WILL INTEREST EVERYBODY
Or At Least Everyone Who Suffers
From Catarrh.

Catarrh in it's various forms is M
tionaI disease. and the fact that nearly
every body suffers from it more, or less
leads many to neglect its proper treat
ment.
Nasal catarrh is a common cause of
headaches, destroys sense of smell and
if neglected reaches the throat. caus-
ing impairment and sometimes total
loss of voice. Bronchial catarrh leads
easily to- consumption. Catarrh of stom-
ach and liver are very serious and OBJ
stinate troubles while it is now gener-
ally admitted that catarrh is the most
common of all causes of deafness.
All of the more serious forms of ca
tarrh begin with nasal catarrh the local
symptoms, being profuse discharge.
stoppage of nostrils, irritation and fire.
quent clearing of the throat. sneezlng,
coughing and gagging.
The old style of treatment with
douches, inhalers, sprays, salyes, ETC.,
simply give temporary relief and every
one who has used any of them knows
how useless they are and their incon-
venience is such that very few have the
time or patience to continue their use.
| A radical cure of catarrh can only be
obtained from treatment which re-
moves the ca tarrhal faint from the blood
/ because no one will now dispute that
catarrh is a constitutional or blood dis
ease and local applications can have
no effect except to temporarily relieve
/ local symptoms.
A new remedy which has been re-
markedly successful in curing eatarrh
is a pleasant tasting tablet which is
taken internally and acts upon the
4 blood and mucous membranes.
1t is composed of antise0tic remedies
like Ped Gum. Blood root and similar
cleansing specifics which eliminate the
catarrhal poison from the system
The tablets being pleasant to the
taste are dissolved in the mouth and
thus reach the throat, trachea and final
! " the stomach and entire alimentary
canal They are sold by druggists ev-
erywhere under the name of Stuart's
CatarFh Tablets
If desired. when there is much stop

solved in warm water and used as a
douche in addition to internal use, but

daily use of Stdart's Catarrh Tablets
taken internally will cure the whole ca
tarrhal trouble without resorting to the

They seem to give a healthy tone to
the whole mucous membrane. and it is
really ren1a rlxa Bile how soon they will

Government Appeals the" katy'
Land Grant Case.
Will go to the Supreme Court
of the United States.
1T is Is YEARS OLD.
Originally Involved $500 In
nOcent Purchasers Of Land.
Ownership of Millions of Kan
sas Acres in Question.

The United States government has APP
pe..led to the United States supreme
court from the decision of the United
States district court inNthe famous land
Datent case against the Missouri, Kan
sas & Texas Railway company. Notice
Of the appeal was filed with Clerk OF
Court George S. Sharritt at Topeka
yesterday.
Ever since 1886 this lawsuit has been
dragging through the United States
courts in Kansas. 1t is therefore about
sixteen years Of age. and has been I'M
der the charge Of various sets OF OPP
posing attorneys.
When originally filed. the lawsuit pro-
duced a great sensation, and caused
CONSERVATION among several thousand
settlers on land purchased many years
before from the NJ K. & T. railway.
The NJ. X & T. was a land grant road,
and the government claimed that by
fraud and misrepresentation it had Sc
cured from the government a great deal
of land to which it was not entitled un-
der the grants. Acting upon this theory,
the government sued about $500 innO-
cent purchasers of land. in addition to
the railway itself. 1t endeavOred in the
courts to re-establish its title to the
land and drive off all those settlers
then holding the property
1t did not take the courts long, how
ever, to decide the case so far as the
innocent purchasers were concerned.
The courts nelQ tndI all THESE SUITS
should be dismissed. From time to
time the case has come up on various
points, until finally the issues were
drawn in regard to two quarter sections
of land in Allen county. These two
quarter sections the government claim
ed to own because the railroad has
misrepresented to the government
agents it's route and had thereby Sc
cured title. When the case was tried,
the decision was in favor of the railway
company.
The government will take the case to
the supreme court of the United States
1t is generally supposed that in case the
government wins in the supreme court,
it will seek to recover from the railway
company the value of all the land which
the company sold to settlers. The court
will not entertain a proposition to eject
the thousands of innocent purchasers,
but it might be willing to compel the
company, in case fraud is proved, to
disgorge what it received and turn it
over to the government treasury.
The case involves millions of acres of
land all along the right of way of the
Katy railway.

All intentions of the Milwaukee & St

of bringing competitive interests to an
