The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity
Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn, thereby destroying the founda-
tion of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in it's curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
far any case that it fails to cure. Send
for list of testimonials.

THE BETTER WAY"

One of the saddest, and yet
most sacred duties that mankind
is called upon to discharge is to
decide upon the final disposition
of the bodies of their loved ones.
There are three methods only that
are provided, viz: Earth burial,
cremation and mausoleum en-
tombment. People everywhere
are shrinking from the thought of
consigning the bodies of their
dear ones to the cold, wet and
unfriendly grave.
Cremation, while acknowledged
by all to be sanitary, is against
the higher sentiment of the soul,
and few people can be educated
in its favor.
The Mausoleum movement is
consequently welcomed by nearly
every one who gives it serious
thought. Long before the Chris
tian era it was the popular
method of entombment.
Earth burial was almost un-
known to the ancients. The
bodies of nearly all Christian eel
ebrities from that of the pauper
Lazarus to Jesus Himself, were
placed, not in graves, but in
tombs.
Every President of the United
States from Washington down to
the present day, who has passed
away, has found entombment
most fittingly in a Mausoleum.
In the past it was only posi-
BILE for the rich and distinguished
to receive this method of burial,
but with the advent of Com
munity Mausoleums,' - this method
is made possible to all. Surely
the placing of the body of a dear
one in a dry, sanitary crypt in
building built to endure for cen
turies. has much to do in lessen
ing the sorrows and heartaches of
tnOSe grleVlng IOr the loss OF tne
loved ones whom the Master has
called.
There are a few choice crypts
yet to be taken in the Mausoleum
at Fort Meigs cemetery, Perrys-
burg.
The Mausoleum is open on
pleasant Sundays from 2 to 5 or
any day in the week by appoint
ment and visitors are cordially
welcomed.

What Would You Do?

There are many times when one
man questions another's actions and
motives. Men act differently under
different circumstances. The question
is, what would you do right now if
you had severe cold? Could you do
better than to take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy? 1t is highly recon-
mended by people who have used it
for years and know it's value. Mrs.

The Journal calls attention to
the announcement of Judge Kin
kade for second term as Judge
of the Court of Appeals. Judge
Kinkade is one of the peoples
strongest representatives and his
fair and fearless manner of treat
ing all matters that come to his
official notice; his deep knowledge
of the law and the all-important
fact that he knows no favorites
and serves no masters, makes him
doubly worthy the votes of the
people for a second term.

TRYING To CURE AN
UPSIDE DOWN" YOUTH
Physicians Interested In PeCuI-
lar Case Of Detroit Boy.

Detroit, Mich. - Physicians through
the experiments which are to be made
to try to cure Joseph w. Darling of
this city. The boy is suffering from
an unusual malady which results in his
writing and drawing everything up
side down. Everything reverses itself
to his vision, and it is believed that n
surgical operation will be able to rem
edy the ailment.
The leading physicians of the city
are taking a great interest in the boy,
and several schemes are being worked
out in the hope of bettering the boy 5
sight and making his vision in every
way normal. Dr. w. =. Melody, city
physician, is convinced that the all
ment comes from lesion of the brain
as Il result of an accident, and the boy
is to be treated by him first to give
him an opportunity to disprove or sub
stantiate that theory.
Joseph is a remarkably intelligent
boy. He is nine years old. but his
physical development is that of boy
of four. as he has spent months at a
time in various hospitals following an
accident which affected his sight and
ruined his health. This happened when
he was two and half years old. He
was lifted from the floor by his head
by caller at his home and so injured
that his neck and spine became prac-
tically useless Assesses formed at
either side Of his neck, and his spine
finally developed Il bad curvature.
The boy was treated 1T local hos
pital for nearly Il year following the
mishap, and as in that time he did not
have one sound sleep because of his
pain, the physicians were assured that
he could not live and had him taken
to his home to die.
1t was not until Joseph was well
enough to go to school that it was
found that his sight was affected. He
was an apt pupil, but his teachers sent
word to Mrs. Webb that he insisted
upon fooIing at his work and did ev-
erything upside down. He protested
that he was doing the best that he
could and insisted that he never had
written or drawn anything upside
down since he had been at the school.
They asked him then if he knew what
upside down meant. He said yes and
Immediately drew a picture as it
should be. right side up.
That" said he. us upside down.
and never do my work that way.
Continued surveillance convinced his
teachers that the boy was suffering
with some defect of vision. and since
that time he has been examined by al
most all Of the physicians in Detroit.
