RexaIl Medical News


If people could only see that Ca
tarrh is an internal scrofula that
nothing applied externally does
much good they would not eed to
be warned so often about this fatal
disease, which invariably ends up in
consumption at the cost of eight to
ten million lives every year and
yet Catarrh is easily cured if you
go about it in the right way.
Catarrh will never get better of its
own accord. 1t will never wear off
like a headache or a bilious spell,
because Catarrh is caused by germs
in the blood, which circulate through
out the entire system. External
remedies give temporary ease, but
Catarrh is not an external disease,
even though the effects are often
seen in the form of pimples, rash,
eczema or dry scaly' skin, and will
never be cured by external remedies.
Catarrh is caused by a germ, and
must be cured by a remedy that first
of all destroys the germs. That
remedy is Rexall Mucu-Tone, pre-
pared from the prescription of ply
stefan whose specially for thirty years
was Catarrh, and whose record of
success was every case cured.
/ am not at all surprised at this
record for Mucu-Tone, because it is
entirely different to any other rem
edy for Catarrh ever sold or YOU
ever bought. Mucu-Tone first Of all
destroys the germs of Catarrh,,
and, at the same time as its very
name implies tones the mucous
tissues that have been ravaged BY
the catarrhal parasites. 1t is a
splendid tonic and appetizer, a per
feet spring medicine. Youwill never
get rid of Catarrh unless YOU get at
it internally. You cannot success
fully treat il internally unless you use
Rexall Mucu- Tone. ! want you to
try ii on my recommendation. I

suits or refund you your money,

THAT Major Lentz, the Republican
leader Of Essex county has the true
idea Of leadership was shown by an in
cident that recently occurred. He was
asked who probably would be the Re
publican candidate for State Senator
il that county, he cynically placed his
ear to the top of a table, listened in
tently for a moment, and then, with
smile which was more interesting than
communicative, replied =" No re-
spouse +" The situation in Essex
county has not sufficiently clarified to
make it safe to prophesy, hence the
Majors wary answer The difference
between a party leader and party
boss is that the leader defers to party
sentiment while a boss seeks to en-
force his own will, and usually has a
brief period of bossism,

Mr.. CoRTELYoU has the right idea
when he says that the best service a
Republican official can render to his
party is to give the public the very
best possible service. This is demon
strated in Morristown where the pos
tai service is a credit alike to the Of
ticials and to the party. He has decided
to codify all rulings made to date and
send them out to all employees in the
postal service There can be no ques-
tion Of the soundness of the depart
ment's view. Postoflice employees,
whether in or out OF the classified ser
vice, can only impair their own eff
cheney and demoralize their associates
by playing actively at politics. The
government service is publicseryice,
and the public has right to expect
that partisanship shall be laid aside,
or at least greatly subordinated, when
government Office is accepted. We
have outgrown the childish idea that
Offices are "spoils, to be distributed
as rewards for party service. Wehave
made the oflceholder's tenure secure
10 protect him from political black
mail, and we have now the right to
demand that he shall serve the public
without partisanship and take no ac-
tive role in agitation or political man
agement And it might be added
that not only in the postal service but
elsewhere, tenure of Office is also in
tended to protect an official in the dis
charge of his duty, and not to make
him independent and Indifferent.

of the most daring daylight robberies
ever known there. He entered the
