Cure Of Catarrh.

a few years ago we considered that
We We're doing we'll il we cured ten per
cent. Of the cases eff catarrh brought
To Us. but since the introduction of
'RlooGine" into our hospital we cure
more than 90 per cent. of all the cases
of Catarrh in it's various forms brought
to us. Catarrh of the Head, Catarrh
of the Eyes. Catarrh of the Bladder
and Cretha Catarrh of the large in
testines, Catarrh of the Larynx, Pelvic
Catarrh Catarrh of the Throat, and
Catarrh of the Stomach are quickly
cured with 'Bloodine.' 1t builds new
tissues gives new energy, new life,
new blood and strength to any part OF
the body attacked by the Catarrhal
germs"
Bloodne is a powerful tonic, nour-
ishing food medicine, composed of
valuable tonic stimulants obtained
from vegetable drugs. "Bloodine"
contains no narcotics or other danger
Gus drugs which merely deaden pain
temporarily, but give no permanent
relief or cure the cause of your dis
case. "Bloodine" is(a powerful body
builder and blood maker; it is the best
remedy known to the medical pro-
fession to enrich thin, watery blood and
supply new, rich red blood to the
whole body.

merits of BLOODINE we will mail {

JOHN DOE IS A
VERY BAD MAN
HE MUST ANSWER BEFORE JUS
TICE JOHN FOR MANY OF
FENSES.

Poor John Doe has made himself
ii very bad name the past three days.
John is the man who murdered his
fathers wlfe's uncle; who cut the
throat Of the hired man. killed the
goose that would not lay eggs that
are golden; hit his wife over the eye
with the poker and kicked the butch
er who presented his bill at the
wrong time. This In only a few OF
the many wicked things that John
Doe had done. Little affairs Ike
firing cannon crackers under the feet
of the lady next door. who Is learn
ing TO play the violin. or blowing
smoke in the face of his mother-in-
law are also charged against John
Doe.
Strictly speaking. the aforesaid
Doe is the meanest man in Rich
mond. He is the seapegoat of the
earth: the one who wears all the
sins in the category Because there
were go many poor chaps who under
took to put kichmond dry, under the
as fast as the hr.Dzer's appetite there
were numerous charges against john
Doe, for that is the name of the man
who has to appear on the police
docket when the man arrested IS too
drunk to know his own name. There
were many such the past few days.

MAY PASS LAW
AGAINST FIREWORKS

There Was considerable discussio n

Virginia, except under the most re-
stricted police regulation for occa-
sions of Il public nature. where these
fireworks are In the hands of men
who understand them and can be held
responsible for their proper use.
Aside from the mere danger Of fire
and injury to the users there was a

police were kept on the run all dav
watching corners where there Was
sickness aud where the use of fire
works was extremely annoying 10 the

Back of II all there Is no possible
reason why disturbing noises should
be held to be entertaining. Just why
the beautiful Christmas season should
be made the occasion for burned
hands. fingers. and faces. to say moth
ing of fires fights and discord has
never been discovered
That some action will be taken in
this mater is more than a mere pos
sibiiity. From the results of yester-
day bill IS already being considered
which will probably take form before

him and his companions to ceie-

in front OF the Bemiss home, despite
the fact that the chief was bent on

Chief Werner was so moved by the
boyish personal appeal that he
readily granted the request.
