CATARlH

Catarrh has become such common
disease that person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. 1t is, in fact, complicated and
very dangerous disease; if not at FIRST, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation is carried to all
parts of the system.
Salves, washes and sprays are unsatis
factory and disappointing, because they do
not reach the seat of the trouble. S. S. S.
does. It cleanses the blood of the poison
and eliminates from the system all catar-
rhal secretions, and thus cures thoroughly
and permanently the worst cases.

ORDAINED PRIEST
IN The PHILIPPINES

News has been received at Gonzaga
college that the first American priest
ordained in the Philippines is Rev.
William II. Stanton, s. j., of Missouri,
a member of the Jesuit order.
At his ordination there was a SOL
emn function in the Church of st.
Ignatius at Manila. In the audience
were many distinguished officers and
men from the United States.
In a recent letter Father Stanton
gives much information concerning
the Jesuit colleges in Manila. AT
one of them, the Ateneo. there are
$50 boarders. A large number were
refused admission on account of the
lock of room. Up to the month of
October the Jesuits had 1903 stu
dents. including day scholars, at this
one school.
Father Stanton says that the Jesu-
its could have 1000 students If they
had accommodation in their Manila
colleges.

Not only is the order noble in
composition, but no knight may be
admitted unless he can show GER
tificates of ancestry to the effect
that at least four generations of his

There is no reward for the serv-
