Fergus Falls, Mimi, Feb 12.-The dis
cussion in educational circles in different
parts of the state relative to the ability
of high school graduates to pass the reg
ular teachers examinations, has led tc
an investigation here. and it has been
found that every high school graduate
who has taken the examination since the
present state examination law went into
effect two years ago has passed with
credit and the majority of them have
had markings high enough for first grade
certificates. AS Fergus Falls has high
school of over 200 students, this is GER

from catarrhal affections should know
of the merits of Mucu-Tone. It surely
cures catarrh, as I can testify. / had
for a long time been a sufferer from
nasal and bronchial catarrh, and had
tried local treatments and so-called
catarrh cures without any lasting bene-
fit. A friend of mine who had been
cured of catarrh of the stomach by the
use of Mucu-Tone urged me to try that
remedy. As a result I am entirely
cured not only of catarrh but Of the
debility which seems always more or
less associated with the disease.

WHAT IS CATARRH =?

When we talk of Catarrh -
you must not think we mean only
that form of catarrh which affects
the nose and throat, and is very
similar to bad cold. Catarrh is
Pc q disease that attacks any part of
the body, wherever the mucous
membrane extends, and that is
practically all over the entire sys-
tenn, for the mucous membrane is
the delicate lining of all the Or
gans of the body.
Catarrh is inflammation and con-
gestion of the mucous membrane
wherever located.
Consequently you can have ca
tarrh in any part Of the body.
Your back may ache or you may
have headaches, disordered stom-
ach or bladder trouble. Possibly
there are no acute symptoms and
you are merely run down and worn
out-so miserable that you feel
! tired of life.
HEED NATURES WARMING.
s All these are symptoms of ca
tarrh. They are Natures warning
that some part of the mucous
membranes has become inAamed
and the little cells stopped up
with poisonous secretions.
Rexall Mucu-Tone was created
to correct these unhealthy con-
ditions. ...
z. PROMPT, HEALTHY STIMULATION
Mucu-Tone, working through
{ the bloodvessels, is carried by them
direct to the infamed membranes.
s'S Here it drives out the poisons and
allays the inflammation.
| If you try Mucu-Tone for any
gtsof the troubles above described
z and it doesn't do what we claim,
q all you have to do is to say so and
we will hand you back your money
without question.
