How to Prosper

Editor. Independent Those of your
readers who are continually complain
ing OF hard times should take les
son from Patrick Mahaney of Derby,
Conn. BY the exercise of thrift and
frugality Mr.. Mahaney has saved
enough to enable him to live without
working. His method is so simple
and easily followed that no one has
any excuse for complaining of hard
times. Mr.. Mahaney has worked as
a farm hand for thirty-two years. He
has always received board from his
employers, anG clothed himself in
their cast-off garments. His expendi-
lures for the thirty-two years
amounted to $44.90, an average of less
than II cents month, which we are
reliably informed was spent "princi-
pally for newspapers" The result of
his strict attention to the virtues of
saving which are inculcated by our
leading newspapers is seen in the S.
200 with which Mr.. Mahaney joins the
ranks of the Morgans, Rockefellers
and others whose thrift and industry
also enables them to live without
working-unless they choose to con-
tinue to work other people as pas
| time. A. G. PLEYDELL.

Catarrh is the most insidious,
most dangerous disease that menaces
mankind, and from which in one
form or another no less than H.
10000 men and women In this
country are sufferers.
Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membranes-the membranes which
line the passages of the head, throat,
stomach and the various other
organs of the body.
In its simplest form il is known
as "cold," but "cold neglected
causes catarrh of the head in its
most terrible forms.
Catarrh of the head unchecked
quickly becomes catarrh of the
throat; then catarrh of the bron-
chial tubes, and consumption, the
dread disease that annually brings
death 10 more than too hundred
thousand people.
Then there is catarrh of the intes-
tines, Of the kidneys, the liver and
the generative organs. But whatever
organ affected, catarrh is a disease
of the mucous membranes.
Until now catarrh has been treat
ed Generally. Science sought in vain
for the specific-the exact combina-
ton of medicinal drugs necessary to
effect a prompt, safe, permanent
cure.
Scientific men fought catarrh
with indifferent success.
Where they could reach the seat
of the trouble they used sprays,
snuffs, ointments, etc.
Where they could not reach the
diseased parts they gave merely a
general system tonic.

The local treatment often dispelled
the symptoms temporarily, but did
not cure. The poison was sealed in
and would necessarily break out
again.
The tonic had brscing effect for
a short time, but only postponed the
inevitable result.
Years and years of time, and
thousands and thousands of dollars,
have been spent in vain efforts to
discover the remedy that would per-
mhnently cure this terrible disease.
SCIENCE HAS WON SUCCESS.
1t remained for n group of famous
ntists-physicians and phnrmn-
CeutiCal working in the
laboratories OF the United Drug Co.
at Boston, Mass, to discover the
great vital principle which Is now
revOlutiOntZing the treatment of
catarrh throughout the civilized
world.
This principle Is embodied EN-
CLUSIVELY In the remedy which
we are providing TO sufferers under
the name OF RENALL MUCU-TOSE.
As catarrh develops the mucous
membranes become highly infamed,
the muco-cells become packed with
poisons which through their swollen
and torpid condition they are unable
to throw off. A nauseating dis
charge follows, and the poison,
! picked up by the blood, is carried
throughout the entire system.
THE, REXALL METHOD.
ReXali Mucu-TOne is a powerful
/ Alternative which attacks the seat of
the disease. It Is carried through
the arteries and veins direct to the
/ mucous membranes, causing the
packed and poisoned muco-cells 20
release and eXpel the matter con-
tanned.
