PROPER TREATMENT FOR
T. A 7 A R r H

The first thing 10 be done in the
treatment of Catarrh is to begin the
use of a medicine that wiu haue a
direct effect on the source of the
disease; in no other way can any
curative progress be made. SIS. S.
does this more quickly and salts
factonly than any other medicine.
1t is the most penetrating of all
blood purifiers, thoroughly yet
gently, expelling all catarrhal mat
ter and impurities from the circuld-
tion, and by its fine tonic properties
Strengthening and building up the
system in such hec'thy manner that
it is enabled to overcome the de-
pressing effects of Catarrh. Some
local treatment is often desired to
open the air passages of the head
and nose and relieve the congestion
and "tickling of the throat, and
other unpleasant symptoms. There
are many helpful measures which
may be resorted to, and there are
others Which may be harmful, and
to aid Catarrh sufferers we have pre-
pared special treatise on the disease
which will be of great value to any
who suffer with this trouble. This

vice free to all who write and request
it. Take S. S. S. regularly and ac-
oording TO directions, and it will Ger
tainly remove the cause and cure your

am to make a speech. The wound
was thought to be slight aud Mr..
Roosevelt went on and delivered
his speech as though nothing had
happened, after he had seen his as
sailsnt arrested and taken to the
police station. The man who would
have killed Colonel Roosevelt SAID
he made the attempt because any
man looking for a third term should
be shot.
After Mr.. Roosevelt delivered
his speech he submitted to an ex.
animation by physicians, but the
bullet, which was fred from a 32
calibre pistol, was not located and
he left at once for Chicago TO have
an Y ray examination made, The
bullet entered his right breast and
would doubtless have killed him
but for bulky manuscript which
he carried IN his pocket and which
served to check the force Of the
shot.
