Catarrh Cannot Be Cured

with Local Applications, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh
is blood or constitutional disease, and
in order to cure it you must take in
ternal remedies. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, and acts directly on
the blood and mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure is not quack medicine. It
was prescribed by one of the best ply
sicians in this country for years and is
regular prescription. 1t is composed
of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combination of the two ingred-
tents is what produces such wonderful
results in curing Catarrh. Send for

Over Thirty-Five Years.

In 1872 there was q great deal of d.
arrhoea, dysentery and cholera infar-
tum. It was at this time that Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy was first brought into use. 1t
proved more successful than any other
remedy or treatment, and has for thirty
five years maintained that record. From
a small beginning it's sale and use has
extended to every part of the United
States and to many foreign countries
Nine druggists out Of ten will recon-
mend it when their opinion is asked,
although they have other medicines
that pay them greater profit. 1t can
always be depended upon, even in the
most severe and dangerous cases. For

A Plea For Prohibition.

Men at midnight wake and wonder
Will this darkness pass away,
Has the gloom no upward lifting,
Will there be a better day?
And their thoughts are oft recurring
To the days long past and gone
Which to them were bright, alluring,
While in them we passed along.
But the past cannot be reached now
We must work for present need,
We must better each new moment
By kinder word and deed.
Make the past our best instructor,
Use the present for our aid,
Utilize them both in future
To correct mistakes we've made.
When we wake lie not to slumber>
There is work for us to do,
We must rise to use the present."
This command to me and you,
This is all that has been promised
And tits all that we can use
TO uplift our fallen brother
To plane of higher views.
Let US then arise and help him,
While we have this "present" day,
Work the work of Him that saved US
And the dark will pass away.
Hasten then, arise, 60 forward,
Swift to see the work to do.
For a brother needs reclaiming
By the work of me and you.
For intemperance must be dealt with
Against this evil we must stand.
Pray and vote for prohibition
And drive the whiskey from our land,
For many brother is overtaken
While many may resist it's spell,
Many have not as yet awakened,
Many are drifting on toward hell.
Help to stop this downward tending,
Help fallen brother rise,
Help to aid those who are sending
Up their prayers and bitter cries.
Help US now, the fight grows warm,
Help us win our native land,
Help US gain a brilliant victory,
Help defeat the devils band.

COMMISSION ON COUNTRY LIFE
To Be Held at College Park on No
yember 9th.
To the Editor of The Republican:

To the Editor of The Republican,:
There will be meeting of the Com
mission on Country Life, appointed by
the President Of the United States, for
the improvement of rural conditions, at
the Maryland Agricultural College on
Monday, Nov 8, 1908
The personnel of this Commission is
OF such character as to make il worth
while for every man and woman, inter-
ested in rural life in MARYLAND, to at
tend this meeting.
The Commission desires to have a
representative gathering of men and
women from Maryland, who have given
the subject some thoug ht and who are
prepared to place their views before the
Commission.
Every one conversant with Maryland
rural conditions appreciates the facts
that the operating agencies for an up
lift in country life are not of vigorous
and progressive character. We need a
campaign Of agitation on this subject.
Under the splendid leadership of this
Commission, untold blessing may be
the harvest of our hearty cooperation
with these able men:
l.. II. Bailey is Dean of the Agricul-
tural College of Cornell University.
Clifford Pinchot is Chief Forester OF
the Bureau of Forestry.
K. l.. Butterfield is President of the
Massachusetts Agricultural College.
Henry Wallace is editor of Wallace's
Farmer, of Iowa.
Walter Page is editor of Worlds
Work.
Prof. Bailey, in defining the work of
the Commission, says: These hear
lngs are not to be speech making meet
lngs on the part of the members of the
Commission. The Commission desires
to take itself to as many localities as it
can, in order that it NAV put itself in
the way of receiving suggestions from
those Who are competent to make
them.
Surely, we have in Maryland many
men and women who are competent to
formulate views on so vital question
as the one under consideration. A large
and enthusiastic meeting is desired.
An earnest appeal is made to those in
tereSted in the advancement of Conn
try Life to be present with well defin-
ed views to place before this Commits
sion
Trusting that the zeal of the people
of Maryland for the improvement of
country life may be of such character
as 10 give us large gathering of men
and women ready for heart to heart
conference bearing upon the factors that
make for the improvement of rural con-
dltlons. Fraternally,
