There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven Catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. j.. Cheney &
Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitu-
tional cure ON the maraket. 1t is taken
internally. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.

Chairman Padgett then boiled over
and told Benson that he was asked to
discuss the subject Of preparedness
and not to impugn the motives of the
President. To which Benson retorted.
"A prominent Democratic member of
