IT is DOUBTFUL
II Local Applications Alone
Ever Cured a Case of
Catarrh.

Most remedies for the treatment of
catarrh are in the form of sprays. in
halers, powders. washes or salves. all
purely local applica tions and many of
them often give temporary relief, but
the reason none of them ever really cure
chronic catarrh is because catarrh Is
not a local disease and 1t cannot be
cured simply by treating the local
symptoms.
Moreover, the more serious forms of
catarrh, like catarrh Of the stomach
and catarrh of the bronchial tubes,
cannot be reached at all by local appll-
cations and the fact that neglected
catarrh Of the head very soon involves
the bronchial tubes, stomach and liver.
demonstrates that the disease Is
blood disorder, constitutional malady
and not at all local disease.
To really cure catarrh, the system
must be cleanseI from catarrhal poi
son by an internal remedy which acts
effectively upon the blood and liver.
The success of new catarrh remedy
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. is because
1t drives out Of the system, through
natural channels, the catarrhal poison
and the mucous lining of the nose,
throat ana trachea are freed from the
excessive mucus which collects and
causes the hawking, splitting ana gag
ging, because the. excessive secretion
lis not furnished from healthy blood.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain many
of the same valuable antiseptics used
In sprays and inhalers, but instead Of
being applied to the infiamed men,
branes OF the nose aud throat, they are
taken into the stomach and thus reach
the blood the real seat and cause of
the disease.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozenges. composed of
Red Gum, Hydrastan, Blood Root, ana
similar catarrh specifics, and so safe
to use that little children suffering
from colds take them with same bene-
ficial results as adult persons.
No trace of cocaine or opiates, so
common in catarrh medicines, can be
found in Stuart's Catarrh Tablets

depot, and wagged his stubby tail.
His tail was once Of normal length
but something severed the greater por-

His very homeliness as he sat on the
platform drew the attention Of the
passengers to him. Life on the rail.

attractive about the little fellow. 1t

al line that Rags" shines and the
yardmen say proudly that he could
make. ony other dog look like pony

test Of intelligence.
But little is known of the pedigree
of Rags" About year ago a dog
strayed into the yardmaster's office at
the Old Forge one evening. 1t was
his extremely homely appearance that
won for him warm place to sleep
that night. He displayed a remark

not turned away the next day. Since
then he has lived at the Old Forge.
