The readers or this paper VIII be
pleased to know that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in it's curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure. Send

Big Hotel in the Woods
Tavern Inside Worlds Fair Grounds
Surrounded by Forest, Offers
Luxurious and Restful
Retreat,

The comfort for the visitor to an eX-
position was never the subject for so
much intelligent thought and prepara-
ton as it has been at the Louisiana
Purchase exposition at st. Louis.
One of the features that canot fail
to appeal to the visitor is the convent
ence and comfort afforded by the In
side Inn, structure of 2,257 rooms,
covering an area of 400 by 800 feet,
wholly within the Worlds fair ground.
Probably no hotel ever built COM
mands view so diversified or grand.
From the wide verandas that surround
the mammoth structure q wonderful
panorama spreads before one. Many
of the state buildings, with their giant
and magnificent structures, present
their most attractive facades. Some
of the foreign buildings may be seen,
and the forest Of towers and turrets,
domes and minarets, rlsings above the
great exhibit palaces and seen through
the forests of real trees that surround
the hostelry, give token of the other
glories that lie beyond.
A leisurely walk of five minutes will
| land the visitor on the main terrace in
| front of Festival Hall, the enter of the
main picture" of the Exposition, the
grandest spectacle ever produced by
man. Another five minutes walk and
the visitor Aay find himself on The
Pike, street of amusement, full
mile long, with the shows of all ma.
tions in gay and entlcing array.
In the ten minutes walk many of
the main exhibit palaces have been
passed. These comprise the largest
and grandest collection or architectu,
raj trlumphs ever assembled in any
one place. Notwithstanding its close
proximity to these scenes of gaiety and
splendor, noise and confusion, the In
side Inn offers n delightful retreat
During the noon hour the visitor may
retire for brief rest and resume his
delightful task of sightseeing refresh
ed and 1.-the more able to appreciate
and enjoy the Worlds Fair wonders
The rates at this hotel within the
grounds are no higher than those
charged elsewhere. "A good room may
| be had for $1.50 per day, including ad
mission to the grounds. Other rooms
may be had up to $500 per day, ac
cordlng to the luxuries demanded
There is a restaurant in the building
with q seating capacity for $500 per
sons.
