Catarrh Cannot Be Cured

with local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional
disease, and in order to cure 1t you
must take internal remedies. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is
not a quack medicine. 1t was pre-
scribed by one of the best physicians
in this country for years and is a
regular prescription. 1t is composed
of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combinations of the two in
gradients is what produces such
wonderful result in curing Catarrh.

A TRIBUTE OF LOVE
To Miss Kate Criddle.

Her life is ended-did some one
say?
Surely not for it has just begun.
Yes, begun the harvest life today,
Only the seed-time sowing is
done.
She had stored with knowledge, ah,
many a mind,
But this was only her mission in
part;
She possessed a gift of a rarer kind,
1t was to mould and sharpen the
human heart.
She taught them to be men and wo-
men of worth
To have the bearing of gentle
birth;
That Christ had died all sinners to
save,
That the soul shall live beyond
the grave.
The influence of heightened chris
tian teaching
OF the minds she has trained Is so
far reaching
That it is not bound by land nor
sea,
But extends through all eternity.
Her life was SO full of useful beapty,
Always found at the post of duty;
Surely this modest, this gentle, I'M
=. selfish love
Is now in it's realm with the Angels
above.
And these parents today 80 bowed
with sorrow
Will meet their child on the glad
tomorrow,
And God will wipe away every tear
And reward each one for his SER
vice here.
