England's administration OF affairs in
Egypt. Will greatly increase the diff
culties in dealing with the delicate po-
litical situation that confronts Eng

Owing TO the semi-offcial character

But nothing could be palmer than that
leading politicians fear that Roose-

fuse that will yet touch off the up

There is constant comparison to-

FOR CATARRH
Medicine Free in Every Case Where
1t Falls to Relieve.

Neglect or pessimism. we believe,
is the greatest enemy the public has
to contend with when applied to the
loss or recovery of health. Prac-
tically every case of consumption
might have been cured If hope had
been maintained and proper treat
ment had been restored to at the
first symptoms of the disease. Until
the advanced stage is reached con-
sumption is durable. Catarrh is re-
sponsible, we believe, for many
cases of consumption. 1t is about
catarrah we want to talk to you to-
day. incidentally consumption, since
the two are SO closely allied.
We have medicine made from a
prescription of one of the most sue
cessful catarrh specialists known.
We believe it is positively without
an equal We are so satisfied that
we are right, that we will supply
the medicine free in every instance

tons for a reasonable length of

faction in every particular We
want every one to try this medi-
cine at our risk. There are no con-
ditions attached to our offer. We
put the user under no obligations to

The medicine we want you to
! try is Rexall Mucu-Tone 1t is a
catarrh remedy that goes direct to

the blood to every part of the sys-
TEN. 1t purifies and enriches the
blood, tones up the mucous cells,
and brings about condition of
