AN IDEAL MEDICINE.
A New Discovery Which Cures All
Forms of Catarrh.

The tablet is the ideal form in which
10 administer medicine. but until re-
Gently no successful catarrh tablet had
ever been attempted. There is now.
however. an excellent and palatable
remedy for catarrh in tablet form,
known as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and
sold by druggists. composed of the most
recent discoveries in medicine for cure
Of catarrh and results from their use
have been highly gratifying.
The old-time treatment OF catarrh was
in the form of inhalers, washes, douches,
sprays. etc Later on. internal remedies
were used with greater success. but
being in liquid or powder form were
inconvenient to use and Ike all medi-
cines in LIQUID or powder form, lose their
medicinal properties When opened or ex-
posed to the air.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain highly
concentrated antiseptics, Hydrastin,
blood root. and Red gum which kill the
catarrh germs in the blood and mucous
membrane, and in this respect are strict
w scientific and modern, because all
authorities are now agreed that catarrh
Is 2. constitutional blood disease, and
local applicatio can have only q transi-
tory effect.
The use of inhalers. douches and
snrays is a. nuisance and inconvenience
and can in no wise compare fayorably
with the same antiseptics given in tab
let form internally. where they can reach
the stomach and blood and kill catarrh
germs right where they are produced
A prominent lawyer and public speak
Sers of Pittsburg says: have been trou-
HE'D. With catarrh Of the head and throat
for twelve wears IN this climate it
seems impossible to get rid of it. The
continual dropping Of mucous from the
nose into the throat caused irritation
and hoarseness. seriously interfering
with my public speaking. It took me
an hour or more Of coughing. gagging,
5expectorating and sneezins every morn
ing before I could settle down to work
and this condition gradually brought on
ga tarrh of stomach, causing loss of APP
netitc. moor digestion and foul BREATH
which annoyed me exceedingly My
physician advised me to try Stuart's
Catarrh5 Tablets and took them for
two months and was astonished to find
how quickly they cleared my head,
throat and stomach, and I have no hesi-
#tation IN recommending them They
are not only pleasant to take. but. they
seem to get at the very root OF the
trouble because since using tnem =
have had no trace of catarrh.
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
at so cents for full-sized package.
They can be carried in the pocket and
used any time and as often as desired.
since they contain no cocaine. mercury.

What Is Waiting General Lee.

Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, who distin-
guished himself in the Confederate
service, and is now on the regular
army retired list as a brigadier-gen-
era1, recently went on a visit to West
Virginia. While there he met an old
comrade in arms whose reception
was somewhat frigid.
"Well, what's the matter?" said
Lee.
ooh, nothing much," was the reply.
"There is something wrong" per-
sisted the General. "Out with it
What do you want?"
After being strenuously urged the
old comrade said: "Well, I want to
die at least half an hour before you
do. I want to be in the other world
when you arrive there, just to hear
what Gen. Jubal Early says when he
sees you in a blue uniform."-Wo-

you, and what people think of you"
And now look at the contrast.
To be truly grateful, every day
should be a day of thanksgiving, in
stead of murmuring and complain
ing.
"some murmur when their sky is
clear,
And wholly bright to view,
If one small speck of cloud appear
In their great heaven of blue;
And some with thankful love are
filed,
If but n streak of light,
One ray of Gods great mercy gid
The darkness of their night"
