Miss Mary Roberts resigned her

good wishes of the pupils and

Miss ellison and Miss Collie. This
can be done without giving any

Quickly Relieves Ca

The thousands who suffer the miseries
of cstarrh, and claim they have never
found cure, can get instant relief by
simply amounting the nostrils with Ely's
Cream Balm.
Unlike internal medicines which upset
the stomach. or strong snuffs which on
ly aggravate the trouble, this cleans
ing, healing, antiseptic balm instantly
reaches the seat of the trouble, stops
the nasty discharge, clears the nose,
head and throat, and brings back the
sense of taste, smell and hearing. More
than this, it strengthens the weakened,
diseased tissues, thus protecting you
against return of the trouble.
Nasal catarrh is an Inflammation of
the membrane lining the air passages,
and cannot be reached with mixtures
taken into the stomach or with
snuffs and powders which only cause
additional irritation. Don't waste
time on them. Get fifty cent bottle
of Ely's Cream Balm from your
druggist, and after using it for day
you will wish you had tried it sooner
