How to Get Rid
ofCataFrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way,
and it Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
Its mtseries. There is no need OF tHis
suffering. You can get rid of II by a
simple. safe. inexpensive. home treatment
discovered by DR.. BlOsser. who. for over
thirty-four years. has been treating ca
tarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other. IL
is not spray. douche. salve. cream. or
inhaler. but is q more direct and thor
oCgh treatment than any OF them. II
cleans out the head. nose, throat and
lungs so that you can again breathe free
ly and sleep without that stopped-up feel
ing that all catarrh sufferers have. II
heals the diseased membranes and makes
q radical cure, 50 that you viii not be
constantly blowing your nose and splitting,
and al the same time Il does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach, as in
ternal medicines do.
II you want TO test this treatment with
out cost. send your address TO Dr.. J. w.
Biosser, 81 Walton street. Atlanta. Ga.
and he viii send you by return mail
enough OF the medicine TO satisfy you
that IL is all he claims for II as q remedy
for catarrh.s catarrhal headaches. ca
tarrhal deafness. asthma. bronchitis, colds
and all catarrhal complications. He win
also send you free an illustrated booklet.
Write him Immediately.

A sharp argument followed, and the
court ruled out the editorial because
it mentioned the names neither of the
deceased nor the defendant. The state
begged for a chance for more argu-
ment, and the jury was sent out Coun-,
sci on both sides talked earnestly until
the shadows grew long and the court
tired. The gavel fell, and the judge
briefly announced that he saw no rea-
son to change his ruling excluding the
editorial from the jury. The state
made another effort to change the ruling.
but without avail, but induced the judge
to reserve his decision until Thursday.
Judge Told Attorneys To Fight
The attorneys for both sides seemed an
gry so Judge Hart said.
81 will adjourn court now, and If you
want to fight you can go out and fight
all you want to-"
Hereafter, too, when counsel make
an objection it must be made by one
lawyer Here We have spent our time
listening to speeches, and it must
STOP"
IF you will force the state to com
ply with that order we will do so,''
said Judge Anderson.
"Ail right" remarked the court.
I'm going to force you all to do IT. I
like oratory, but I'm getting surfeited."
Court then adjourned until a. M,
Thursday.
