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 positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors 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

It was stated in an argument that
more beer is drunk every year in the
United States than In Germany. Isthis
correct? V. N.
1.-THE latest statistics we ave do not
bear out the statement. AS a beer-pro-
ducing country we are second. but for
beer-consuming We are only fifth on
the list, with Belgium and Great Brit
ain ahead of us, as well as Germany
and Denmark. The following figures
are taken from the official return for
1905 on alcoholic beverages, and repre-
sent the number of gallons of beer con-
sumed per head every year:
United Kingdom III
Germany 1o.o

So far as production goes. the princi-
pal producing countries are given be-
low, with the quantities in millions of
gallons:

Lad O. Dreams
BY 3. DE ROY KOCH

Come, Gray Eyes, to the Walls of Dreams,
In the far-away Land Of Rest,
Where the gray moon losses its silver beams
On the hills of the Swallowed West.
Come with me, to the Groves of Sleep,
On the shore of the Sea of Time,
Where the fittering lights of the pale stars peep
Where the whitening ghost-trees climb.
Come, Gray Eyes, with your Lad O. Dreams,
To the s~lumbering realm of Peace,
Ere the worn night wanes, and the dawn-light CLEANS.
And the Pickering wish-thoughts cease.
Well never return, If you say, Gray Eyes,
Well wonder along for aye
So close your lids, lest the night shades rise,
And the black of the East grows gray.
