Illustration! are to be seen every day, In all kinds of trades, professions and business pursuits, of the value of educa tion. S It la not merely the technical knowl edge that Is demanded of the manor woman of today, for the technical must have with It the practical, book learning must have added .to it experience to bring forth its needed development. f. V Is the symstematlc training of school and college, which, counts so much, If the student will accept the opportunities presented. : ' It la the knowledge of self.that counts. Inspiration, without the genius for "work, rarely proves of value. Techni cal learning, without the thought of the practical application, and the ability to put into execution, is not of the profita ble kind. Thta age with all its rapid develop ment, 1b not going for ward heedlessly or blindly. Each new Invention has been thought out and worked out, and Is not the crea tion of an hour, but of the forced thought - and effort of days, weeks, years. The present time demands of men and women that they know something, to be of worth to other people, and be of money value, so far as their service are concerned. Every line of business demands a thorough knowledge, if the man or wo man employed Is to be worth money to . the employer. And no line of business Is so well learned, that there remains nothing further to learn. When any business Is known so well, that nothing more remains to be learned, it is a good business to leave, for the world Is progressive, and anything which halts is quickly left behind, In the rush of progress. It Is this knowing and still learning, that makes an employe worth money. And it Is the application of this know ledge to advance the employer's Inter ests, which means an added value to the employe's services. There is no line of business in which men and women may not add to their value as employes, If they seek to do so. It Is to know something, and putting the knowledge Into effect, which meant, for the person so doing a money worth which ever increases.

Douches, sprays, ointments, ' so-called tobacco cures, and various other applications; are diligently used, but the little good accomplished is swept away by the first breath of winter. When you attempt to cure, a constitutional disease one affecting the entire system with: purely local remedies, you are applying the fire to the top of i the pot, you are doctoring symptoms, and, like thousands of " others, get disappointing results. In Chronic Catarrh, the whole system becomes; involved; the entire mucous membrane, or inner covering of the body, is in a -state of high inflamma tion. The pressure of blood upon the glands and cells produce excessive secretion of mucus, much of which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body. In this way the stomach, kidneys aud intestines are often seriously affected. The nose, throat and ears are most frequently attacked by this foul disease, because the mucous lining is exposed to the cold, damp air, which: attracts the vitiated blood to the ohed continually, and the odor of my' becomes parched and dry; the hot, waterv discharge from breath waa aiokenlng-.

Blinding headaches, neuralgia of the eyes and dizziness are also symptoms of this disease, and when the inflammation reaches the delicate mechanism of the ear, hearing is lost, and, as the blood becomes more deeply poisoned, the tissues and soft bones in the head are eaten out, greatly disfiguring the face.
