The readers OF this paper viii be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure In all its stages, and
that Is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation Of the disease,
and giving the patient strength BY
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith In its
curative powers that they offer one
hundred dollars for any case that 1t
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials. Address

NORTH SALEM HAS

- TTVTI7ITT nv ITVV-TT
A representative of The Journal was
out in North Salem, Highland and
Englewood, yesterday, and It is actu-
ally astonishing to see the number OF
new houses under construction in
those additions, The sound OF the
hammer and saw could be heard on
every hand, and here, as in all parts
of the city, the city is fast building up.
A man made the remark to the repre-
sentative Of The Journal today that he
was along a street where he had not
been for several weeks, and he did not
know the place.
