Both health and beauty are threat
ened in all cases of chronic catarrh-
No one can expect to have good
health so long as their vitality is sap
ped away with catarrhal discharges.
Facial deformities are largely a re-
suit of catarrh of the head and throat
Thus it is that women especially
dread the ravages of catarrh.
Catarrh is an insidious disease that
silently steals away the vitality and
gradually destroys the symmetry and
beauty of the human body.
Peruna will cure catarrh, no matter
in what part of the system the disease
may have settled.

THE "RATTLER'' A HUMMER.
Paper at Wootton May Bring Town
Into National Prominence.

The little station of Wootton on the
transcontinental line of the Santa Re

miles from the town OF Ration, New
Mexico, will come into national prom
inence if the jealous editor of The
Wootton Daily Rather" perseveres.
THE Daily Rather is puoilshed by
the agent of the Santa Fe railroad at
that point. He gets it out with type

graph. The sheet is a hummer

''via the Rattler's longest leased wire
in the world or perhaps it comes via
the Rattler's longest wireless wire in
the world If the news fails to reach
the Rather via either of the two modes
already mentioned, it may come via
the Rattler's longest creased wire IN
the world" or still by the other means.
''via the Rattler's hottest wire in the
world
If the Rather fails to get all the
news and all the latest senations by
the use of all the various kinds OF
wires, no doubt the editor VIII be able
to make up for the loss by means OF
the dream book which ne keeps IN
a convenient place.
The following is a special dispatch

THE HAIR BRUSH.
Breeds DandrufF, Which Causes Fall
ing Hair and Finally BaIdness.

Prof. Unna. Hamburg, Germany, Euro
pean authority on skin diseases, says that
dandruff is as contagious as any other
malevolent disease, and that one common
source of the spread of dandruf is the use
OF the same hair brush by different per
sons. The way to avoid catching dandruff
or any other disease from another'S brush
is to insist on the use of Newbro's Herpi-
eide. 1t not only kills the dandrun germ,
but it is also an antiseptic that will pre-
vent the catching of any disease whatever
through contagion of another's brush.
