NO ARGUMENT NEEDED.
Every Sufferer from Catarrh Knows
That SaIves. Lotions, Washes,
Sprays and Douches Do Not Cure.

Powders, lotions. salves, sprays and
inhalers cannot really cure Catarrh,
because this disease is a blood disease
and local applications. if they accom-
plish anything at all, simply give
transient relief.
The catarrhal poison is in the blood
and the mucous membrane of the nose,
throat and trachea tries to relieve the
system by secreting large quantities
of mucous, the discharge sometimes
closing up the nostrils, dropping into
the throat. causing deafness by clos
ing the Eustachian tubes. and after a
time causing catarrh of stomach or
serious throat and lung troubles.
A remedy to really cure catarrh
must be an internal remedy which Will
cleanse the blood from catarrhal poi
son and remove the fever and conges-
ton from the mucous membrane.
The best and most modern remedies
for this purpose are antiseptics scien-
tifcally known as Red Gum, Blood
Root and Hydrastin, and while each
of these have been successfully used
separately, yet it has been difficult to
get them all combined in one pal
atable, convenient and efficient form.
The manufacturers of the new ca
tarrh cure. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
have succeeded admirably in accom-
plishing this result. They are large,
pleasant-tasting lozenges, to be dis
solved in the month, thus reaching
every part of the mucous membrane
Of the throat and finally the stomach.
Unlike many catarrh remedies, Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets contain no CO.
caine, opiate or any injurious drug
whatever, and are equally beneficial
for little children and adults.

RELIEF NOT SUFFICIENT
To Mark Hnvemeyer's work of Art
ms Stntunry.

New York, Feb. 21.-The Board of
Classification of the United States gen.
eral appraisers to-day announced de-
cision upon a protest made by II. O.
Havemeyer against the action of the
collector of the port in assessing duty
of so per cent. ad valorem upon a terra
Gotta work of art imported by him.
One claim made by the importer was
that the merchandise should come in
as statuary, only 20 per cent. ad va
loren. or at 10 per cent, rather. under
the reciprocity agreement existing with
Italy. This claim is overruled by the
board on the ground that the relief Is
not sufficient TO come within the term
"statuary" as used In the law. The
claim was also made that the pro-
vision for articles OF an earthly sub
stance. not specially provided for.
might apply. IN which case the duty
would be but As per cent. ad valorem.
The board sustains this claim.

GERMANY AND THE DOCTRINE.
BerIiner Post Discusses the vene
zucIan Affair.

Berlin, Feb. 21.-The Post to-day, in
a semi-official article, expresses salts
faction at the fact that the British
cabinet ministers defended so openly
the cooperation between Great Britain
and Germany in the collection of
claims from Venezuela.
Referring to the Monroe doctrine, the
Post contends. in opposition to the
poet, Won Wildenbruch. who wrote an
article recently on Germany and the
Monroe Doctrine" that Germany has
no cause to actively support the doc
trine. and adds that the government is
not responsible for the personal utter
ances OF Minister Won Sternburg. The
Post further asserts that the newspa-
pers here ought TO think twice before
referring to Germany as showing rev
erence for the Monroe doctrine"

BACON AND THE
CANAL TREATY.
The Georgia Senator'S Telegram to
Judge Barrow.


Judge Barrow.
Savannah is interested in the Pana-
ma canal treaty because of the great
benefit 1t expects to derive from the
canal, this being the nearest port of
call on the Atlantic.
Hon. Pope Barrow, with many 9TH
ers, has taken a deep inter
est IN the canal project. A
few days ago he wrote Senator Bacon
in reference to the ratification of the
treaty by the Senate and yesterday re-
ceived the following telegram in reply:
Washington, Feb. 21.-Judge Pope
Barrow: The fact is fully understood
here that I am unreservedly in favor
of the ratification of the canal treaty
at the earliest practicable moment. The
public need have no apprehension as
the treaty will certainly be ratified by
the Senate. Senator Clay and myself
will both vote for it. A. o. Bacon.
