SlO6 Reward, S100

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. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment,
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous
Surfaces of the System thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting ma
ture in doing it's work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in the curative
power of Halls Catarrh Cure that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

Laurel Like Resort.

Crowds from Baltimore celebrated
Old Defenders Day sacred to the men,
DRY of the defenders of Baltimore by
visiting the camp of the Fourth Regi-
ment, the present-day defenders. The
indications that the regiment would be
at Laurel for fully two weeks longer
took many there who could not wait
that long to see the soldiers back from
the Mexican border.
The promotion of Lieut.. Edward G.
Waddill to the rank of captain was re
ceived with satisfaction by the mem
bers of the MARYLAND Guard, who have
appreciated the work of this regular
army officer assigned to help them with
their problem of many kinds.
More supplies continue to arrive for
the regiment The latest consignment
includes what was used at Camp Ord.
The regiment moved off in haste, the
supply wagons and some other impedi-
ments being loaded on later freight
train.
Many officers in spite of the favor
able outlook for the present negotia-
lions with Mexico think it likely that
the National Guard will be back along
the border within year. Some Of
them would rather enjoy winter cam
paign in Mexico. The stay at Laurel,
however, is irksome to officers and meE
alike
