Had we not once witnessed a Tex as "norther," or hailstorm, we should doubt the report of the recent storm in Gillispie County, Tex. Hail stones 6 inches in circumference fell, it i3 re ported, in the recent storm. When driven by a fierce, teriffic gale, as they geneially are there, it is about as dan gerous to face them as it is to face so many bullets. In the recent Texas storm cattle were killed, crops and fruit trees ruined, and roofs of houses were broken through. The breath of a chronic catarrh patient is often so offensive that he becomes an object of disgust. After a time ulceration sets in, the spongy bones arc attacked, and frequently destroyed. A constant source of dis comfort is the dripping of the purulent secretions into the throat, sometimes producing inveterate bronchitis, which is usually the exciting cause of pul monary disease. The brilliant results bv its use for years past properly de signate Ely's Cream Balm as by far the best and only cure. Call upon your druggist for it. Children Cryfor Pitcher's Castoria.
