return of cold weather, ali the disa-
greeable symptoms of Catarrh appear:
binding headaches, dizziness, a stuffy feel
ing about the nose that makes breathing
difficult, chest pains, and, as the disease
progresses, discharge of nauseating mat
ter from the throat and nose that keeps one
continually hawking and splitting.
Catarrh is most disgusting disease, the
foul mucous secretions that are constantly
dropping back into the stomach, containi-
nate and poison the blood and is distributed
throughout the body. and it then becomes
q deep-seated, systemic, persistent disease
that must be treated through the blood, for
it is beyond the reach of sprays, washes,
powders or external treatment Of any kind.

Catarrhal matter and purges the blood

checking the further progress of this seri-

1T IS GOING WELL.
Exposition Plans Are Grad rally
Being Matured.

Arrangements have been made by
Arthur Kane, commissioners of atnuse-
ments of the exposition for the Kansas
State university orchestra to play at
the exposition on the afternoon and ev-
ening of January q. That day will be
especially designated Kansas Univer-
sity day. Thursday, January 30. will be
Washburn day at the exposition Other
special days" will be: Editors day;
Grocers' day; Reciprocity day; Frater-
nifty day; Woman's day; and Kansas
day. The latter in honor of the ami
versary of Kansas, January 29.
The exposition is not in any sense a
money making affair for its promoters,
but is gotten up solely through public
spirit and enterprise, for the purpose
of promoting the interests of Kansas,
and in an effort to assist in making
Kansas a great manufacturing state.
With the vast coal beds, the natural
gas and petroleum that underiie her
surface, and with the mineral deposits
that enrich her soil, her possibilities
along the lines of manufacturing are
so great as to be almost Incompetent
sible.
A pretty exhibit will be that of the H.
d. Lee Mercantile company of Salina,
which has 20 feet of booth frontage.
This booth will be deliberately fitted
up to display the goods prepared and
sold by the wholesale company. The
Lee company puts up a brand OF goods
quite well known in the territory coy,
cred by the company, and the method
of their manufacture will be demon
strated.
The we'll known Waconda water will
be distributed free at the exposition. 1T
comes from Waconda Springs near Be
lott and 1.-The drinks" will be at the ex-
pense of the concern that handles the
product.
Crane. the Topeka publisher, will
make a display of the publications of
his house together with samples of
commercial work turned out at his
plant.
The Curry Windmill company of To-
peka, will make exhibits of both wind
and feed mills.
