the washes, douches powders and inhal- CTS in common use are very little, If any, better than the old fashioned salt water douche.
 The use of inhalers and the application of salves, washes and powders to the nose and throat to cure catarrh is no more reasonable than to rub the back to cure kidney disease. Catarrh is just as mucn a blood disease as kidney trouble or rheumatism and 1t cannot be cured by local treatment any more than they can be.
 To euro catarrh, whether in the head, throat or stomach an internal antiseptic treatment is necessary to drive the ca tarrhal poison out of the blood and sys- tenn, and the new catarrh cure Is design ed on this plan and the remarkable sue cess of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets Is be- cause being used internally 1t drives out catarrhal infection through action upon stomach, liver and bowels.
 Wm. Zimmerman of St. Joseph, relates an experience with catarrh which is of value to millions of catarrh sufferers ev- anywhere. He gays: '1 neglected slight nasal catarrh until 1t gradually extended to my throat and bronchial tubes and finally even my stomach ana liver became affected, bu. as l was able to keep up and do a days work l let it run along until my hearing began to fan mo and then l realized that l must get rid of catarrh or lose my position as I was clerk and my hearing was absolutely neces- sary.
 Some of my friends recommended an inhaler, another catarrh salve but they were no good my case, nor was any thing else until I heard of Stuarts Ca- tarrh Tablets and bought a package at my drug store. They benefited me from the start and in less than four months I was completely cured or catarrh although had suffered nearly all my life from it.
 They are pleasant to take and so much more convenient to use than other ca tarrh remedies that I feel I cannot say enough in favor of Stuart Tablets"
 A little book on cause and cure of ca- tarrh will De mailed free by addressing F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall. Mich. and the tablets are sold by all druggists in the United States and Canada.

Birmingham and those who witnessed the performances the past week were highly pleased with the work of the artists

 Few people who saw "The Charity Ba1l' last week realize the expense there is attached to such presentation. But Messrs Boyle and Edwards are determ- ined that they will keep their promise to the playgoers of Birmingham and give them more than their moneys worth They have secured the right to present the entire number of recent European and American successes-among them 'The Little Monster, L'Aiglon," ''The Great Ruby" 'Prodigal Daughter and others
 This week "The Silver King" in which Wilson Barrett starred for number Of years will be the bill. This play is full of heart interest The company are all we'll fitted to their respective parts and a finished performance can be looked for.

she became a great favorite with the atre-goers, and the fine quality of her performance attracted a very great deal of attention.
 Last season Miss Thurston was the Madge Chiselhurst with Mrs. Le Moyne in "The Greatest Thing in the World" Messrs. Frank J. and Claxton Wilstach, who have travelled extensively, one as business manager of Viola Allen, the oth- CT in the same capacity with Jefferson De Angelis Marguerite Sylva and other prominent stars, were impressed with the widespread favorable comments they heard of Miss Thurstons popularity, her beauty and native talents. With an eye out for business possibilities, they ar ranged a contract to star Miss Thurs ton for number of years, and selected Sweet Clover" a play which they judge to be of exceptional dramatic interest, with which to establish her permanently in the favor of the best class of theatre goers. To further this end, the Wilstachs are accredited with having assembled well balanced company of players with especial aptitude for portraying the va rious characters of the play, which will be presented with special scenery and costumes.
