or bronchial tubes, cannos be too
strongly emphasized.
The list OF catarrh cures is as long
as the moral law and forms in which
they are administered. numerous and
confusing, from sprays inhalers.

The tablet form is undoubtedly the
most effective, but with nearly all ad
vertised catarrh remedies It is almost
entitely matter of guess work as to
what you are taking into your system,
as the proproetors. while making all
sorts of claims as TO what their med
icines will do, always keep it a close
secret as to what they are.
The success and popularity of the
new catarrh cure, Stuarts Catsrrh
Tablets, is largely because it not oaly
cures catarrh. but because catarrh
sufferers who used these tablets
know what they are taking into their
sy stems. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets BE-
ing composed Of Red Gum, Blood Root
and similar valuable antiseptic in
gradients, and are pleasant to take
and being dissolved in the mouth they
take immediate effect as soon upon
the mucou, lining Of the throa'. nasal
passages and whole respiratory
tract.
The cures that Stuar's Catarrh Tab
let's have accomplished in old chronic
cares of catarrh are a little short of
remarkable, and the advantage of
know wing what you are putting ito
your stomach is Of paramount imDor'
tance when it is remembered that the
cocaine or morphine habit has been
frequently contract. d as the result Of
using secret catarrh remedies.
stuarS's Catarrh Tablets meet with
cordial approval from physicians be-

In the annual report to the secre-

son B. Ferguson makes the following
suggestions for legislation:
The herd law is, in its present con-
dition, fruitful Of endless trouble and
litigation. 1t should be amended.
The Limitation surrounding the ad-
mission Of foreign corporations is too
lax, and thore is not sufficient pro-
lection to our people from corpora
tions formed in other states.
The insurance laws should be re-
yised and modified There are many
provisions Of these insurance laws
which are ambiguous. some Of which
are harmful. and there are some omis-
sions which allow all foreign insur-
ance companies doing business within
the territory without proper guaranty
