Curing Catarrh is
A Simple Method
Go to It's Source and the
Cure Is Then Ac-
complished.

Only those who have used S. S. S.
for the blood know that catarrh is SIM
ply blood trouble.
Most people, uninstructed in this mem
braneous disease treat their nose and
throat as if catarrh was a local trouble.
Tt is not so. To treat catarrh it is nee
essary to go into the stomach. the liver,
the lungs. the kidneys and all the vital
organs of the body. And it is S. S. S.
that at once enters the entire blood cir
culation, all the organs of the body. all
the mucous surfaces and becomes a
dominant factor for renewed health 1t
is a simple method when you figure it
out. Cctarrh is plainly inf1amma-
ton of the mucous membranes
And there is in s. S. S. certain ingre-
dients which cause these mucous sur
faces to change or convert their secre-
lions into a substance for easy elm
ination. A special book on this subject
will be mailed to all who write to The
Swift Specific Co. 10 Swift Bldg, At
1anta, Ga.
Catarrh is very often the result of
some other blood trouble, some germ
that gets into the blood and multiples
beyond the control of nature.
S. s. S. is the remdy. Do not accept
a substitute for this matchless remedy
Read the circular wrapped around the
bottle. 1t is important,

Ny DEAR BARABOo News.
Mrs. Ringing says that my "recol-
lections of the early circus days, are
certainly incorrect" Well; l will not
contradict the lady; but the "recolIec-
tons" that | do recollect are certainly
correct | will not deny that may be
in error in some minor particulars; but
the main statements | have made in
this matter will stand.
First: as to primary and collegiate
schools, may possibly be mistaken as
to the attendance of any of the Ring
ling children at the Baraboo Collegiate
Institute: but think my recollection of
their attendance in the primary de-
partment of the Baraboo public school
is correct.
Second: as to the date of their first
circus this is immaterial; they were
evidently playing circus from their
early school days; will admit that
their first circus was in 1884. That
was undoubtedly the date on which
they commenced the show business as q
regular occupation. But the boys GER
tainly played circus about Baraboo long
before the Civil war. I distinctly re-
member their circus ground, just east
of my old home in Baraboo, where
lived until the year 1853. And | certain
ly remember seeing the boys going to
and from their rehearsals and perform
ances there, on Saturdays, when the
weather was fine, while | lived there.
Whether their performances in that
line in those early days were real, or
only play circuses, does not dispr0ve
any statement of mine. 1t goes to show
| that they were in the circus business
