evening, and the most perfect inter.
probation was placed on the words and
melody furnished by Mr.. j. Carylisls
Denton, by such An artistas Mrs, Hinges,
the effect was not TO be wondered at
A delicious banquet was rendered the
State Press Association, through the
Offices of the Salem Press Club by the
State Fair managers, aud the manner in
which II was served by the ladies OF the
St. Joseph's restaurant, left nothing to
be desired. The evening was concluded
by informal toasts, to which many OF the
visitors responded, and the local talent
bore it's part in the usual satisfactory
manner. For an impromptu affair, got
up on the shortest notice, all went of
with the best OF good taste and splendid
feeling. There was fine attendance OF
ladies and gentleman connected with the
press OF the state.
Salem Day at the Fair.
This 10 Salem day at the State Fair
and many Of the principal business
houses have closed and have gone en-
masse 10 the fair in spite Of the threat
ening showers. The $1,000 purses that
are to be raced for are the great drawing
card and in addition TO the large crowds
turned out every evening by the people
of Salem the attendance this afternoon
from the city is very good. The fact is
the fair has been made 80 comiortablo
and the exhibits in all departments
under roof are 40 good that one can put
in the day very .proftably in spite OF
rain. SO far, it has been Salem day at
the fair every day.
