Then Mr.. Warner smiled one of his
broad and inclusive smiles.
Il have not heretofore paid any at
tention to these political lies which have
been printed about me, but this First

say that 1 have not seen Mr. Skinner
and have not talked to him, for upwards
of three months. Yet 1 am said to be
looking after his campaign.
''Since l have been. dumped into the

A new preparation for the cure of ca
tarrh has attracted much attention in the
past few months and has met with great
favor from the medical profession not on
the cure of catarrh, but also because it is
not a secret patent medicine; anyone
using it knows just what he is taking into
his system

drastin for same purpose to clear the mu-
Gus from the head and throat, and red
gum of eucalyptus tree to destroy catar-
rhai germs in the blood.
All of these antiSeptic remedies are COM
bined in the form of q pleasant ia sting
tablet or lozenge, and are sold by drug
giSts under the name of StuartS Catarrh
Tablets, and many recent tests in chronic
catarrh cases have established it's merit
beyond question.
DR.. Sebring states that he has discarded
inhalerS, sprays and washes and depends
entirely upon Stuart,s Catarrh Tablets in

CHECKED BY STORM.
But the Business Outlook Con-
tinueS to Be Encouraging.

New York, Feb 22--F- G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
along the Atlantic coast business
was temporarily checked by the storm,
and some interior points also suffered
from unfavorable weather, but con-
sumptfxe demand gives no evidence of
abatement. Prices of perishable goods
advanced sharply. and the whole range
of staple commodities tended upward.
Jobbing trade in spring lines of wear
ing apparel is of ample proportions,
and all heavy hardware and products
of iron feel the pressure in that IN
dustry. Prospects are most encourage
ing as. to the labor situation. Railway
earnings thus far reported for Feb
ruary show a decrease of but SO per
cent. from last years figures, which Is
fully explained by weather conditions
while compared with 1900 there Is an
increase of SO per cent Bank ex-
changes for the week at the leading
cities outside New York show a gam
of 155 per cent. over last year, while the
loss at New York is but SIS per cent
from the total in 1901, which is more
than accounted for by a decreased ac-
tivity in the stock market.
while by no means inflated beyond
the point warranted by urgent pur-
chasers. prices of pig iron have made
decided advances, despite the opposition
of leading interests More imports are
advancing, now that there is less pros
pect of American competition because
of the unprecedented home demand
Railway supplies and structural mate
rial are still the most eagerly sought
of finished steel products. Record
breaking building permits indicate the
business that will be done by structural
mills.
THE presence of numerous buyers in
the Boston footwear market has not yet
produced the desired volume of bust
ness. There seems to be almost dead
lock owing to the indisposition of man
ufacturers to make desired concessions
and the unwillingness Of purchasers to
offer full list prices. The hide market
is weak and dull, with the quality of
Chicago receipts deteriorating. Follow

Exporters are bidding for China, al
though holders now refuge to accept
business at the terms they offered early
in the month. Wooden and worsted
fabrics for fall have received less atten-
ton, but sales are still fully up to the

MERIT
Of a New Catarrh Cure.

Physicians are slow to take up new and
untried remedies until their value has
been eSta blished by actual experiment and
thew are naturally skeptical of the many
new preparations constantly appearing
and for which extravagant claims are
made.
The most liberal and enlightened physi-
clans are always ready, however, to make
a fair trial of any new specific and get at
it's true medical value.
