the thousands.
As compared with last year, the
Christmas business at the postoffice IN
the parcel department shows an in
crease of not less than seventy-av
per cent. This of course. is due to the
fact that the parcel post law did not
go into effect until the first dty OF

than on any other in the year, and

Mr.. j. ID. Jervis only twenty-three
years of age. has had catarrh Of the
head. stomach and Kidneys for the

kept him hawking and splitting out
nasty mucous. His breath was foul,
sometimes his nose was stopped up,
smarting and burning. Finally his
stomach became affected. The food
would sour and ferment, which caused
gases to form. Sour mouthfuls would
belch UP. Sometimes dizziness and
shortness Of breath would follow. as
most railroad men are afflicted with
kidney trouble, and especially when
they have catarrh. He, too. had kid
ney trouble to some extent. But the
worst Of all came last January, when
he was taken down with the grip Tho
aches and pains, as almost every per-
son who has experienced knows, Is to

are really worse than the disease itself,
