NOTHING EQUALS IT
For the Cure of Cntnrrh.

A physician now retired from practice,
but who still keeps abreast OF the times,
in speaking of the advance made In medi-
cine in the last ten years, says: One Of
the most obstinate and battling diseases
is the very common trouble. catarrh.
Nasal catarrh is only one of its many
forms. catarrh of the throat catarrn or
the stomach bowels liver, and bladder
are very common. but the sufferer usually
thinks it is something else than catarrh
and is treated for the wrong disease.
"The best and most successful treatment
for any form of catarrh is now admitted
to be by internal remedies through the
stomach and the safest and probably the
most efficient is in the tablet form. SOLD
by druggists as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Il have seen many remarkable cures OF
catarrh resulting from regular daily use
of these tablets which seem to act on the
blood and liver, driving the catarrhal
poison out of the system through the "a
tural channels.
81 once had occasion to analyze these
tablets and found them to contain no CO.
caine nor opiates but simply combina-
ton of harmless an 'eptics like Euca-
lyptol. Guaiacol, blood root. etc
at any rate 1 ha, known of severe
catarrhal headaches which were cured by
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. and catarrhal
deafness, hay fever asthma and catarrh
of the throat and stomach speedily show
great benefit after a few days use of the
remedy. and when it is remembered how
much more convenient tablet is than in
halers douches, salves and powders it is
not surprising that this new preparation
should so rapidly supplant all other rem
edies for catarrh.

Two sessions of the National Legislative
Conference League were held yesterday

ganized in Il number of States, there were

is the first annual session OF the league
The principles which caused the lorna ION
OF the league were enunciated forcib'y in
a resolution unanimously adopted which
read as follows:

FasOring Mrs. ROebIinG - Spirited
Discussions Mt the Sessions.

The biennial election of national Off
Revolution is set for today at the Grand
Opera House, where the Tenth Continen-
tai Congress is in session. Nomina dons
will be made and balloting probably begun
this afternoon for the selection of a pres
ident general and minor officials.
The political situation which started
months before the opening of the con-
gress remains unchanged. Three candi-
dates are conceded to hold practically all
the votes with the exception of a few
which will be cast as compliments TO va
rious persons. OF the trio of candidates.
Mrs Fairbanks, OF Indiana. and Mrs. Dom
aid Mclean are the two prominent and
Mrs. Washington A. Roebling. the third
aspirant for the position, has enough sup
port to be the balance of power between
the two. 1t was positively stated yes err
day that Mrs. ROebling will not withdraw.
While the contest is very close, never
theless Mrs. Fairbanks appears to have
a shade the best of the situation This ap-
pearance may be the result of the express
ed confidence of her friends. who assert
that she is practically assured of 400
votes, which would, doubtless, elect her
to the position. 1t cannot be denied, on
the other hand. however. that Mrs. Nc
Lean has been gaining strength. Her sup
porters do not make any statement AS TO
the number of votes pledged. but assert
that the ballOting today will find their
favorite with majority. The friends of
Mrs. Roebling do not claim large num-
Der of votes for her, but seem to think
that deadlock may result between the
two other leaders, and that Mrs. Roebling
Will be turned to by many in that emer-
gency. While no other candidates for ths
position have been announced because it
was thought that the position would go to
either Mrs Fairbanks or Mrs. Mclean. it
is understood that there are one or two
prominent members of the society who
could be induced to enter the field should
a deadlock ensue.

There is not much of fight on for the
minor Offices. although lively brushes may
be looked for between State delegations
which support rival candidates for the
same position. Eleven vice presidents
general are TO be elected Among those
who will probably be nominated for these
offices are: Mrs. Matthew Scott and Mrs.
John P. Jewett both of Illinois: Mrs. Ad-
olson G. Foster. of Washington, and Mrs
X. X. Henry, of the District of Columbia.
Miss Susie R. Hetzel of Virginia is a
candidate for historian general and Mrs.
E. W. Howard, of Virginia. for recording
secretary.
Spirited debate made its appearance for
the first time at yesterdays sessions of
the congress. The report of the Com
mittee on Continental Hall aroused gen.
eral and animated discussion, in which
Mrs. Donald Mclean took a prominent
part. There was no session in the after
noon on account of the reception rendered
the d. A. r. by the President. which was
attended by about 1,500 delegates and Off
GERS.
Last nights session was mainly devoted
to the reading and discussion of commit
tee reports and the consideration of q re-
quest from General Vincent. President of
the Sons of the American Revolution. to
assist in the building up OF that society in
a number of States. The communication
was received with merriment and laugh
ter and after a long discussion it was
finally resolved 10 grant the request.
After calling the evening session to or
