one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
Influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con-

Although I've never fired shell
To kill savage foe
I've never fought an Austrian:

I've never erawled, as do the French,
Across bloody plain
And grimly fought, from trench to

Midst misery and pain.
o no, I've ever lead a charge
Some hostile fort to take
But have fought mosquitoes
On the shores of Great Salt Lake.
They come in companies and platoons,
In regiments, without number
They sing their everlasting tunes,
And will not let me slumber;
They fit about, from place to place,
They gambol in my hair,
Then march in squads across my face
And sting me everywhere
Their bills are straight and sharp and
long,
And when they've showed them in,
They pull them ont and sing their song
Then shove them in again.
Yes, War is HELL, know it we'll;
For It's for Old Glory's sake
That have to fight mosquitoes
On the shores Of Great Salt Lake.

Americas great gain of gold, which
has grown with almost every month for
two and one half years, has ceased.
Gold importations have stopped alto
gether, and the flow has begun the
other way, with indication that it will
continue in comparatively small vol
ume for some time. The turning of
the tide comes at time when the
country apparently faces the greatest
industrial period of its history--great-
er, officials believe, than the last twelve
months, which witnessed the establish
ment of a 50, 600, 900, 600 record for
American exports.
Cessation of gold imports to settle
trade balances when trade balances are
heavier than ever before against for
eign buyers is virtually a novelty in
American finance. On the whole it is
regarded as a healthy development. as
further accretions might tend toward
iahation. All foreign purchases will
be paid for, of course, but in differ
ent form, the payment being made by
money furnished the buyers Of the
United States and obtained by the flo
tation of bond issues. With the estab-
lishment of these credits, it is explain,
ed, the entente governments, who have
bought the bulk of American exports,
have found it unnecessary to continue
sending gold to settle trade balances,
They will send their bonds instead, to
secure the credits advanced them.
Neutral nations will continue to
settle their balances largely with gold.
Neutrals having trade balances against
the United States, officials believe, will
call for settlement by the export of
& ! J from this country.
