There is no pause in the narrative.
There are no stage waits. The move

the terrible curse of Catarrh. This dis
ease Is inflammatory In its nature and Is
very liable to affect the mbranes and
tissues of any vital organ or part of the
system and produce results which cause
lifetime of suffering and regret.
Men of science and students of medi-
cine have tried In vain for years to find
a positive cure, but it has remained for
one living In our own generation to fin
ally discover what he claims to be a GER
tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ Of
the body. His claims are vouched for
by the words of hundreds of people whose
honesty cannot be doubted; people who
have suffered for years and tried every
other known re edy without avail;
people who had not faith at hrst but
were finally cured and convinced of the
wonderful power of this new discovery
In medical science.
The famous physician to whom tho
credit belongs for this wonderful devel.
opment and addition to twentisth.cent.

The st. Louis Worlds Fair proves.
as everybody knew it would. an lnvit-
ing field for tine ticket .scalper, whose
sphere of operations has been for the
last few years growing small by de-
grees and beautifully less. The rail
road managers. forewarned. have been
forearmed, and the courts of st. Lon
is appear to have no doubt either of
the law or their duty in the case.
Fines of $3.50 and $500. accompanied
with from ten TO sixty days in Jail,
are handed out with neatness and
dispatch, and the nefarious business
is evidently to be broken up from its
foundations. Patrons of ticket scalp
ers. however, have received an addi-
tional warning in the fact that while
they not only stand to lose their money
they are also likeIy to be involved as
sccompljces or detained as witnesses
for the prosecution In any way it is
looked at. the less the honest traveller
has to do with the scalper the better.
for the apparent saving in the trans
action IS likely to prove in the end the
most dearly bought experience. =

buildings are still left in Europe. The

fifteenth century and was restored about
100 years ago. For several years, how
