three hours later. He gets into such
of his clothes as he can handily find
to come down to breakfast. and he Is
about to find fault with the coffee. the
rolls and all else when he suddenly
thinks Of better thing and observes:
Mrs. Bowser. 1 shall go to church
this morning."
Mrs. Bowser turns pale. The bolt
strikes home. She knows what his
getting ready for church entails. She
has been through the program. She
makes no reply, however, and at the
end of ten minutes Mr.. Bowser guesses
he won't go after all.
Mrs. Bowser fetches a sigh of re-
lief and says she has a headache and
will remain at home with him. The
words have hardly been spoken when
he says:

DEATHS DOOR
Is Entered by Dog, Assisted
by Two Shots from
Revolver.

Much unnecessary commotion and
excitement occurred on Maude street
lin front of house No. 119 Wednesday
afternoon over the passing Of a dog
to the great beyond OF dogdom. The
dog had evidently been poisoned, and
as he lay writhing in the street a
large crowd collected fearing the
dog was mad.
Lieutenant Nicholas Whyte, of the
city police force, was at last sum
moned and despatched the dog, using
only two shots from his trusty re-
volver to assist the animal through
deaths door. Medical examination
by the crematory physician re-
yealed the fact that the dog
was already dead when shot, having
been scared to death by sight OF the
approaching officer with his weapon.

CURING CATARRH.
Accept Our Advice and Try This
Remedy at Our Risk.

Catarrh is disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane
is. one may say. the interior lining Of
the body Catarrh therefore may exist
in any part of the system.
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, Inflammation
and congestion are produced and nature
fails TO throw of the accumulated pol
sons. The organ which has been af-
llic;ed ceases To perform its proper
function as nature intended it should.
The result is, complication upon com
plication, which may lead to other even
more serious Affections.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu-
Tone will do wonders toward over
coming catarrh. 1t is made from the
prescription of an eminent physician
who made long study of catarrh, and
his great success with this remedy was
an enyiable one.
We want you if You are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give Rex
all Mucu-Tone thorough trial Use
it with regularity and persistency for a
reasonable time, then if you are not
satisfied, come back and tell us, and
without question or formality we will
hand back to you every cent you paid
us. This is certainly the fairest offer
that any one could make and should at
test our sincerity ofpurpose. 1t comes
in two sizes, prices 80 cents and Sl.OO.
Remember you can obtain it only at
The Rexa!l store. Grant Holden.
