All Stuffed Up That’s the condition of many sufferers from catarrh, especially in the morning. Great difficulty is experienced in clear* ing the head and throat. No wonder catarrh causes headache, impairs the taste, smell and hearing, pollutes the breath, deranges tbt stomach and affects the appetite. To cure catarrh, treatment must be constitutional—alterative and tonic. •‘I was afflicted with catarrh. I took medicines of different kinds, .giving each s fair trial; but gradually grew worse until I could hardly hear, taste or smell. I then concluded to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and after taking five bottles I was cured and have not had any return of the disease since.” Eugene Fokbes, Lebanon, Kan. Hood's Sarsaparilla Cures catarrh —it soothes and strengthens the mucous membrane and builds up the whole system.

Merritt Strain, of Fair Oaks, was the winner of a road wagon; Rev. John Goendling, of Peru, won an overcoat, and Lewis Arnold secured the laprohe. The gross receipts of the fair amounted to $2002 25. The net proceeds were about SI7OO. The Pennsylvania has issued an order that its Imploves must not be engaged in any other business while working for the company. The position of the railroad company is that the time of the employes all belongs to the railroad, and the train service especially if trainmen have outside business cares on their minds are apt to neglect the affairs of the company. The 49th annual session of the Indiana State Teachers’ Association will take place at Indianapolis December 29, 30 and 31.

Great Drainage Ditch.

Preliminary steps are nnder way in the northwestern counties of Indiana, including LaPorte, Starke, Porter, Lake and Jasper, to erect what will probably be the largest artificial waterway of Its kind east of the Mississippi river. When completed it will reclaim hundreds of thousands of acres of Kankakee marsh lands, which are now regarded as worthless. A contract has been let for the first fourteen miles in Laporte and Starke counties for $120,000. Ths ditch will be eighty feet wide and sixteen feet deep. It is the plan of the other counties to continue the great ditch to the Illinois line, a distance of sixty miles. , The total cost will be about a million dollars. The project has been taken up by the owners of large ranches along the Kankakee. The payment is to be made by assessments on benefits derived from the ditch.

Why Have Dyspepsia?

When a quick relief and permanent cure is right at hand at a low price, and very agreeable. Mayor Baumgarten, Freeport, 111., says: “I have used Bailey’s Dyspepsia Tablets and am much benefltted.

Unique Justice.

There is a justice of the peace in one of the suburbs of Hammond, who is decidedly original in his methods o£ legal procedure. The other day a woman was on the witness stand, and in swearing her in, he said "hold up your mitt.” To a bum that was up before him he said, “well, old sport, you’ve been on a bat all right; I think I’ll soak you a few.” Another man was being prosecuted for swearing in the presence of ladies, and our “second Daniel came to judgment” advised him that it would be cheaper to plead guilty than to try to controvert the evidence of the lady witness. — Hammond Tribune.

A Cold Wave.

The forecast of sadden changes in the weather serves notice that a hoarse voice and a heavy cough may invade the sanctity of health in your own home. Cautious people have a bottle of One Minute Gough Cure always at hand. E. H. Wise, Madison, Ga., writes: “I am indebted to One Minute Oough Cure for my present good health, and probably my life.

One Minute Cough Cure outs the phlegm, draws out the inflammation, heals and soothes the mucous membranes and strengthens the Jungs. A. F. Long.

A Million Voices

Could hardly express the thanks of Homer Hall, of West Point, la. Listen why: A severe cold had settled on his lungs, causing a most obstinate cough. Several physicians said he had consumption, but could not help him. When all thought he was doomed he began to use Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption and writes: “It completely cured me and saved my life.
