Here Is a Sensible Treatment
That Gives Prompt
Results.

Winter and Catarrh are
companions in evil. Catarrh is
sweeping civilization from one
continent to another, just be-
cause civilization does not heed
Natures simple laws. Nature
tells us what to do and we pay
no heed.
Don't think lightly of Ca
tarrh. Do not make the mis-
take of believing that it is mere
7y an aggravated bad cold.
True, this trouble usually starts
with what is apparently a cold
in the head, but beware of any
cold that "hangs on" You
may as we'll realize at the out
set that Catarrh is a serious dis
ease and one that should not be
trifed with. In fact, in many
instances it is a forerunner of
the most dreaded of all dis
eases-consumption.
Don't permit yourself to be
deceived. Perhaps, like thou
sands of others afflicted with
catarrh, you are about ready to
believe that the disease is incur
able, and that you are doomed
to spend the remainder of your
days hawking and splitting,
with no relief in sight from in
famed and stopped-up air pass
ages that make the days miser-
able and the nights sleepless.
If you are in the grasp of Ca
tarrh, your experience should
convince you that the disease is
beyond the reach of sprays,
douches, jellies, balms, salves
and other locally applied rene
dies.
When the air passages be-
come so stopped up that every

decorations glittering on their TUNES,

the well-gowned women in costly,
fashionable furs and jewelry, leave
nothing to those who enjoyed life
here before the war. They are every
whit as chic" as gay and as up-to-

The Smartcst Cafe.
Strange to relate, Vienna's smartest,
dearest and most sought-after cafe
was opened during the war. The Cafe
Krantz is the last word in luxury and
attractiveness. Money has been law
ished on its decorations, and its music
is supplied by the orchestra of the
Nolks opera, conducted by the popular
violinist and composer, Willy Klein
Der Here idlers sip chocolate made
with water at so cents a small cup, eat
small cakes of whitest flour at 70
cents each, flirt, chat and listen to
good music as you can enjoy any
where in the world.
Each seat at one of the little round
tables costs IL cents on ordinary days,
but on holidays, such as New Years
eve, you cannot get inside the place
under 60 cents. while the best seats,
which are in the gallery upstairs,
overlooking the big hall. where the
music is, and the main part of the
cafe, cost 81. Every seat is taken,
every occupant happy, careless and
absorbed merely in pleasure.
The same crowd is to be seen at
Pucher's tea room. opened a year ago,
with brocade hung walls and discreet
corners. Here a cracker costs so
cents and a cup of chocolate so cents,
while a portion of imitation tea, with
out sugar or milk, can be had for so
cents. The crowd here is as well
dressed as cheerful and as Indifferent
to the Versailles conference as that
in the Cafe Krantz
The Atlantis, another magnificent
