that science has been sble to cure in all Its
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halle Catarrh

medical fraternity Catarrh being a oonstitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional trea-
ment. Halls Cstarrh cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces Of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation OF the disease and giving the
patient strength BY building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing Its work,

tive powers that they offer One Hundred Dol
lars for any case It fails to cure. Send for

Always sit near the middle of the car
and become so absorbed in your book
that you will not move up or down when
any one gets in until the conductor is
forced to speak to you. This will attract
considerable attention to you and to
your book (Which no publisher will scri-
ously object toy, and it affords a pleasant
little diversion for the less literary occu-
pants of the car.
Never occupy less than two seats
This can be easily accomplished by
spreading out your skirts. When the
conductor, knowing the seating capacity
of his car. SAYS, Seats on the right
move up, please!" make it a purely per
sonal affair and haughtily ignore him.
If you can become so intent in your
reading that you can be carried several
blocks beyond where you want to go.
this will give you chance to show your
disposition and to reprimand the con-
ductor for not being possessed of clair
voyant or mind-rcading powers.
When at last you leave the car do il
slowly and with great dignity-cause a
block if you really can give the time
to it.
When the man who sat beside YOU
follows you repeating, Madam. madam"
don't turn or in any way let him know
that YOU hear him, for it might make it
less awkward for him. When YOU get
to the door and feel light touch on
your arm, snatch away and turn toward
him angrily. When he offers you the
book which you left on the seat beside
YOU take it from him grudgingly and say
"Thank you so low that he cannot
possibly hear it, or. better yet, don't say
it at all. That will make him glad that
he troubled himself about the book, and
he will undoubtedly think better of your
sex.
Let this occupy as much time as posi-
bic, and when the conductor asks you to
"please step lively" notice his number
so that you may report him at head
quarters for impertinence and founce off
the car in rage.
