Sniffler Chased
Out of Meeting
Enraged Audience Roughly Handles
Gaqqer Who Interrupts Speech.

Gagger Who Interrupts Speech.
San Antonio. Tex, Sept. 1s.-During
a public primary meeting here today
a niddle-aged man n the audience who
was fumbling a rolled-up handkerchief
in his hand and persistently smiling
and pulling his nose during the de-
livery of a speech, was forcibly elected
from the assembly hall. Cries Of Kick
him out" and "Chone the lobster in
terrupted the proceedings, and finally
resulted in grand rush for the nose
puller by some Of the enraged hearers.
He was grabbed by the coat collar and
unceremoniously and swiftly. moved
toward the door.
When the man first sat down and
began loudly tearing a throat-hawk, the
audience shifted nervously. After COM
tinuing the draw-rattle of his catarrh
through one speech the audience gave
vent to it's feelings. He was roughly
handled on the way out and sustained
several severe bruises. He was taken
to the county hospital.
II Is such occurrences as these which
make the catarrh victim une o. the
despised Of his race. He can't help
hut show his disease. If this man had
simply spent few moments time to
send to G. E. Gauss for a package Of
the wonderful Canes Catarrh Treat
rnent. he never would have suffered
such an indignity as being kicked out
Of a public meeting.

Eminent Doctor
Says Blindness
Due to Catarrh

London, Aug. Cdr. II. Manning
Fish of Joliet, H., declared at the med
ical congress that most Of the blind
ness in the world is the result OF ca
tarrh in the upper nasal cavities or the
bony cells composing the roof OF the
Dostrils.
DR.. Fish described his experience in
thirty-si cases, covering a period OF
several years claiming that in each OF
these, immediate improvement of the
vision followed the effective treatment
of the diseased nasal cavities, and ad-
vised that in cases Of loss OF vision
following grip, measles, scarlet fever
and kindred ailments, relief be sought
through treatment of the noses of the
patients.
Catarrh is caused by germ which
must be destroyed before the catarrh
itsef. can be cured. II not cured, blind
ness may result. An extended history
Of the many extraordinary cures eff
fected by the Gauss treatment VIII
