Mr. Teters that we first learn of the famous Incursion of the Windham frogs. But It was In the early jurisprudence of Connecticut that this expatriate made his most interesting discoveries. He Informed bls English readers—and most of them believe the story devoutly to this day—that the citizens of the state were forbidden by law to make mince pies, to play on any Instrument of music except the drum, trumpet or jewsharp, and that every male must have his hat cut round, "according to a cap,” the model preferably being the hard shell of a pumpkin.— Leslie’s Monthly.

Catarrh Cannot be Cured With local applications as th<»y cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood or constitutional dis ease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and mucus surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was prescribedby one of the best phvsicians in this country for years, and is a regular prescription. It is composed of the Ixsst tonics known, combined with the best blood purifiers, acting directly on the mucus surfaces. The perfect combination of the two ingredients is what produces such wonderful results in curing catarrh. Send for testimonials free. F. J. Cheney & Co. Props., Toltnlo, O.
