ONLY PARTLY TRUE
Popular Ideas Regarding Catarrh.

popular ioSSS h6SdTul1g NdldETIs
1t is the common belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply
chronic cold in the head. This is true as
far as it goes, but as a matter of fact
catarrh is by no means confined to the
nasal pSssa ges. but extends wherever
the mucous membrane extends. which
means nearly every part of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside skin
of the body and is nearly as extensive
as the outside skin. ana any Inflammation
of this membrane causing an extra secre-
ton OF fluid is really catarrh.
Catarrh. is. therefore an old enemy
disguised by many confusing names. for
instance; Rhinitis is nasal catarrh; laryn-
gifts and pharyngitis throat cstarrh; gas
tritis. stomach catarrh; crystitis and
nephritis. catarrh of the bladder and kid
neys
Therefore, although the location of the
trouble gives it various names. in reality
the sum total is CatarTh and nothing else.
Do not make the mistake OF thinking
You have no catarrh because the h sad and
nos appear to be clear. If there is q
cough tickling in the throat and hoarse-
ness you have throat catSrrh. if there is
no appetite, but nausea, sagging and dis
gust for food especially In the morning.
you have catarrh Of the stomach.
The srrest treatment Tor every form
OF cajarrh is an internal remedy which
acts especially on the blood and mucous
membranes; such a remedy is the new
preparation sold everywhere by drug
gists under the name Of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets a medicine in pleasant tablet
form and containing all the best and
latest specifics for catsrrh
StUarts Catarrh Tablets contain IN
highly concentrated form. bloodroot. red
gum OF the eucalyptus tree. and many
other equally valuable curative elements,
and no one who suffers from any form
Of catarrh and has seen the inefiiciency
OF douches. sprays ard powders VIII ever
go back u them after once trying SO
pleasant a preparation as Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets and one which gives so
much relief in 50 short a time
AL druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets at 30 cents for full sized package and
the regular. daily use of them will
enectually cure this troublesome and dan
kerous disease

FAIR WEATHER NEEDED

New Orleans, March 25.-At 9 O'Clock
tonight the river here was stationary. al
s01 with no change anywhere, as far as
known, on the lower Mississippi. The
break near Howells on Bayou Fourche
has relieved the tension against those
levees and no other crevasses are likely
there.
A report from Baton Rouge says Cover
nor Heard and party returned from All
ington levee this evening. The mud box
has been completed and pianked through
out and willow revetment, well sacked,
have been laid over its length.
The situation there is entirely salts
factory.
Memphis. Tenn, March 25.-The river
tonight is falling rapidly, the guage
showing 4s.9 a fail of two-tenths since 6
O'Clock this morning. The situation is
rapidly assuming normal proportions. and
ali anxiety is practically over. Some I'M
easiness is still felt for the st. Francis
levees in Arkansas. to the north of this
city but all news from that section is of
q Measuring character.
No trains have Yet succeeded in getting
over the tracks a few miles west of
Bridge junction. 1t is now thought pos
sible that Memphis may remain cut off
from the west for another day.
Vicksburg, Miss, March 3.-AnOther
day Of fair weather. combined with a
diminished rate of rise in the river, has
raised high hopes in the hearts OF the
serious feature is the danger that rail
communication to the north will be sew
cred. For seven miles north the Yazoo
and Mississippi Valley tracks are from a
foot to eighteen inches under water with
the tide steadily rising. If train service
Is suspended the people in that territory
will have no means of getting supplies.
The river hare came to a standstill yes
terday evening, at STA and has remained
stationary all day.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER II, 1903.
JUDGE ROBfNSON'5 Protest.

Senate: Mark Hanna, chairman o.
the National Republican Committee
last Saturday night gave banquet in
Washington to the Republican Nation
al Committee. Judson Lyons, the
negro Registrar OF the Treasury and
mitteeman from Georgia, was pres
ent. Judge w. S. OBJ Robinson, OF
GoIdsboro, was there to attend the ban
quet, but upon seeing the negro Loyns
as guest at the board, Judge Robin
son with no ceremony but the impulse
OF his Irish independence and assertive-
ness turned upon his heel, left the BAN
auet hall and went to his own hotel.
He said at the Arlington, "You may
just tell the people of North Carolina
that came to Washington as a Re-
publican and a gentleman, and that l
am going back feeling the same way"
This triumphant declaration he
made after he had snapped his finger
in the face OF all who had little enough
seIf-respect to mingle at banquet with
a negro although it was gathering OF
Republicans.
Some people think that too much is
said about the negro, and perhaps it is
true; but when men like President
Roosevelt, Dr. Bassett and Senator
Hanna keep pressing the subject upon
the people by their words and acts, how
may we ezpec! the people Of the South
to disregard it?
