CATARRH MUST
BE CURED!

The most common mistake made in
the treatment of Catarrh is in direct
ing all effort toward the symptoms.
rather than the source of the disease.
The Inflammation of the membranes
in the nose and air passages causing
the head to become stopped up, and
making it difficult to breathe, is but
an indication of the disease In other
words, this is not the disease itself.
but natures method of informing the
victim that he has been attacked.
You may treat Catarrh all your life
with sprays, atomizers, douches and
similar local applications, and you will
never be really rid of the disease.
The burning question, then, is How
Can Get Rid Of Catarrh?" You have
doubtless used numbers of local rem
edies, and like every other sufferer :.
you have found out that they are moth
ing but makeshifts and do you no per
manent good. S S. S. has proven
highly successful in the treatment Of
Catarrh because the real seat of the
disease is in the blood, and there is
no disorder of the blood which does
not promptly yield to this great vege-
table remedy.
S. S. S. goes direct to the seat Of
the disease, and routs out from the
blood every vestige of impurity. No
disorder of the blood can remain in
competition with s. S. 8. 9 It simply
eradicates and eliminates every germ
of Catarrh from the blood, after
which the irritated mucous mem
branes promptly heal and the sufferer
once more enjoys perfect freedom
from this annoying disease. -

VISITORS ARE WELCOME
 AT ISLAND FORTS.
Limited Number Will Be Allowed to
 Go There at Various Times.

Norwich's Coast artillerymen are pleasantly located at Fort H. G. Wright and Fort Terry and with the other l members of the corps are rapidly adapting themselves to the details of camp life.
 Col. Henry S. Dorsey the command ing officer of the, Coast artillery. is at Fort Wright. When the soldiers ar lived there Saturday they set up their tents and strengthened things out to the satisfaction of the officers. Then they were allowed to- rest and spend the remainder of the day as they pleased. Most of them were tired and also affected by the impressive send offs which they received. Most of them went to bed very early, but they did not sleep much, as there were few live ones about who started things. The playing of musical instrumen ts and the singing of songs kept the eyes of many open until a late hour. Sun day morning the men were up early, washed up and had their breakfast. After cleaning things up about 90 per cent. attended divine service. In the afternoon baseball games were played. At 3.30 o'clock Sunday afternoon the ball playing came to an end and a band concert was given.
 Colonel Dorsey is aware of the fact that the men are anxious to see their friends and relatives, so he has de- cided that a limited mum Der of the families of the officers and the en-
 
 forts at various times. Every visitor must have a pass and these can be obtained through the officers of the regiment after the approval of the commanding officer. These passes will only allow persons near the fort when they are transported on the govern ment reservation boats. Owing to the limited capacity of the boats, all the people cannot come on the same day or same boat, or leave at the same time
 The artiI1erymen now at the forts will not be assigned to post duty until after they are mustered in. Then there will be no difference in the regular troops at these places and the Con- necticut men.
 Colonel Dorsey's headquarters at Fort Wright is not in the camp He has his office in the headquarters building. His staff is also employed in this building. where every move ment in the future will be directed The colonel and his staff are living in the quarters along the officers line They have a very pleasing home and it is equipped with every modern con Venience. The only thing that they need at present is cook. The house is situated in such a position that they have full view of the sound.
 The officers will be given lessons in the French language as soon as pcs s1b1e. These will be given by Lieut. Camille .Mazean of the Fourth com pany of Bridgeport who will consume one hour of the day. A regular course will be planned.
