WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has Catarrh in some form.
Science has shownt that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
If any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott s Emulsion which is
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

Under one pretense or another, rates
have been reduced with the public at
the same time demanding more and
labor more pay, supply houses higher
prices for equipment and material, and
investors a higher rate OF return one
of the most subtle and seductive ex-
cuses for rate reductions has been the
high cost Of living. individuals and
communities have We'd with each other
in the exploitation of public credulity
in this regard
standing out in bold and bald con-
trast is the fact that rate reductions
have not been reflected in the price OF
goods to the consumer, and for the very
evident reason that commodities are
moved very largely in carload lots on
carload rates and consumers do not
buy their clothing. shoes. groceries and
other household necessities by the car
load. which they would have to do to
derive the benefit of rate reductions.
Cost of Freight.
For example. the railroads move an
ordinary hat 1000 miles across the
continent from Massachusetts to the
Pacific coast for less than two cents.

reaches the dealer is such that he finds
