The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all it's stages, and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure known to the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease. requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surface of the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The pro-
prletors have so much faith in it's cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

Recognizing People.

Data have been gathe. ed in Ger
many with reference to the distance
at which persons may be recognized
by their faces and figures. If one
has good eyes, the Germans claim,
one cannot recognize a person whom
he has seen only once at a greater
distance than 50 feet If the person
is well known to one, one may recog-
nize him at 800 feet and if it is a
member of ones family, even at 500
feet.-Scientific American.

Scared to Death by Pet Coon.

A curious case of an old woman be-
ing frightened to death by pet coon
occurred near Greensboro. Ala. a few
nights ago. After she had retired to
her bed, and while there was no light
in the room, the old lady saw an OBJ
ject crawl over the bed toward her.
She slapped 1t and pushed il back,
but 1t came again. The woman then
became frightened and got out of her
bed. when. to her dismay. she dis
covered that the thing was still pur-
suing her. Thinking surely that it
was a haunt" she screamed, and
other people on the place ran to her.
BY the time that any one got there
she was so overcome with fright that
she could scarcely speak. and died
shortly after 1t was learned that the
object that had been following her was
a pet coon.

Taft is Coming South
in Month of September
Nations President Will Visit Appa.
lachian Exposition Monday,
September 10.

President William II. Taft wiz be
one of the many prominent men Of
worldwide fame who will visit the
Appalachian Exposition, in Knoxville,
Tenn, Monday, September IS.
President Taft is vitality interested
In the success Of the Appalachian Elk
position, and to several delegations
he has given his positive assurance
that he will visit the exposition.
Taft Day" on September Is will
be one of the chief features of
the period. The presence of the
President will be the occasion
of many special features. A magnifi-
cent parade, civic and military in char
acter, will pass through the main
streets of Knoxville on that day, and
1t will be headed by and will be sub
sequently reviewed by the President
and his party
In the Exposition Stadium, which
has a seating capacity of $4,000 or
more, President Taft will deliver an
address, in which he will sound his DO
sition upon matters of vital concern
to the government, and perhaps of mo-
ment to the presidential campaign of
1912. This address alone will be well
worth travelling to Knoxville to hear
The opening and development of the
Appalachian forest reserve is a sub
3ect in which President Taft is vitality
interested, and this is largely RESPONSE
bic for his desire to visit Knoxville
and the Appalachian Exposition. The
exposition has been organized and de-
veloped with a view to augmenting
the campaign for reforestation and
the improvement of rivers, which
means so much to the people of the
entire Appalachian region, of which
this section is an important part.
In arranging the program for Taft
Day, Sept. IS, the committee has plan
whereby thousands of visitors will be
privileged to meet the President per-
sonally and shake him by the hand
and have a word Of greeting from him.
He will be introduced by Col. L. d.
Tyson, president of the exposition,
and will be presented by Col. Tyson
to the innumerable true Americans
who will want to felicitate him upon
that occasion. Nothing will be left
undone to the end that it will be a
day of the people and for the people,
with Taft as the one man with whom
all may come in contact, and whom
all may meet, see and hear.

There is more cAtarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurabe. 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 consti-
tutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by f. j. Cheney 4
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only cobstitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to tea

Taking Care Of the Flowers.

One young woman who loves flow

says that she devotes one morning
weekly to washing out the vases with
hot soda water. made very strong
After each vase has stood filed with
this cleansing fluid for fifteen minutes
she goes to work with bristle brushes,
OF which she has a collection. and re-
moves the deposit OF the flower stems
from every nook and corner. Brown
soap and water follow this, and, last
ly. two rinsings in clear water. And
the driving is done with clean glass
towels, followed by a polish with a
chamois skin. The process sounds la
borious. but the result repays all eff
fort. for each piece looks like new.
and the flowers last much longer be-
