Catarrh, is not merely an inflammation of the "tissues of the head and
' throat, as the symptoms of ringing- noises in the ears, mucous dropping back
Into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., would seem to indi
cate; it is a blood disease in which the entire circulation and the greater
. part of the system are involved. Catarrh is due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid in the blood. The Liver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull in their action and instead of carrying off the refuse
and waste of the body, leave it to sour and form uric acid in the system.
This is taken up by the blood and through its circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities in the blood irritate and inflame
the different membranes and tissues of the body, and the contracting
-ol a cold will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all parts of the body the ca
tarrhal poison affects all parts of the system. The head has a tight, full
''feeling, nose continually stopped up, pains above the eyes, slight fever
'Comes and goes, the stomach is upset and the entire system disordered and
I had Catarrh for about fifteen
iTears, and no man could have
been worse. I tried everything1
-II oould hear of, but no good re
sulted. I then beg an S. S. S., and
I could see a little improvement
from the first bottle, and after
akine- it a. abort while was cured.

To see a furnace standing round.
So innocent and free of care.
So quiet, modest and serene
And with an almost childlike air,
You never would believe it had
So powerful an appetite
That it could lunch along all day
And fairly eat up coal at night.
The gentleman who put it there
No doubt expressive things would say
Could he but see the way it worked
To make the coal pile fade away.
When he was putting in the joints
And deftly fixing up the flue
He solemnly declared that it
Would only burn a ton or two.
No matter if the coal should last
Or if the wintry winds should roar.
The furnace, he declared, would not
Lift iip its voice and call for more.
No; as the weather colder grew
It was his most alluring guess
That it would gladly make things warm
And bright by burning even less.
A theory is a- cheerful thing,
But practice knocks it galley west
And makes it look like thirty cents
When put severely to the test,
And as you shovel in the coal
And forty times the fire renew
You pause between the strokes and
watch '
Your bank account go up the flue.

Oiling Africa.
Mr. Rockefeller has transferred a
part of his capacious affections to the
Kongo Free State, projecting therein
the Standard Oil company presumably
for the purpose of carrying the light
into darkest Africa.
By some of the tricks of the" trade
with which the oil crowd is familiar
they have wrested the concessions in
that land from Leopold and are about
to demonstrate that the American ace
beats the European king.
That should be an ideal land for the
great American octopus to stretch his
limbs and feed unaff righted from the
best in' the land. There are no legisla
tures to pass harsh and annoying laws,
no grand juries to stir up the dead
past, and the muck raker would not
last over twenty minutes in that cli
mate. Still, at Mr. Rockefeller's age it
might be hard for him to get used to
something entirely different.
Most Clever.
"That woman is very clever. She al
ways knows how to make a sharp re

"What's her specialty?"
"She always knows how not to make
one."
Undoubtedly.
"Talk about beauty!" sniffed Miss
Prim. "It usually conceals a lot of

"But think how much more agreeable

Aping Royalty.
"What .were the thirteen 'original
American colonies?"
"Is the American colony In Paris
one?"
"Hardly. That isn't original. It Is
