CHANGE OF CLIMATE
Not Necessary in Order to Cure ca
tnrrh.

The popular idea that the only cure for
chronic catarrh is q change Of climate is
a mistake because catarrh IS found in
all climates in all sections of the coun-
Try. and even if change of climate
should benefit for 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 E.is-
chief
The treatment by fnhaiers. sprays. pow
ders. and washes has been proven almost
useless in making permanent cure, as
they do not reach the seat of disease,
which IS in the blood and can be reached
only by an internal remedy which acts
through the stomach upon the blood and
system generally.
A new discovery which is meeting with
remarkable success in curing catarrh of
the head throat, and bronchial tubes and
also catarrh of the stomach, is sold by
druggists under name of StuarJ'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 new specific called
Guaiacoi. which together with valuable
altiSeDtlcS are combined IN convenient,
palatabIe tablet form, and as valuable
for children as for adults
Mr. A r. Fernbank, OF Columbus. Ohio.
SAYS: I suffered so many winters from
Catarrh that I took it as a matter of
course. and that nothing would cure it
except change of climate which my
business affairs would not permit me to
take
Ny nostTils were almost always clog
ged up 1 had to breathe through the
mouth causing an infamed, irritated
throat The thought of eating breakfast
often nauseated me and the catarrh grad

Ny druggist advised me 10 try a fifty
cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, be-
cause he said he had so many customers
who had been cured of Catarrh by the use
of these tablets, that he felt he could

it was necessary for Ireland to push him on q,
The organist had now reached the climax
to the wild strains of the sonata. A more
inspiring scene could hardly be imagined.
lnnocently facing the assassin the President
smiled smile of dignity and benevolence
as he extended his right hand to meet the
left of the supposedly wounded fiend.
AS the youth extended his left hand he,
quick as a flash, as if trained by long prac-
tice, whipped out his right hand-the one
which held the pistol Before anyone knew
what was transporting two shots rang out,
one following the other after the briefest
portion of second.
For the first moment there was an awful
hush. The sonta died instantly, the people
stopped and could not breathe. Then there
was pandemonium. The Chief Executive,
it was known, had been shot
The President drew his right hand quick
ly to his chest, raised his head and his eyes
rolled. He swerved a moment, reeled and
was caught in the arms of Secretary Cor
telyou, to his right.
Catching himself for the brefest second
the President, whose face was now of the
whiteness of death, looked at the assassin

floor and said feebly and with the most be-
nevolent look it is possible to imagine:

and was helped to seat, where half dozen
men stood by and famed him vigorously.
Quick calls were sent for doctors and to the
ambulance.
While seated for moment Secretary Cor
telyon leaned over the President and asked {:
ado you feel much pain ?" White and
trembling, the President slipped his hand
into the opening of his shirt front near the
heart and said
"Ths wound pains greatly"
AS the President withdrew his hand the
first and second fingers were covered with
blood. He looked at them, his hand dropped
to his side, and he became fainter. His head
dropped heavily to his chest and those about
him turned away.
The Presidents head then fell backward
and he partially tainted. Mr.. Milburn
placed his hand back of the wounded mans
head and supported it. This seemed to re-
suscitate the President and he sat stoically
in the chair, his legs spread out on the floor,
his lips clinched firmly, as if he would fight
determinedly against death.
While all this was transpiring the tragedy
had not yet ended on the scene of the shoot
ing. The shots had hardly been fired when
Foster and Ireland were on top of the as
sailant. Ireland, quick as thought, had
knocked the smoking weapon from the mans
hand and at the same time he and his com
panion officer, with dozen Exposition po-
lice and as many artilerymen, were upon
the assailant. He was literally crushed to
the floor.
While the President was being led away
the artillerymen and guards cleared the
building in few moments of those who
had entered to meet the Executive, but to do
this it was necessary to draw their saber
bayonets and use extreme force.
