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 il
the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti-
tutiOnal treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting direct upon
the blood and mucous surfaces Of the
system, thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing it's
work. The P2oprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials.

Insurance and Assurance.

They were talking, the little group
Of agents, about the words insurance
and assurance, some claiming that the
first and some that the second was the
better word to use.
But with a scOrnful laugh a Boston
agent in gold trimmed spectacles said:
"You are all very ignorant. Insur-
ance is no better and no worse than
assurance. Each has special signif-
eance, and each is equally good in its
place. The place for assurance is
where precaution is taken against q
rertainty-against, that is. death. Life
assurance, we should say If we spoke
with perfect correctness. The place for
insurance is where precautiOn is taken
against an uncertainty, such as fire,
shipwreck, burglary. Fire insurance,
marine insurance, we should say

NIGHT RIDER SECRETS
May Be Revealed BY Two

Frankfort, KY, April 9O.-John
Quincy Adams and General Mccoy,
two convicts sent from Trigg county
to the Eddyville penitentiary for per-
jury, although they had been ac-
cused of night riding, have been
sent to the local penitentiary here at
at the request of Gov. Wilson, in
order, it is thought, that he may be
able to talk with them and if possible
learn some of the secrets of the
night riders in Trigg county. The
Governor has not had an opportunity
yet to confer with the convicts, and
therefore has not secured any infor'
nation! The men were the only two
growers in kentucky so far who
have been convicted of the accusa
ton placed against them.
