It is infrequently true that a groat popular success meets with a practically unanimous word of approval from professional critics, but public and press, in the matter of Mr. Ade's play seem ' in perfect accord, "The College Widow" comes to the Academy on Prlday, March 1st, with strong cast, a new production, and the perfection of detail that characterizes all the efforts of Henry W. 8avage.

Catarrh is usually worse in Winter, because of the cold, damp and suddenly changing climate. Colds are contracted, and neglected and as the secretions from the dinerent inflamed membranes are absorbed into the blood I the unpleasant symptoms of the disease commence. The nostrils are i stopped up and a constant dropping of mucous back into the throat keeps up a continual hawking and spitting. The patient has dull headaches, I ringing noises in the ears, and often slight fever and a depressed, half-sick feeling accompanies the disease.

Catarrh cannot be cured with washes, sprays, inhalations and such treatment : these cannot reach the poison-laden blood where the real cause is located, and can only give temporary relief and comfort. A disease which affects the entire blood supply as does Catarrh, must be treated with a blood purifier. S. S. 3. is the best remedy for Catarrh, which has grown to be a universal disease. It goes to the bottom of the trouble, rids the blood of the catarrhal matter, reinvigorates the cir culation, and cures this disgusting disease permanently. When S. S.

Nothing else. Nothing easier. Nothing surer. When you say "Give me a Tri angle A cigar,,r you are absolutely as certain of getting quality, and the same quality every time, no matter which particular brand you select, as if you had your cigars made up to order. We nave succeeded in building up a fifteen per cent, share of the entire cigar business of this coun try. In tKe face of the keenest competition, take notice. You know well enough that there's only one way we could have done it : Simply by making better cigars of every grade than any other man ufacturer has produced and telling . the truth about them, - And by making . the strongest definite claims that any cigar man ufacturer ever dared to make, and living up to them, , - The one1 reason why we started If you have been buying your cigars by, guesswork and want to put our claims to a most practical test, just take a new start Begin by smoking One of the best-known of all the brands that are sold under the guarantee of the "Triangle A" in marking our boxes with the "Tri angle A" was to enable you to shut down sharp on the common hit-or-miss way of buying cigars on some body's say-so, and make your selec tion with your eyes open. It would be worth your while to take all sorts of trouble in order to obtain "Triangle A" brands-but , you don't have to botheryou can get them anywhere. It's up to you to ask for them.' Practically every dealer in the United States carries them. Do your part t Give yourself & square deal ! ' This "Triangle A" merit mark identifies the product of the most modern improved methods and scientific processes of cigar pro- duction. and represents a standard of ouality far superior to that which the same price could hereto 4 fore purchase. Compare it fairly with any cigar sold at the same price that carries V no "Triangle A" guarantee: you-won't fail to see why we are so confident ; of your co-operation as soon as you realize just what the "Triangle A" V stands for.v, , -,; ,r,V'Vf--f . r, ;,. - , ; Every box is now extra-wrapped in glasslno ; papexy sealed '; ;' V : ' ' :at each end with the "Triangle A" in red. - The cigars are kept ,rA4VI r AMK1UUAN WUAlt WfllFANy,1 Manufacturer Second term be?lns January 10. 1 907.
