Harmless Smoke
Cures Catarrh.
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way and
It Costs Nothing to Try.

This preparation of herbs, leaves,
flowers and berries containing no to-
bacco or habit-forming drugs) is either
smoked in an ordinary clean pipe or
smoking tube, and by drawing the med
icated smoke into the mouth and inhal-
ing into the lungs or sending it out
through the nostrils in a perfectly nat
ural way, the worst case of Catarrh can
be eradicated.
1t is not unpleasant to use, and at
the same time it is entirely harmless,
and can be used by man, woman or
child.
Just as Catarrh is contracted by
breathing cold or dust and germ-Iaden
air, just so this balmy antiseptic smok-
ing remedy goes to all the affected
parts of the air passages of the head,
nose, throat and lungs. 1t can really
be seen why the ordinary treatments,
such as sprays, ointments, salves, iq-
uid or tablet medicines fail-they do
not and can not reach all the affected
parts.
If you have catarrh of the nose,
throat or lungs, choking, stopped-up
feeling, colds, catarrhal headaches; liz
you are Civ an to hawking and splitting,
this simple yet scientific treatment
should cure you.
An illustrated book which goes thor
oughly into the whole question of the
cause, cure and prevention of catarrh-
will. upon request, be sent you by Dr..
J. w. Blosser, 81 Walton street, At
lanta, Ga
He will, also, mail you five days free
treatment. You will at once see thai
it is a wonderful remedy, and rs IL

Greensboro. n. C.-The forty second
annual session of the grand lodge, Free
and Accepted Masons, of the jurisdic-
ton of North Carolina recently held in
this city was an epoch making event
for American Masons in this sec
ton of the country. Over 800 delegates
were in attendance. They represented
the intellectual and progressive ele-
ment of the race. 1t is the strongest
fraternity in the state. 1t has made
excellent investments, such as North
Carolina bonds, and has over $4,000
in the endowment department.
The well known scholar and capt
talist Professor R. B. McRary, who is
an excellent example for the young of
the race and whose rating places him
among the mOneyed men of the state, is
the most worshipful grand master for
the state Owing to his ability as
financier and business man the order
has never before experienced such
glowing results.
Colonel James IL. Young, the well
rounded business man. is the endow-
ment secretary; DR.. o. :. Brown, the
well known educator. pulpiteer and
public spirited man. is the grand sec
retary. and \. Middleton is the grand
treasurer. These. with w. :. Simmons,
are the grand lodge officials. The re
port of Colonel Young shows that dur
ing the past Masonic year S49,7oO has
been paid to the widows and orphans
and large sum to charitable instjtu-
tions.
The annual address of Professor Nc
Rary was the most mastery effort ever
heard by the grand lodge. He said in
part:
Not only are we making our record on
the pages or history. but We making
the pathway for our successors TO future
and much greater achievements. our

people in n degrading position in the
estimation of the nations Of the world.
