throat tcan be kept clear of mucous
and splitting. Catarrh is a nuisance
and source of annoyance, not only
to the one who has it, but everybody
else. The thick, yellow discharge
from the head produces feeling of
personal deflement, and the odor of
the breath is almost intolerable.
The catarrhal poison brings on
stomach troubles and affects the Kid
neys and Bladder. 1t attacks the
soft bones and tissues of the head
and throat, causing total or partial
deafness, the loss of smell, and Civ
ing to the voice a rasping, nasal
twang. No part of the body is secure
from its ravages. Catarrh makes
you sick all over, for it is a dis
ease of the blood, and circulates all
through the system, and for this
reason, sprays, washes, inhalers,
powders and salves have proven
failures.
The way to cure Catarrh thor
oughly and permanently is to cleanse
the blood of the unhealthy secretions
that keep the membranes of the BODY
inf1amed, and nothing does this SO
surely and promptly as S. S. S. AS

DISSATISFIED VETERANS
Regard Law Creating County Pension
Boards a Mistake.

A recent special from Jackson
says:
The leading Confederate veter-
ans of the state are awakening to
a realization that a serious mistake
was made by the legislature al
it's last session in giving to ex-
Confederate pension boards, com
posed of five members in each
county, the power to pass on all
the pension applications, and the
repeal of the measure will be
urged at the next legislative ses-
sion.
The veterans of Carroll county
will hold a meeting at Carrollton
on Jan. 81 for the purpose of DIS
cussing the present law and for.
mulating instructions to the men,
bers of the legislature from that
county as to the amendment or
revision needed. In all parts of
the state the veterans are thor
oughly dissatisfied with the sys.
tenn, and many of them express
disgust over the phenomenal in
crease in the pension roll it has
caused, being confident that hun
dreds are nov on the rolls and
drawing pensions who do not de
serve assistance.
Numberless applications were
Topped off by Pension .Commis-
sioner Cole last year, but this did
not prevent an enormous increase
for he could not make close per
sonal investigation of each case,
Quite a number of camps of Con
federate veterans have expressed
their disapproval of the law, ahd
it is unsatisfactory IN nearly
every respect.
