AN IDEAL Medicine
"a New Discovery Which Cures All Forms
Of Catarrh.

The tablet is the ideal form in which
TO administer medicine. but until recently
sno successful catarrh tablet had ever been
Attempted. There Is now, however, an
sexcellent and palatable remedy for ca
ttarrh in tablet form. known as Stuarts
Ca tarrh Tablets and sold by druggists,
composed Of the most recent discoveries
t1n medicine for cure Of catarrh and re-
suits from their 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 be-
ltng In liquid or powder form, were incon-
venient to use, and, like all medicines in
liquid or powder form, lose their medicinal
properties when opened or exposed to the
air. a
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 strictly scientific
and modern. because all authorities are
now agreed that atarrh is a constitu-
'tional blood disease, and local applications
can have only a transitory effect.
The use Of 1nhalers douches and sprays
is a nuisance and Inconvenience and can
in no wise compare favorably with the
SINE antiseptics given In tablet form in
ternally. where they can reach the stom-
ach and blood and kill catarrh germs right
where they produced.
A prominent lawyer and public speaker
OF Pittsburg says I have been troubled
with catarrh Of the head and throat for
twelve years. In this climate 1t seems
impossible to get rid Of 1t. The continual
dropping Of mucus from the nose into the
throat caused irritation and hoarseness
seriously interfering with my public
speaking. 1t took me an hour or more
Of coughing, gagging, expectorating and
sneeZing every morning before could
settle down to work, and this condition
gradually brought on catarrh of stomach,
causing loss Of appetite. poor digestion
? and a foul breath, which annoyed me ex-
ceedingly. My physician advised me to
try Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and took
them for two months and was astonished
to find how quickly they cleared my head,
throat and stomach. and have no hest
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 them I have had no
trace of catarrh. .''N --s.a,
Druggists sell Stuarts Catarrh1 Tablets

painted a tigers skin admirably, but
what they put inside the skin was d
fabulous monster. They had never seen
a. tiger.
But now that western civilization has
brought the circus in its train, they are
able, having seen, to place that already
perfect skin upon an irreproachable
mass of ferocious, snarling energy, true
to life in every detail AS for Matsu-
moto's school of wood carvers the ele-
ment of idealism wanting in their work
has now been supplied by experts of
the Art academy, who sent to the Tokf 10
exhibition sculptures of the very high
est merit, quite faultless anatomically
and showing grace, tenderness and soft
ness such as never previously disting-
uiShed Japanese carvings in wood.
Since the seventh century the Elyptic
artist in Japan has been able to depict
crepitude, alone or in combination, and
since the sixteenth his chisel has pro-
duced. with unsurpassed fidelity, birds,
flowers, insects, fishes and other natural
objects. But only now has he attempt
ed to show the nomal human figure in
it's gentle, pathetic, passionate and
tranquil aspects. In this field, he seems
likely to achieve what has long been
hoped from him-the union of modern
technical methods with old and purely
Japanese artistic instincts
In short, with TT the present is a
time of renaissance for this nation. and
we have to congra tulate ourselves that
we, too, may benefit from the increased
attention recent events must focus
upon this interesting development. AS
far as decoration is concerned, an i'm

JAPAN'S ART MASTERS.
TFro1n the I.ondou House.1

IRON the London Housed
Japanese artists, having little or no
knowledge of anatomy. could not draw
the human figure with anything APP
preaching classic accuracy; but the his
school completely upsets this theory
This man. in the rank of an ordinary
mechanic, suddenly began to sculpture
wooden figures as faultiessly anatom-
ically as the works of Greek masters.
Without special education of any kind,
without even an opportunity to study
models In studio, not only did Matsu-
motto prove the unerring accuracy OF
his observation. but his pupils and sue
cessors also evinced the same capacity.
Their fault was over-rea11Sm. their
works were entirely objective. Still,
they showed that even the commonest
class of artists In Japan can accurate
1y model the surface of the human
body without knowing anything about
the underlying bones or muscles. 1t
may be noted en- PEASANT that proof OF
a similar faculty has been given by
modern japanese painters. The best
