throat can be kept clear of mucous
and splitting. Catarrh is a nuisance
and source of annoyance, not only
to the one who has it, but everybody
else. The thick, yellow discharge
from the head produces a feeling of
personal d~eflement, and the odor of
the breath is almost intolerable.
The catarrhal poison brings on
stomach troubles and affects the Kid
neys and Bladder. Il attacks the
soft bones and tissues of the head
and throat, causing total or partial
deafness, the loss of smell, and CIV
ing to the voice a rasping, nasal
twang. No part of the body is ecure
from its ravages. Catarrh makes
you sick all over, for it is a dis
ease of the blood, and circulates all
through the system, and for this
reason, sprays, washes, inhalers,
powders and salves have proven
failures.
y The way to cure Catarrh thor
oughly and permanently is to cleanse
the blood of the unhealthy secretions
that keep the membranes of the body
infamed, and nothing does this so
surely and promptly as S. S. S. AS
long as the blood is poisoned with
Catarrhal matter the discharge of I

Watsontown, Pa, July 70, 1908.
Dear Sirs:
have used 8. s. 8. for Catarrh of he
inner ear, and have found it an, excel
lent remedy for same. I had been
troubled with this disease for years
and tried. many things in an effort to
get relief, but nothing did me any
permanent good until I began s. S. s.
I had a discharge from my ear and my
hearing was SO badly affected that I
could not hear the tick of a clock. Twas
in bad shape when began your med
icine. 8. s. 8. has done away with the
discharge and my hearing has been
wonderfully improved; so much so
that I can now carry on a conversation
in an ordinary tone, whereas a year
ago this was impossible.
Your medicine has done me a world OF
good and I do not hesitate to give it the
credit it deserves.

A Bold UoIduB.

WithiE my time in Texas (and lam
coaches containing about twenty-three
passengers were stopped and all the
valuabies of the passengers taken by
one man. The robber made them all
stand in a row and "hand over" The
route was only travelled by one coach,
but on account of the large number of
passengers an additional coach was put
on that day. The robber stopped the
first coach and made the passengers
get out. When the passengers in the
first coach were lined up the second
coach made its appearance. He made
them get out and then told them he
didn't expect two coaches. That was
nerve. A Jew insisted on retaining
enough of his money to get his dinner.
The robber took all and then gave him
back so cents, and the Jew got into an
argument with him as to the amount
being sufficient to get a meal. That
was cheek. The robber went off with
all the money Of the twentythree pas
senge1s, and yet there were many
brave men in that caravan, but discre-
ton was the better part of valor. The
robber had two pistols out and ready.
A shot from one of the twenty-three
would have caused the robber to shoot,
and several would have been killed.
That's the only way they looked at it.

has entered into a contract with this
company to act as it's agent in selling
some of its stock.
New and promising gold and silver ore
veins, which have been uncovered in ad-
dition to the copper ore first discovered
on the company's property, have been
worked during the past year and all re-
ports from the mines strengthen the con-
viction heretofore held that the company
has large and valuable mining property.
A company only mile west of the Yer
mont and Arizona company's property
is preparing to spend $4,000 this year
in working their mine, indicating that
this region is mineral bearing. The Yer
mont and Arizona company propose dur
ing the present year to take out and
treat for commercial purposes the gold,
silver and copper ore bodies already
developed.

Hogs by the Ton.

One does not reckon the weight of hogs
by the ton very often, but Manager Spen-
Ger of the Fairbanks grocery store had
chance to do this last week when 13
dressed hogs arrived whose total weight

by Sherb. Moore for E. & T. Fairbanks
& Co. of B. M. Fuller of Ryegate and
were the finest lot ever seen at the Fair
banks store. The average weight of the
lot was nearly 800 pounds and the
individual weight was as follows: $50
442, 366. 400. 44O, AS, 412, 345. 372
40. SAG. 374, $40. These were all IS
months old and TOR the past four months
have been fed on nothing but meal. Mr.
Fuller lives in a town famous for its
dairy butter, but hereafter Ryegate will
nave another farm product to add to its
reputation as a successful agricultural
community. This town is also the home
of the new paper Progressive Farmer.
