Catarrh Poisons.

Catarrll is capable Of schanging. all the
life giving secretions of the body into
scalding fluids, which destroy and inf1ame
every part they come in contact with.
Applications to the places affected by ca
tarrh can do little good save to soothe or
quiet disagreeable symptoms. Hence it is
that gargles,, sprays, atomizers and in
halants only serve as temporary relief. So
long as the irritating secretions of catarrh
continue to be formed SO long will the
membranes continue to be inf1amed, no
matter what treatment is used.

The decision, recently announced,
that the Liberty Bell is not to be
taken on any more junketing trips
is said to be due largely to the in
fiuence of the women of Philadel-
phia. They protested vigorously
against sending it about over. the
country as course inconsistent
with its historic dignity. The pro-
test was most just. The Liberty
Bell belongs in Philadelphia, where

almost always from contact with per

To cure Dyspepsia or Indigestion it is

wholesome food that one cares to eat, and

It Is needless to call upon history

Magazine, Every Where. The vener-
able Gladstone did the thinking and
much of the speaking for the govern

pireE Of the world, almost up to the

age of 91, carries the burdens of q

Ger at 81 reads and digests the news
and literature of the world and re-
creates therefrom an immortal phi
losophy. In our own land the sturdy
Senator Morrill, and Evarts, the jur-
ist, worked out their problems of
state and law almost up to the very
hour when they were called to higher
. fields of effort; and to-day ex-senator
Bradbury, of Maine, aged 80, and Sen
atOr Pettus, of Alabama, at 81, are
busy with the affairs of this world.
The venerable David Wark, the
