There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was SUD- posed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro- nounced ita local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be q constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall $ Catarrh Cure. manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct ly on the blood and mucous sur faces of the system.

ORIGIN OF POSTAGE STAMPS.

Quite recently there has been more
or less discussion as to the origin of
the postage stamp.
Perhaps the most authentic story
is that which comes from the post
Office department at Washington.
1t appears that about sixty f We
years ago Rowland Hill was travelling
through one of the northern districts
of England and for time was So
journing at an inn where the postman
came with a letter for young miss,
who turned it over and over in her
hand and after examining the envel-
ope infinitely inquired the price of the
postage. which was shilling. She
sighed sadly and returned the letter
to the postman, saying that it was
from her brother. but that she had no
money.
Mr.. Hill was an onlooker and was
touched with pity. He paid the post
age and his action seemed to embar-
rass the girl. When the postman had
gone she told Mr.. Hill that some
signs marked on the envelope convey
ed to her all she wanted to know and
that as fact there there was no
writing inclosed. In extenuation she
said that she and her brother hadscon-
trived code system of communicate
ing, as neither of them were able to
pay post charges.
Mr.. Hill thought of the results of a
system which made such frauds pos
sible. Before another day he had
planned a postal system upon the
present basis. -Harper's Weekly.
