American Invasion Of England.

London. JAN 5.-The Daily Express,
which continues to publish instances of
English and other European contracts
for iron work and the like going to the
United States, announces today the
probability that an American syndicate
will provide a summer steamer service
on the Thames. This American inva-

The above map has been carefully
compiled from United States documents
by The Peruna Medicine Company, of
Columbus Ohio. The figures were taken
from the mortal statistics published by
the government and entirely agree with
the archives kept at The Hartman SAM
tarium.
The map is made in four shades The
lightest shade shows the states which
have the lowest per cent q deaths due
to catarrhal diseases. In these states
very close to ~ per cent of all deaths in
1890 were due to catarrhal diseases That
is to say, over four out of every ten
deaths were from catarrhal affections.
In the states of next darker shade he
per cent varies from AZ to 45. In e
next darker shade, IS to 4S per cent of
the whole number of deaths resulted
from catarrhal diseases. In the darkest
shade we have indicated the states in
which over so per cent, or one-half or
more, Of all the deaths were directly
traceabie to catarrh as the cause.
This Is an appalling state of affairs.
This nation has got to confront the
fact that catarrE has become a
national curse. Catarrhal diseases
threaten the life of our people. Over
one-haif of the people suffer from
some form or degree of catarrl1.
Fully thirty five million people are
personally interested In the discovery
of radical catarrn cure.
