There is more Catarrh In this Sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable For a great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh
to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls catarrh cure
manufactured by F. j. Cheney & CO.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only cOnstitu-
tlonal cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and

Wretched Misery of the Amiable but
Imprudent Author.


Imprudent Author.
In 1853, two years after Goldsmith
returned from his wanderings on the
continent, he presented himself at Sur
geons' hall for examination as Il hos
pital mate, with the view of entering
the army or navy; but he suffered the
modification Of being rejected as un-
qualified That he might appear be-
fore the examining surgeon suitably
dressed Goldsmith obtained a new suit
Of clothes, for which Griffiths, the
publisher of the Monthly Review, be-
came security. The clothes were to
be returned Immediately when the pur
pose was served. or the debt was to be
discharged. Poor Goldsmith, having
failed in his object and probably dis
tressed by urgent want, pawned the
clothes. The publisher threatened, and
Goldsmith replied:
81 know of no misery but a Jail, to
which my own imprudence and your
letter seem TO point. I have seen it
inevitable these three or four weeks
and, by heavens. request it as a favor
"a favor that may prevent something
more fatal / have been some years
struggling with a wretched being, with
all that contempt and indulgence bring
with it, with all those strong passions
which make contempt lnsupportable
What, then. has Jail that is formida-
ble?'
Such was the hopelessness, the deep
despair of this imprudent but amiable
author who has added to the delight of
millions and to the glory of English
literature.
Within Her Rights.
A very black woman in a silver gray
automobile coat was seen a few morn
ings ago hauling an unwilling and dis
reputable looking yellow dog by a
leather thong.
A friendly disposed policeman asked
casually: "NWhy don't you turn the dog
loose? He don't look able to run off.
and nobody'll want to steal him.?
"Ain't | 'omanY was the tart
query.
There was no disputing the fact.
"Ain't dis heah a dog?'
Patent fact
"Aint dis heah New York;?
Obviously true.
"Well, amt l got good right to
walk on desc heah streets and put on
all the style I choose"
No disputing a self evident proposi-
tion.-News York Times.

be applied sparingly and not till

Permanganate of potash is a
milder remedy, and can be used
by putting enough Of it in water

OF the chickens are dipped in it.

traces OF the disease are stamped

ANOTHER CUBAN CONSPIRACY.

New York, Jan. 7.-Rumors Of a
Conspiracy against the peace Of Cuba
are agaia rife In this city. Three per

the plan again to fOment trouble IN the
Island were efticeholders Of the Palma
administration, two Of whom are now
In New York and the other In Europe.
According to these reports, arms
and ammunition have been shipped
clandestinsly from this port to Cuba
for possible future use. Some Of these
Oontraband articles, It Is said, were
buried near Mariel not far from Hava-

American authorities and Q company
Of soldiers were sent to search for

The opinion Of the Square Deal"
crowd as promulgated by its organs
and bosses is that the men who were
for Burton six years ago constituted
the disreputable riff-raff Of Kansas pol

for Curtis. II this be true the fight
is over. MIR. Burton had so large a
majority Of the state with him that
the opposition took to the woods a
month before the election. If Curtis
is elected it can be charged largely to
the rabid abuse heaped by the Square
Dealers upon every one who would
not knuckle down to them. 1t has

Superintendent Park Of the Union
Pacific, discussing the labor difficult
ties on the Southern Pacific, said: Il
know the fremen on the Union Pa
ciic and they are undoubtedly IS
loyal to their organization as any men
can be. At the same time they recent
lily made an agreement on the wage
question with the company for two
years and they not having any griev-
ance makes it preposterous to think
that they would take part in an affair
that does not concern them.
II can understand how the strike on
the Southern Pacific might extend to
its immediate connections at the seat
Of trouble, but | cannot figure out
how it could reach the Union Pacific
lines. / know that none Of the or
CARNATIONS here or along the lines
favor such extension Of the strike.
The public would be bitterly opposed
to it, as the inconvenience and burden
would fall heavily upon the people
and do not believe our men would
bring this Inconvenience about just
to help the firemen in Texas"
Mr.. Park says the coal situation is
now in good shape and al all the towns
on the lines there is fair supply of
fuel. The company is hurrying coal
to all points and there cannot be a
shortage unless there should be a
strike, followed by severe weather.
In that event it is hard to say what
the result might be.-GOmaha Her
