For the relief and cure of the inflammation and congestion called "a cold in the head" there iB more potency in Ely's Cream Balm than in anything else it is possible to prescribe. This preparation has for years past been making a brilliant success as a remedy for coM in the head, catarrh and hay fever. Used in the initial stages of these complaints, Cream Balm prevents any serious development of the symptons, while almost numberless cases are oh record of radical cures of chronic catarrh aud hay fever after all other modes of treatment have proved of no avail.

SECURING A SITUATION. Securing a situation is not an easy matter, especially for those who are strangers in a strange land. Indeed many poor wanderers have been driven to desperation and finally suicide by repeated failure to obtain employment. Of late years the difficulty of securing a situation has been very greatly overcome by the establishment of various employment agencies throughout the country. The Commercial Employment association, which established an office in this city a few days since at GG5 Main street, is perhaps the mosfpractical one of the kind now before the public. They have a graduated scale of fees proportioned to the kind of business which they secure for the applicant. They also give the applicant use of the office for a term of days during the pending of the effort to procure a situation, and they refund one-half of the fee at the end of thirty days provided they cannot procure a satisfactory place for the seeker, the balance, of course, goes toward defraying advertising and canvassing expenses. They do not retain on their books longer than 30 days the names of

any

party who will not be ac

cepted by an employer, hence securing only reliable help. Indeed, the entire modus operando of the "association is based upon a very comprehensive system, and has proven entirely successful in the various cities where established. They have branches in Chicago, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Grand Rapids and a number of other large cities. The founder of this unique employment association is Mr. F. F. Davis, who spent much time in devising its "workings."
