How to Get Rid
of CataFrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Wv.
and t Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
its miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of it by a
simple, safe, inexpensive, home treat
ment discovered by DIR. Blosser who,
for over thirty-five years, has been treat
ing catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
1t is not a spray, douche, salVe, cream,
or inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
1t cleans out the head, nose, throat
and lungs so that you can again breathe
freely and sleep without that stopped
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers
have. 1t heals the diseased mucous
membranes and arrests the foul dis
charge. SO that you will not be con-
stantly blowing your nose and splitting,
and at the same time it does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach, as in
ternal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your addr ess to DR..
]. w. Blosser, 800 Walton street, Allan
ia, Ga. and he will send you by return
mail enough of the medicine to satisfy
YOU that it is all he claims for it as a
remedy for catarrh, catarrhal head
aches. catarrhal deafness, asthma, bron-
chitis. colds and all catarrhal complica-
tions. He will also send you free an
illustrated booklet. Write him imme-
diatey.

buoyant confidence in victory soon to

the order came to recross the river and
turn to naught all their expenditure of

and which had been picked clean by the
birds and beasts of prey, cleaned in
ghastly pallor under the beams of the
fires with which the men cooked their
supper, and the grinning skulls and
scattered bones of Union and Confeder-
ate intermingled, for neither had been
deemed worthy of Sepulture.
Before building their fires the SOL
diers tore the logs, poles and stumps
out of the deserted breastworks built
by both sides on the last day of the
struggle. Where the panic-stricken rush
of the wagons and ambulances and the

for the third time. with swelling hopes
and firm resolution, the Army of the

Position of Lees Army.
When Gen. Lee was informed that
the Army of the Potomac was across
the Rapidan and well into the Wilder
ness, he had Hills Corps posted to the
left or west of Orange Court House to
watch any attempt of the Army of the
Potomac to pass his left flank. Ewells
Corps was to the right or east of Orange
Court House, with his right flank rest
ing on the works which had been
thrown up along Mine Run in the pre-
vious December. Longstreet's Corps was

PEARY'S FLAG.
At Last We Know What the Bastard
Flag Is Like Which Peary Claims to
Have Nailed TO the North Pole

How do you like its looks, with
patches cut from 'ts blue and from its
stripes OF red and white and half the
stars obliterated by a strip of white,
which extends from the upper left
hand corner to the lower right-hand
corner of the banner?
This mutilated emblem of the great
est country on earth is pretty much all
OF the decoration of one of the great
magazines of the day, and that's not
the worst of it. Some one has written
a poem on this mutilated Flag, and it
takes up whole page in the front
part of the same magazine, with two
pictures of the mutilated Flag to ac-
company it. To do exact justice to the
poem it is really beautiful thing, and
it is million pities that it should have
been written to accompany one of the
Saddest examples of deliberate mutila-
ton of the Flag known in all history.
Mr.. Peary says that this is the Flag
which he nailed to the North Pole.
Suppose for moment that this Flag
should become encased in a block of
ice which in time should become an
iceberg and float about in the north
seas for ages and ages and then some
time in the course of 40 or so CEN
turies shall be found by some one after
the berg has fioated into warmer wa
ters and melted SO that the Flag may
be seen.

The Markets.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET,
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, JAN Ga shrinkage in the
dealings in stocks today accompanied the
quoting of the turmoil in which the mar
ket has moved this week. The early mar
ket reflected some remaining unsettle-
ment and there was some recurrence at
the last. Rock Island was watched close
ly as a possible further disturbing factor
and its weak decline started the general
vance in sympathy. The action of the
market demonstrated at that point that
the urgency of the liquida ton had passed
ana the professional operators cover their
short contracts and took the long side for
turn. The manner in which the activi-
" died out on the recovery indicated
lack of conviction in the buving and left
sentiment uncertain. The hesitation was
partly due to report afterwards cor
rected that the presentation of the Pres
ident'S special message to Congress would
be delayed until Monday, owing to the
adjournment of the Senate from today
until that date. The distribution of the
advance copies of the message brought
into Wall Street offices the usual inklng
of its contents. The knowledge thus Sc
cured brought with it professions of con-
fidence that the effect of the reading of
the full message would prove reassuring
to corporation and capital interests which
had been apprehensive of the treatment
of anti-corporation policies to be found
there. The prospect of further suspense
until Monday. while rumors and discus
sion of the contents of the message might
continue, was not relished apparently by
the speculative element.
