IT'S THE WAY YOU USE 1T.
IT'S the Method Employed Which Makes
Success or Failure.

It's the Method Employed Which Makes
Success Failure.
One man with pen, ink and paper
can produce a landscape, another man
with same pen and ink may not be
able to write his own name legibly.
1t is all in knowing how.
1t is equally true in the use of
medicines. The same remedies we
have today have existed for thousands
I.of years, but if their existence was
known the knowledge of how to use
them was lacking.
They became valuable to the human
race only when experiment and
science showed the way to use them
to get results.
The grip is an old disease with a
new name; it is really catarrhal in
character and the usual symptoms
are those of acute catar1h, but the old
time catarrh powders, salves and
sprays do not cure it, neither does
the application of antiseptics through
an inhaler give anything more than
relief for short time.
The antiseptics are all right; they
will kill the germs of catarrh and grip
if they are applied rightly, but their
local application to the nose and
throat avail little because the germs
are in the blood and through the whole
system.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain
many of these same antiseptics that
are used in sprays and inhalers, but
instead of applying them to the in
| famed mem branes of the nose and
throat, they are taken into the stom-
ach and thus reach the blood the real
seat of the disease, and drive out the
infectious germs through the nat
ural channels of the bowels and kid
neys.
In other words, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets reach the cause of the mis-
chief instead of merely local symp-
toms.
The remarkable success of these
tablets in curing grip, catarrh and
throat and lung troubles is because
they drive the catarrhal poison from
the system, and the nose and throat
| become clear of the excessive secre =
tious of mucus, which causes the
hawking, splitting and gagging be-
cause the secretion is not supplied
from healthy blood.
Two years ago Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets were unknown, but today
they have become so popular through
positive merit that druggists every
where in the United States, Canada
and Great Britain now sell them.

There was rumor at the military

Edison and Tesla, the electricians,
are both much averse to music n
each experiences u feeling OF positive
discomfort when within the reach OF
melodious sounds. II is recalled that
other men Of acknowledged genius have
been similarly afflicted. For instance,
Byron had no ear for music, and
neither vocal nor instrumental afforded
him the slightest pleasure. Edmund
Burke, whose oratory was music TO his
audiences, hated music. Charles James
Fox. another great orator.: William
Pit. "a third; Robert Peel. a fourth-all
OF these ran away from the sound or
music.
