The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only catarrh cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the founda
tion of tho disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith IN it's curative powers that they

ENEMY OF OIL TRUST DIES.
George Rice, Standards Deadly Foe
Is Stricken.

Asbury Park. N. j., March g.
George Rice, persistent, implacable and
life enduring enemy of the Standard
Oil company, whose business, he al
legged, was ruined and whose health
was undermined by the efforts of the
trust to force him to the wall, died
here during the day from pneumonia
following all attack of the grip.
Last December the final effort of Mr..
Rice to secure reparation from the oil
trust was thrown out of the United
States circuit court at Trenton. He
never recovered from this blasting OF
his hopes. Mr.. Rice was siXty-five
years old. He was the author of the
famous book, BLACK Death" circu-
lated in the oil country freely years
ago. which took the methods of the
oil trust as theme.
He inspired the fight against the
trust in Ohio and made public the
story that bribe of 100000 had been
offered by the Standard Oil company
to stop the prosecution in that state

A lighthouse over every sunken ship

sailor and government employee In

trlvance Is adopted. 1t has already
been fayorably passed upon by ship

after 1t is adopted, In the opinion of
firm of stockholders who are interested
In the invention.
The device Is composed Of two or
more cylinders two and one half feet
In diameter and running from the deck
to the keel of the ship. In the upper
end of each Of these cylinders a buoy
is placed. Under ii and fast to 1t thou

coiled. The buoy will float when the
vessel sinks. 1t is filled with gas,

invention, the work of raising the YES

The specially designed graphing irons

the buoy lines as a guide, and at the
bottom will find grip on chains fas-

With holds thus secured the work of

beneficial to the system? If so, will
it not benefit every organ of the sys-
tenn TO purify the blood, and elimi-

the proper condition of health? IF so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
