Tie body OF Mr.. wentz was found by q
boy. The boys are valuable adjutcts to
the detective system. Few things can
be hidden from thcir prying eyes They
peer into sewers, old wells, brushwood
and nearly everywhere else. and az once
discover mysteries that are hiden from
older persons. Hundreds Of men had
y enrched the woods where the boy found
Mr. Wentzs body, but were unrewarded
for their pains; but when those youths
catno upon the ground the mystery wns
rotenied to them.
The lesson Of this experience Is that
t'jhkeiton and the other great detective
agencies would better employ constantly
I. corps Of "boy detectives"

With the death Of Henry Morton Stnn-
Icy most notable career Is closed.
That man was brought up and educated
In n poor house! Starting out under
such embarrassing circumstances, he be-
came one Of the greatest and most USE
full explorers that tho world has ever
known, and made the geography Of Africa
anow. lie was also author of a num-
berfof interesting and Instructive books,
and received many honors from crowhed
heads. 1t is an object lesson to our
youthful readers that man born in an
almshouse should have made reputation
long before his death as wide as the
whole world.

and source Of annoyance, not only
to the one who has 1t, but everybody
else. The thick, yellow discharge
from the head produces feeling OF
personal defiement, and the odor Of
the breath is almost intolerable.
The catarrhal poison brings on
stomach troubles and affects the Kid

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 secure
from its ravages. Catarrh makes
you sick all over, for Il is q dis

through the system, and for this
reason, sprays, washes, inhalers,
powders and salves have proven
failures.
The way to cure Catarrh thor
