In the cure of scrofulous swellings, en-

sores, the Golden Medical Discovery has
performed the most marvellous cures. In
cases of old sores, or open eating ulcers,
it is well to apply to the open sores DR..

GERMS IN HER SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read
This.

The number OF diseases peculiar to
woman is such that we believe this
space would hardly contain a mere
mention OF their names. and it is
fact that most Of these diseases are of
a ctarrhal nature. A woman cannot be
well If there is a trace of the catarrhal
germs In her system
Some women think there is no help
for them We positively declare this
to be a mistaken idea. We are so sure
Of this that we offer to supply medi-
cine absolutely free of all cost in every
instance where it fails to- give entire
satisfaction or does not substantiate
our claims. With this understanding,
no woman should hesitate to believe
our honesty of purpose, or hesitate to
put our claims to a test.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrh That way is through the blood
You may use all the snuffs, douches or
like remedies for years without get
ting more than temporary relief at
| best Catarrh is caused by a germ.
That germ is carried by the blood to
the innermost part of the system until
/ the mucous membrane is broken, irri-
| tation and Inflammation produced, and
/ a flow of mucous results, and you can
| probably realize how silly it is TO at
tempt to cure such an ailment unless
YOU take medicine that follows the
same course as the germ or parasite.
RexaIl Mucu-Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription of an
eminent physician who for thirty years
made his speciality catarrh, and with
this medicine he averaged SO per cent
of cures where it was employed. No
| other remedy is so properly designed
for the ailments of woman. It will
purify and enrich the blood, stop mu-
cous discharge, destroy all germ mat
ter, remove all impurities from the
system, soothe, heal and strengthen the
mucous tissues, and bring about a good
feeling of health and strength.
We want you to try Rexan Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If yo uare not
benefited, or for any reason not salts
fed, simply tell us and we will hand
back your money. Rexall MucuTone

Representative Bassetts bill, d.
rected against the use Of loose leaf
ledgers in public offices as a system of
keeping accounts will be reported out

danger of removal of parts of public
records by causing all such records to
be bound, as by the loose leaf method
in his opinion. public official inclined
to be dishonest would find his inclina-
ton helped by the ease with which one
