A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something New Under The Sun

Something New Under The Sum
All Doctors have tried to cure
CATARRH by the use of powders,
acid gases, inhalers and drugs in paste
form. Their powders dry up the
mucous membranes causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful
acids used in the inhalers have entirely
eaten away the same membranes that
their makers have aimed to cure,
while pIste and Ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and eX-
perienced practitioner who has for
many years made a close study and
speciality of the treatment of CA
TARRH, has at last perfected a treat
ment which when faithfully used, not
only relieves at once, but permanently
cures Catarrh, by removing the cause,
stol ping the discharges, and curing all
Inflammation. 1t is the only remedy
known to science that actually reaches
the afflicted parts. This wonderful
remedy is known as ''Snuffles the
Guaranteed Catarrh Cure and is sold
at the extremely low price of One Dol
lar, ,eachpackage containing internalan
external medicine sufficient for full
months treatment and everything
necessary for its perfect use.
"Snuffles the, only perfect Catarrh
Cure ever made and is now recognized
as the only safe and positive cure for
that annoying and disgusting disease.
1t cures all Inflammation quickly and
permanently and is also wonderfully
quick to relieve Hay Fever or Cold in
the Head.
Catarrh when neglected often leads
to 'Snutfles" will save
you if you use it at once. 1t is nc

ment which is positively guaranteed t.

used according to the directions which

st. R1Ie's Tower.

st. Rules tower. in the town of st.
Andrews. is an evidence of the link
which binds st. Andrew, whose feast
all good Scotchmen keep, to the coun-
try of whom he is the patron saint.
The legend runs that monk called
Regulus. or Rule. brought the bones OF
st. Andrew from Constantinople to
Scotland and buried them near the sea
coast, on the spot round which the
present town of st. Andrews after
ward grew. Whether the story is true
or not. there seems to be no other way
to explain the connection of this partic-
ular saint with Scotland. for he seems
to have passed the whole of his life UP
to the moment of his martyrdom in the
east. James IL. certainly associated
him with the country across the Tweed
for it was he who founded the Order
of st. Andrew in 1857. to be conferred
on the king and sixteen knights.-Lon

Persian prince on his way to meet

seven days he stopped to rest under

into a sound sleep. When he awakeE'

READ TT IN HIS NEWSPAPER.

George Schaub, well known Ger man citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is a constant reader of the Dayton Volks- zeitung. He knows that this paper aims to advertise only the best in it's columns, and when he saw Chamber iain's Pain Balm advertised therein for lame back, he did not hesitate in buying a bottle of it for his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered with the most terrible pains in her back and could get no relief. He says: "Af- ter using the Pain Balm for a few days my wife said to me, I feel as though born anew and before using the entire contents of the bottle the unbearable pains had entirely van- fshed and she could again take up her household duties.'' He is very thank full and hopes that all suffering like wise will hear of her wonderful re- covery. This valuable liniment is for sale by all druggists.
