WILL INTEREST EVERYBODY
Or at Least Everyone Who Suffers From
Catarrh.

Catarrh.
Catarrh in IFS various forms is n
national disease. and the fact that
nearly everybody suffers from it
more or less leads many 10 neglect its
proper treatment.
Nasal catarrh is Il common cause of
headaches, destroys sense of smell.
and if neglected reaches the throat.
causing impairment and sometimes
total loss of voice. Bronchial catarrh
leads easily to consumption. Catarrl
of stomach and liver are very serious
and obstinate troubles, while it is
now generally admitted that catarrh
is the most common of all causes of
deafness.
All the more serious forms of ca
tarrh begin with nasal catarrh. the
local symptoms being a profuse dis
charge, stoppage Of nostrils irrisa-
tion and frequent clearing of the
throat, sneezing, coughing and gag
ging.
The old style of treatment with
douches, inhalers. sprays. salyes, etc.
simply gives temporary relief, and ev-
eryone who has used any of them
knows how useless they are and their
Inconvenience is such that very few
have the time or patience to CON
tinue their use.
\ radical cure of catarrh can only
be obtained from = treatment which
removes the catarrhal taint from the
blood, because no one will now dis
pute that catarrh is a constitutional
or blood disease, and local applica-
tions can have no effect except to
temporarily relieve local symptoms.
new remedy which has been re-
markably successful in curing ca
tarrh is a pleasant tasting tablet
which is taken internally and acts
upon the blood and mucous mem
branes.
1t is composed of antiseptic rem
edies like red gum, blood root and
similar cleansing specifics which
eliminate the catarrhal poison from
the system.
The tablets being pleasant to the
taste are dissolved in the mouth and
thus reach the throat, trachae and
finally the stomach and entire ali
mentary canal. They are sold by
druggists everywhere under the name
of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
If desired, when there is much
stoppage of the nose, the tablet may
be dissolved in warm water and used
as n douche i'm addition to internal
use, but douche is not at all neces-
sary. y few dissolved in the mouth
daily will be sufficient. DIR. Ainslee
says: The regular daily use of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets taken inter
nally Will cure the whole catarrhal
trouble without resorting to the in
convenience of a douche or an I'M
haler."
They seem to give healthy tone
TO the whole mucous membrane and
it is really remarkable how soon they
will clear the head and throat of the
unnatural and poisonous catarrhal
secretion.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is un-
doubtedly the safest, most palatabIe
and certainly the most efficient and
convenient remedy for any form of
catarrh.

ENGAGED
Will Manage Rock Island Base
ball Team Another
Seas on.
Is ALREADY SIGNING PLAYERS
Given Absolute Control of Men
Big Leagues Getting
Together.

Frank Donnelly is to manage RocI:
Islands baseball team in the Threc-I
league next season. He was engaged
-at meeting held with the directors
of the local association this morn
ing, having come from his home in
Springfield for conference.
Mr.. Donnelly, who so ably managed
the Rock Island team the past sea
son. will be given absolute charge of
the players the coming year, the di
Frectors having decided that there
shall be no interference on their part
either in the signing or discharginS
of players.
The manager will be expected 10
assemble a team within the $500 limit
and furnish 81 satisfactory article of
ball.
Mr.. Donnelly feels confident that,
under his new contract he can do hy
the city even better than was the
case last season. when he was seri-
ously handicapped by conditions over
which he had no control.
"Rocll Island has treated me fair
ly. / like the city and the patrons of
the game" said Mr.. Donnelly. ''and
will exercise my best baseball iudS-
ment in picking a team that l will
do my utmost To land up towards the
top of the percentage. l will give
them the best l have got"
MIR. Donnelly stated he had several
men on the string in addition To those
of last years team reserved by the
local association. He has signed
Grey, a heavy-hitting first baseman,
who played with Joplin, Mo-. in the Mis-
souri, alley league, the past season.
1t is not improbable Peachie Graham
will wear Rock Island uniform
again next season.
Looks Like Peace
President NJ. III. Sexton, of the
Three-I and Western leagues. yester-
day afternoon received letter from
President Powers, of the National
Association of Minor Leagues con
tanning news that is giving him con
siderable satisfaction. The letter
states that both the National and the
American leagues have consented to
participate in the general conference
to be held under the auspices of the
National association at the Victoria
liotSi an WV Apih Wy cSb- 80
President Sexton thinks that it nov
looks as though every professional
baseball organization in the countr.
will be represented at the meeting
an:i he has every reason to hope that
the peace that has been so earnestly
desired i'm the baseball world for the
past two seasons is now in sight. The
National and American leagues have
steadily refused to send delegates t.
the conference, and it is only through
the united efforts of the officials of
the minor leagues that they have fl
nally consented to do so.
