The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed 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
positive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation ofthe
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The

alive powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

True Words.

1t is easy to throw a blot of ink
upon hue silk, but oh, how hard it
is to wash the stain away You
can nurse a flower for months aud,
alas! just as it is bursting into
bloom, some man can tread upon
it and crush it to death. Did you
ever think of this in counec-
ton with some human being? Did
you ever know of some sweet
young girl, beyond suspicion in
your eyes, ruined by one dark
stain from the ink Bottle of gossip
Did you ever see a girl raised up
like a pot plant, right under the
sheltering wing of a mothers love
suddenly crushed by some evil
report? We have all witnessed
such sad things. And oh. how
careful they should make US in
our conversation. How often in

gun into one of our innocent
maidens and brings one down to

lie Won the Case.

- dSO aOCAAatOA ~
was attending court in a country
town and while waiting for trial OF
a case in which he was interested
he was urged by the attorneys il
dog case to help them. He was
paid fee of $3.50 by the plaintiff
Voluminous evidence was introduc-
ed to show that the defendant had
shot the dog in malice, while other
evidence went to show that the
dog had attacked the defendant.
Vest took no part in the trial and
was not disposed to speak. The
attorneys, however, urged him to
make a speech else their client
would not think he had earned his
/ fee. Being thus urged he arose,
scanned the face of each juryman
for a moment, and said.
Gentlemen of the Jury: The
best friend man has in the world
may turn against him and become
his enemy. His son or daughter
that he has reared with loving care
may prove ungrateful. Those who
are nearest and dearest to us. those
whom we trust with our happiness
and our good name may become
traitors to their faith. The money
that man has he may lose. 1t
flies away from him, perhaps,
when he needs it most. A mans
reputation may be sacrificed in a
moment of i'll considered action
The people who are prone to fall
on their knees to do us honor when
success is with us, may be the first
to throw the stone of malice when
failure settles its cloud upon Our
heads. The one absolutely unset
fish friend a man can have in this
selfish world, the one that never
proves ungrateful or treacherous,
IS his dog.
A mans dog stands by him in
prosperity and in poverty, in
health and in sickness. He will
sleep on the cold ground, where
the winter winds blow and the
snow drives fercely, if only he
may be near his masters side.
He will lick the wounds and sores
that come in encounter with the
roughness of the world. He
guards the sleep of his pauper
master as if he were a prince;
when all other friends desert, he
remains. When riches take wings
and reputation falls to pieces, he
is as constant in his love as the sun
in its journey through the heavens.
If misfortune drives the master
forth an Outcast in the world,
friendless and homeless, the faith
full dog asks no higher privilege
than that of accompanying him, to
guard against danger, to fight
against his enemies. And when
the last scene of all comes; and
death takes the master in his
embrace and his body is laid away
in the cold ground, no matter if
all other friends pursue their way,
there by the graveside will the
noble dog be found, his head be-
tween his paws, his eyes sad but
open with alert watchfulness, faith
full and true even in death,
Then Vest sat down. He had
spoken i'll a low voice, without a
gesture. He made no reference to
the evidence or merit of the case.
When he finished, judge and jury
were wiping their eyes. The jury
filed out. but soon returned with
verdict in faver of the plaintiff for
$500, He had sued for 5000. 1t
is even said that some of the jurors
wanted to hang the defendant

OPPORTUNITIES IN WEST.
Mr.. G. J. blanchard Discusses Benefits
Of Land Reclamation.

Mr.. Clarence =. Blanchard. statistician OF
the reclamation service, in lecture before
the meeting of the Mems Club of st. John
Episcopal Church. Potomac and o streets
northwest, Tuesday evening. pointed out
many opportunities open to the young men
in the west. Mr.. Blanchard's lecture, which
was illustrated followed an informal mu-
steal program. The subject OF the lecture
was ''rhe National Reclamation of the
Desert.
Mr.. Blanchard said In part. The west is
the land OF opportunity. and the great de-
veloprnent now going on In that region has
wfdened the field of human endeavor.
There are openings in all lines OF industry
for those who are willing to work. 1t is
especially q favorable field for common
laborers just now, owing to the initiation
OF government construction, the extension
of railroads and the rapid growth of cities
and towns Opportunities offered I'M
der the government works for a laborer
with family to take up homestead and
during construction the male members of
the FAMILY can work on the canals. The
contractors all over the west are complain
ing of the scarcity of men and the farmers
are begging for help 1t would seem that
these conditions indicate an excellent time
for social economists who are concerning
themselves greatly over the congestion in
eastern centers of population to Investigate
the question of transferring some of these
men TO manless lands. The government
might also interest itself in this problem.
THE east is no longer provincial in re-
gard to the west; the relations between the
citizens of the seaboard cities of both
oceans are growing closer and more friend
ly each year. The press is largely respon-
sible for the change. as in season and out
ii has advocated the internal expansion
which Is proposed by the work of reclaim
ing the public domain. the heritage of all
the people and the future home of millions
of our best citizens.
From the days of Webster down to the
present time it has been the fashion to de-
cry and sneer at our arid territory. Great
statesmen have denounced chimerical
every attempt to make its development a
national movement Within the last quar-
ter of century the pioneers of the desert
have wrested from aridty more than TO-
100000 acres of land, have invested $780,
100000 In irrigating systems. and are now
annually reaping harvests valued at more
than $50, GEO. coo.
