 the terrible curse of Catarrh. This dis
 ease is inhammatory in its nature and is
 very liable to affect the membranes 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 nedi-
 cine have tried in vain for years to find
 positive cure, but it has remained for
 one living in our own generation to fin ally discover what he claims to be a cer tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ of the body. His claims are vouehed for by the words of hundreds of people whose
 honesty cannot be doubted; people whit
 have suffered for years and tried every other known re e dy without avail;
 people who had not faith at first but were finally cured and convinced of the wonderful power of this new discovery in medical science.
 The famous physician to whom the
 credit belongs for this wonderful devel- opment and addition to twentieth-cent- ury science is DR. J. A. JONAS, No. 776. Fredericksen Bldg, South Bend, Ind. He will send anyone who is suffering from Ne@seliAA e lASS l1CdNAllSlAb " PlSFS MN

by yesterdays active buying left the market more vulnerable. But yester- days advanced had induced some hopes of a further rise and brought into the market this morning a slightly increas- ed demand. Some of the large wire commission houses sent out market let ters last night which were framed in a more bullish tone than any similar output for many weeks past. The re- suit was a period Of strength during the early part of the day. Another sustaining factor has been the persist ance with which professional traders have fought the advance by short sales of stocks. The necessity of covering these shorts as the advance continued has served to extend the rise material ly. The days early advances had been something more than lost and the market had steadied when the news of the Sully suspension on the cotton ex- change decided the downward tenden- ! ey. There was a liberal spilling out of stocks and a sharp break in prices to aoint below last nights for few of the leading active stocks. But vigorous supporting orders were forthcoming at the decline and the market rallied. There was nothing to show any large pressure of liquidation of stocks as a direct result of the cotton failure. MT. Sully's recent admission to stock ex- change membership and a supposition that he was affiliated with party in the stock market speculation Of con- s,,a the grounds for the sentimental influ- ence exerted on the stock market by the failure. The speculative attitude of Wall street as whole towards the 1 bull movement in cotton has been rath- CT adverse and Wall street speculators | are supposed to have lost large sums 1 by persisting on the short side of the cotton market It has been through current supposition that the cotton leader was interested on the short side of the stock market. The weeks move ment in that market combined with the collapse in cotton, in that case, would have caused a process of whipsawing or os losses both ways which would be
 trying to the heaviest resources. The assertions that the operator was short in the stock market met with some de- nials. but the nervous tone in stocks
 caused by the failure continued to the
 closing which was feverish and irregu-
 lar. The forecast of a favorable bank
 statement came after the Sully failure
 was announced and was without in- | fiuence
 There was moderate activity in the
 bond market and the tone was irregu- lar. Total sales par value g, ,71O,OOO

VETERAN OF SEMINOLE WAR

Warren w. Morgan, who died Tues

 Robert Swain. MT. Morgan at one time
 owned the old Dr. Clegg house at Nor-
 wich Town, living there for about fif- teen years, until the civil war, after
 which he sold the house to MT. Pome-
 roy Smith. Mr. Morgan was veteran
 of the Seminole war and was a. brave
 soldier. He enlisted under Lieutenant
 Lincoln on September 5, 1840, during
 Van Buren's administration, and was
 honorably discharged in 1845, during
 Folks administration. While in battle
 he was wounded four times, being shot
 in his forehead, in his neck, and in the
 leg, and he always carried as a reminds
 CT of the war bullet in his right shoul- der. MT. Morgan was the last of fam fly renowned for their bravery in battle. General Hackett, his -great-grand- fatheh, was killed at Bunker Hill, as was his grandfather, General Morgan. His maternal grandfather was killed in battle at New Orleans, and his father, an army surgeon, was killed at Ports- mouth. MT. Morgan was eighty-seven years of age and has no living relatives. He was in good health and was hale and hearty until very recently, when he shad two shocks. Bulletin.

refused to consider golf a sport and have abandoned it as a fad. just as they did croquet and the bicycle.
 Whether or not golf can survive its desertion by high society is a question. Opinion of experienced golfers is divid- ed. Not a few assert that persons who ape society in sport as they do in every thing else also will abandon golf. 9th CTS say that. while society has proved a traitor to the game. true golfers will stick to it. They point with pride" to the fact that golf is now becoming just as much a craze west of Chicago as it was in the East few years ago. Man. utaeturers of golf supplies admit that .heir market is changing, and that the increase in the Western trade atones for the falling off in the Eastern.
 'The dudes cannot kill golf" said Arthur Pottow, editor of the official golf guide. Tt is true that certain num- Der of society persons are abandoning it, but it does not make much difference what they do. They go in for any fad of the moment. The more expensive and out of reach of persons of moderate means. the better they like it. Golf diff CTS very materially from bicycling and similar pastimes. It is not fad, but a true sport, just the same as cricket or baseball. Baseball thrives in spite of the fact that society does not take it up, So will golf."-From the New York Press,

A Haitian Glass Eve.

Some years ago a Haitian general
wrote to Paris optician to supply him
with glass eye. The optician, f1atter-
ing himself that successful eye would
secure for him a Haitian decoration, de-
voted his utmost intelligence to the pro-
duction of a splendid glass optic. Six
months elapsed. A small box reached
him from Haiti. A cross glittered in
his imagination; but, to his horror,
within folds of cotton, was his original
eye, accompanied by the following
note: "Sir--The eye you forwarded to
me is Of a tint that resembles that of
the Spanish flag, and am too patriotic
to wear any but the color of my coun-
try" The optician proceeded at once
to the admiralty, there ascertained the
colors of the Haitian flag and then man
ufactured a scarlet and green eye,
which he forwarded.

In book on Japan Douglas Staden
.ecounts the things that the Japanese
have not. They have no bread, no
beds, no boots and shoes, no trousers
for the men, no petticOats for the wo-
men. This sounds alarming, but both
sexes wear instead several dressing
gowns, one over the Other-the kimO-
nos of commerce In their houses they
have no windows, no doors, no walls,
no ceilings, no chests of drawers, not
even washing stand, and the ward
robe is only a lot of boxes piled one
on top of another. In the kitchens they
have no range, no pots, no pans, no
-four bins, no -four. no kitchen tables.
But, then, they have no tables or
chairs in the drawing room, and in the
real native house the drawing room it
self is only a lot of bedrooms with
their walls taken down. There is no
reason why you should find anything
in a Japanese house except mats and
a charcoal stove for warming your fin
gers and the teapot and committing
suicide. Japan is full of cherry trees
and plum trees, but they do without
fruit. The cherries are used for the
blossoms and the plurls for hanging
poems on.

Magnet. and Magnetism.

The modern theory Of magnetism,
known as Webers. aided greatly by
the work of Professor Ewing, main
tains that even the smallest physical
quantity, the molecule, present in a
bar magnet is itself minute magnet.
Hence the power Of the magnet de-
ponds entirely, in the first place, upon
molecular arrangement
This can be easily seen by filling a
glass tube with steel filings, loosely
packed. At first these are all in disOr-
der, but if magnet is drawn over the
tube they begin to turn themselves
into one direction till perfect alignment
takes place, when the tube acquires
the properties of a magnet.
The breaking of bar magnet into
pieces, each piece in turn becoming a
magnet, confirms this theory. So does
saturation, as it is called, when the
molecules are arranged and no further
effect takes place. The theory of mag
netic keepers closing the lines of force,
thus preserving and not dissipating
the power, is also in accordance with
this. The primary source of magnetic
power is still unknown.

Gratitude of = Deg.

Olive Thorne Miller tells Of dog
which belonged to a colonial family
and was particularly noted for his an
tipathy to Indians, whom he delighted
to track. On one campaign against
the French this dog insisted on accom-
panying his master, although his feet
were in a terrible condition from hav-
ing been frozen during the previous
winter. During the fight which ended
in the famous Braddock's defeat he
became separated from his master, and
the latter. supposing him killed. went
home without him. Some weeks later,
however, the dog appeared in his old
home, which was many miles from the
battlefield He was tired and worn,
but over his sore feet soft moccasins
were fastened, showing that he had
been among Indians and that they had
taken especial pains to be kind to him.
Thereafter, though he showed great
Joy at being again among his own PEG.
pie, neither threats nor brides could
ever induce him to track an Indian.
