Catarrh of the kidneys is very com

People have kidney disease. They
take some diuretic, hoping to get better.
They never once think Of catarrh. Kid

knee when the shot was fired. He
claims that he reached into his in

left hand. Bulger swore that when
Stewart knocked him down he was
dazed and had no distinct recollec-
tion of the shooting.
Scott gave bond, his father, Wal
ter Scott, going his security. The
case now comes up before the grand

PHYSICIANS ENDORSE 1T.
Recognize Ascatco As True Specific
For Asthma and Catarrh.

New York, Nov. 22.-In spite OF
the we'll known reluctance with
which American physicians accept
the discoveries of foreign specialists,
the new Austrian drug, ascatco, has
attracted the attention of the medi-
cal profession in this country more
than anything that has heretofore
emanated from the savants of Eu-
rope. Two years have elapsed since
its Introduction from abroad and as
catco is today almost universallyrec-
ognized as positive specific for asth-
ma, catarrh and bronchitis, especially
as the relief obtained from it is not
palliative but permanent, even in the
most chronic cases.
More than one hundred thousands
sufferers have received this treat
ment from the Austrian dispensary,
at 32 West 25th street, New York
City, which, by special commission,
supplies ascatco free to all sufferers
who write for it.

BIG DEAL IN TOBACCO.
Fifty thousand Dollars Said to Have
Changed Hands as a Result.

Carrollton, KY, Nov 22.-The
largest deal in the tobacco trade in
Kentucky in many months was con-
summated here yesterday when the
Barker Tobacco company, of this
city, one of the most extensive re-
handlers and buyers of tobacco in
the world, sold out to the American
Tobacco company.
The price paid for the plant was
$4,000 it is claimed, and the deed
will go on record some time today.
The Barker company for many
years past bought UP all the tobacco
it could get within radius of seUsn-
ty-five to one hundred miles from
Carrollton, and rehandled and sold
about 5000, 900 annually.
The firm has three large ware
houses besides an immense drying
and rehandling plant in this city, and
IN the busy season employs between
275 and 800 hands.
1t is expected that the trust will
enlarge the, plant and make it its
chief rehandling depot in this sec
tion of the state.
