NO STRIKE ON SOUTHERN LINE
Union Pacific strikers VIII CONNIE
Their Efforts to the One
Road.

Strike leaders in Omaha said yesterda!
morning that they will not attempt to pull
out the men on the Southern Pacific rail-
way. Great interest has been felt in tn
matter all along, as it was thought tn
strikers would certainly resort to that
move in case President Burt did not como
to a settlement.
THE strikers feel that they can accom-
plish their ends without insisting on the
strike being carried to other Hartman
lines of railroad, and will proceed with the
plans already outlined" said one of the
leaders.

NO TRACE OF BANK ROBBERS
Police Are Wondering what Became
of Rig stolen from Farmer


No further clue to the Waterloo bank
robbers has been reported to Chief Dona-
hue. That official stated yesterday that
one OF the strange features in connection
with the robbery was the inability of the
officers TO secure any trace of the missing
team stolen from the Menkind farm. The
chief is Of the opinion that the robbers
have deserted the rig and It has been taken
into the care of some farmer, who has not
reported his hnd. The chief also believes
that the robbers will not make any attempt
at disposing of the team through any. sale.
but will either turn it loose in the highway
or place II under shelter.

THEORIES ABOUT CATARRH.
Peculiar Ideas Regarding a Common
Disease.


Mark Twain's cure for a cold in the head
was simple, but he claims very effective in
his own case; his plan was to eat nothing
whatever for twenty four hours or pre-
sumably until the trouble had disappeared.
Although not able to speak from per-
sonal experience as to the effectiveness Of
this treatment. it certainly has the merit
of extreme economy. but 1t occurs 70 us
that the application Of 1t to q case OF nasal
catarrh might be attended with difficulties.
Catarrh, as everyone knows, is a. chronic
cold in. the head and Mr.. Twain's treat
rment. II it should become a fad, would
make Of us. nation OF %fasters: an army.
emulating the example Of the immortal
Tanner who achieved world wide fame by
fasting forty days.
Catarrh is certainly becoming a national
disease and there is little doubt but that
errors IN diet, particularly over eating is a
very common cause.
Most people however are more interested
in the cure OF the trouble than in the cause.
and modern medical science has produced
more effective and less heroic remedies
than Mr.. Twain's.
Hydrastln is a new remedy, very effective
in some forms OF Catarrh. Red Gum is an
other which on account Of Its antiseptic
properties Is very valuable, while many
severe cases Of Chronic Catarrh have been
entirely cured by the sanguinaria or ex-
tract OF Blood root alone.
Within a year an enterprising chemist
has combined all Of these remedies in tab
| let form, palatable and convenient and the
| superiority OF this tablets over other ca
| tarrh remedies is so apparent that all
druggists now carry them in stock to sup
ply the popular demand.
They are called stuart's Catarrh Tablets
and it is doubtful II any medicine has
achieved a national popularity in so short
a time as this.
p stuart's Catarrh Tablets are used by
thousands OF travelling men because thoy
can be carried in the pocket and used any
time and IN any quantity being free from
Cocaine, opiate or any poisonous drug.
They clear the head and throat from thu
disgusting secretions OF catarrh, very Otter
in a few hours time.
For nasal Catarrh they are far superio,
to any wash, lotion or ointment the use o
which is often as in~convenient and annoy
ing as the disease itself
For coughs, colds, bronchial catarrh anC
catarrh OF stomach these tablets give i'm
mediate rehef and a permanent cure wher,
lotions, douches and inhAlers make no i'm
preston whatever.
This preparation is . boom Ito catarrl
sufferers and any druggist will tell yol
that stuart's CatarTh Tablets u q remed!
that has come to stay.
