The year 1901, which has broken so

the gross premiums written for the

IT is IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking
When Using Catarrh Medicines.

CataTrh is the short route to con-
sumption, and the Importance of early
and Judicious treatment of catarrb
whether located in the head throat or
bronchial tubes cannot be too strong
~ emphasized.
The list Of CataTrh cures is as long
as the moral law and the forms in
which they are administered. numer-
Gus and confusing, from sprays. in
halers, washes, Ointments and saIves
to powders, liquids and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly the
most convenient and the most effective
but with nearly all advertised catarrh
remedies it is almost entirely a matter
Of guess work as to what YOU are TAX
ing into your system, as the proDrie-
tors, while making all sorts of claims
as to what their medicines will do. al
ways keep it a close secret as to what
they are
The success and popularity of the
new catarrh cure, Stuarts Catarrh
Tablets, is largely because it not only
cures cataTrh but because catarrh suf-
ferers who use these tablets know what
they are taking into their systems.
StUart's CataTrh Tablets are composed
Of Red Gum, Blood Root and similar
and are pleasant to the taste. and be-
ing dissolved in the mouth they take
immediate effect upon the mucous liH-
ing Of the throat. nasal passages and
whole respiratory tract.
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets have accomplished in old chronic
cases Of catarrh are little short Of re-
markable. and the advantage of know
ing what YOU are putting into vn1r
stomach is of paramount importance
when it is remembered that the cocaine
or morphine habit has been frequently
contracted as the result Of using secret
CatarTh remedies.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with
cordial approval from physicians. be-
cause their antiseptic character rem
der them perfectly safe for the general
public TO use and their composition
makes them a common sense cure for
all forms Of catarrhal troubles.
All druggists sell them at 80 cents for
fun sized packages.

In the case of Admiral Schley the
findings are an outrage" said Rev.
Thomas Edward Barr at the Hotel
Pfster yesterday. 1T reminds me Of a
little story I once heard. Shortly
after the close of the civil war a num-
Der of officers IF the Union army met
in the Planters hotel in st. Louis.
With the incidents of the war still
fresh in memory, they began discuss
ms the merits of General Grant as
eampaigner. Some of them were bitter
in their denunCiatiOns of the great gen
eral and tried to make out that he
was a failure as a campaigner.
General BeauTegard Of the COnfed
crate army YVES a guest at the hotel
and was sitting near the disnutants,
wnen one of them turned to him and
said:
" General Beauregard, what do you
think of General Grant as SOLDIER
Wei, gentlemen replied the south
erner, this is no affair Of mine. I was.
as you are aware, on the other side. I

Grant was right there to receive our
swords. When we surrendered at

SkirnerSS adventure

1t was on Big Twin lake, in Villas

his vacation this year, alternating fish

haplr Mrs. Skinner with their little
Slaughter Cornelia and nurse, occupied,
TOR two seasons, the largest cottage at
Sargent's resort, and both the actor
and his wife are very fond of the Wis
consin lakes and woods. Mr.. Skinner
is good fisherman, a good oarsman
aud good swimmer. While at Big
venture, while out on one of the many
fishing trips he and Mrs. Skinner made.
The actor and his wife and her cousin,
carp Jennings, a Chicago lad who is
still in knickerbockers, rowed one hot
day to the north end of the lake. where
there is fine, clean beach that all who
have fished in big twin know. 1t is a
favorite resting place. and Mr. and
Mrs. Skinner planned to have their
lunch there. In the afternoon clouds
began to gather and Mr.. Skinner
thought it best to start for home, so
the boat was launched and he began to
row towards Sargent's. Before they
had gone a fourth of the distance the
sky became very threatening. Then
