There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than ali other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a consti-
tutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only cohstitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case il
fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi-
monials. Address:

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
BY w. A. MACY.
DANIEL 5ooNE's LAST DAYS.

The last days Of Daniel Boone
were full Of trouble. After all
his work In exploring, settling
and defending the region now
known as Kentucky, he was not
permitted to settle down quietly
and spend the evening Of his
tempestuous life In peace. Ow-
Ing to the Imperfect land laws of
the state the title to the farm
he had chosen was declared de-
fectlVe by the courts and others
got the land. At one time he
was lntrusted with a large sum
Of money to buy land for some
friends, and was robbed of the
whole Other troubles came I'D
on him and he became dIscour-
aged and d'sgusted with tho
ways Of civilization. He emil
grated from the land he had
conquered from the Indians, and
sought a new home beyond the
Mississippi. He located at a
point about forty-fiVe miles west
Of the present site Of ST. Louis,
the country now known as Mis-
souri, being at that time within
the Spanish domain. The other
settlers there were kind to him,
and gave him a considerable
tract Of land. When the Amer
lean government took possession
OF that territory, II generously
allowed him to keep one-tenth
Of the land that had been given
him and was rlghtfuIIy his.
Though past eighty, he spent
most Of his time In hunting and
trapping, and saved up the
money he received for peIts.
With this he went back to hIs
old homo In Kentucky and set
tied up some old debts he had
left behind him, paying each
man whatever he demanded.
Tradition has II that he returned
to Missouri with just fifty cents
In his pocket. He died Septem-
Der &c, 1920, In his elqhty-sev-
enth year. Twenty-Five years
after his ashes were removed to
Frankfort, KY, and re-Interred
with great honors.
