With sword or nobler pen

But deep in walled-up woman's heart
a'Of women that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part
Lo there is the battlefield.

No banner, to gleam and wave

La Grippe Is Infectious but Not COnta

Contagious diseases are communicated
from one person TO another; infectious
diseases are conveyed through the air.
Smallpox is contagious disease; In
Grippe is infectious. When an epidemic
OF the grip is prevailing ii lie in the air
we breathe and no one Is safe.
The only safeguard 10 to keep the
system Ia the highest possible condition
of health and on the first appearance Of
a cold in the head TO use some safe
antiseptic like Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
freely, 8 tablet taken every hour or two
Tor couple OF days will be sufficient to
break up the attack.
La Grippe attacks the weakest part OF
the system, il MAJ be the lungp, heart,
liver stomach or Kidneys but wherever II
finally locates IL almost invariably
starts with cold in the head and throat
or in other words, the disease at the be.
ginning ie acute catarrh
This is the reason StnaTt's Catarrh
Tablets have been 30 successful in break.
| ing uP attacks OF grip. The antiseptic
properties OF the remedy destroy the
germs before the whole system l.
throughly infected.
DIR. Admission Gays: STARTS Catarrl.
Tablets being free from cocaine and
harmful drugs should be freely used at
this time Of year on the first appearance
Of grip symphonic.

They are composed OF autiseptic and
may be used by little children as freely
as by adults aud with great benefit.
