him by his employers as an evidence

writing the greatest amount of insur-
ance in q specified time. While Mr..
Wheelan did not pretend to take part
in the contest, as the date for the
awarding of the prizes neared to his
surprise he received a letter from
headquarters reminding him that if
he maintained his pace to the end he
stood a good show of finishing pretty
close to the winner.
And he was all the more surprised
when a letter came to him apprising
him that a watch was being made for
him, that he had come so near to the
prize winners without apparent eff
fort that the company considered him
a risk above the ordinary. The watch
bears the owners monogram, III. l..

NO ARGUMENT NEEDED.
Every Sufferer from Catarrh Il COWS that
SAIves, Lotions, Washes, sprays and
DOuches do Not Cure

Powders, lotions, salves, sprays and
inhalers cannot really cure Catarrh
because this disease is a blood dis
ease, and local applications, if they
acc 0mplish anything at all, simply
give transient relief
The catarrhal poison is in the blood
and the mucous me IL brane of the
nose, throat and trachea tries to re-
lieve the system by secreting large
quantities of mucous, the discharge
sometimes closing up the nostrils,
dropping into the throat, causing
deafness by closing the Eu .tachiau
tubes, and after q time causing Ca
tarrh of stomach or serious throat
and luug troubles.
A remedy to really cure catarrh
must be an internal remedy which
will cleanse the blood from catarrhal
poison and remove the fever and con-
gestion from the mucous membrane.
The best and most modern remedies
for this purpose are antiseptics sci
entifically known as Eucalyptol, Qua
iacol. Ssnguinara and Hydrastin, and
while each of these has been success
fully used separately, yet it has been
difficult 10 get them all com bined in
one palatable. convenient and efficient
form.
The manufacturers of the new
catarrh cure, Stusrt's Catarrh Tab
let's, have succeeded admirably in &C
complishiDg this result. They are
large. pleasant tasting lozenges, to be
dissolved in the mouth, thus reaching
every part of the mucous membrane
of the throat aud finally the stomach
Unlike many catarrh remedies.
Stuart's CAtarrh Tablets contain no
cocaine, opiate or any injurious drug
whatever and are equally beneficial
for little children and adults.
c. K. Rembrandt of Rochester,
N Y. says: 81 know few people
who have suffered as much as L from
catarrh of the head, throat and stom-
ach. 1 used sprays, inhalers and
powders for months at q time with
only slight relief, and had no hope of
cure. l had not the means to make a
change of climate, which seemed my
only chance of cure.
''Last spring read an account of

druggist and obtained such positive
benefit from that one package that /
continued to use them daily until l

the catarrh, has greatly improved

treatment and for convenience,
safety and prompt results they are

Health Department Imp ovements.
The recommendations in the fol-
lowing communication from Health
Commissioner De Silva were adopted:
The department of health is sadly in
need of suitable quarters for the lab
oratory work essential to the proper
discharge of the duties pertaining to
the Office of the commissioner of
health. Your commissioner is very
anxious to have a proper room a.
signed i'm mediately to this department
in order that he may take up at once
a systematic daily examination of the
milk supplied to the people of the
city. With the apparatus now in the
possession of the city your commits
sioner feels that with the expenditure
of sum not exceeding 800 he can
immediately equip a laboratory for
milk analysis. We would suggest
immediate enactment of a milk ordi-
nance preventing the adulteration of
milk by the addition of coloring mat
ter or of other preservatives. With
good laboratory facilities this depart
protect in large measure the health
OF our citizens Your commissioner
feels that the favorable consideration
of this request will result in great
good aud thus you will lay broad
foundations for the future policy and
development of this department.
