A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
"something New Under The Sun,

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 paste 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
IARRH, has at last perfected treat
ment which when faithfully used, not
only relieves at once, but permanently
cures Catarrh, by removing the cause,
stopping 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 "Snuffies the
Guaranteed Catarrh Cure and is sole

FOOLING THE EXPERTS.
Experience of a Man Who Bought q
Diamond Brooch.

"I am convinced that few people
know anything about diamonds, no
matter how much they may pose as
experts" said a young business man
the other day. "a recent experience
of mine has forced me to this cOnclu-
sion. l bought for my wife brooch
containing a cluster of diamonds and
took occasion to show it to several of
my friends at the club. They exam
ined it very closely, looked wise and
then started to show me where my
judgment had been at fault. Every
man in the crowd seemed to be dia
mOnd expert. BY the time they had
got through l really felt as though
had been bunkoed and was considera-
bly, depressed.
'NeXt day | got to thinking the mat
ter all over and came to the conclusion
that my friends had been talking of
something they knew nothing about.
At any rate, l determined to make a
test. l went to one of those imitation
diamond stores and for 80 cents bought
brooch, which l placed in the box
that had formerly contained the real
one.
"Again | went to the club and an
nOunced to my critical friends that l
had taken their collective advice and
by paying an extra $50 had exchanged
the brooch in which they had picked 50
many flaws. They all agreed that the
fifty cent bauble which l showed them
was great Improvement over the 9th
er, and when l told them of the trick
1 had played on them they wouldn't
believe me. To man they cOntended
that they couldn't be fooled on dia-
mOnds.

purchase" "-Philadelp Record.

Nothing More to Be Said.

"My wife always lets me have the
last word" remarked the meek look

tones which implied a doubt of the
others veracity.

Yes. my dear, you are quite right
she stops talking immediately."-New
