ever receiving a scratch he ran from
the Buffalo bhd and lost the fight,
l-'oi- the second buttle Buffalo had an
other blue-red and the Washlngton
luns brought fonvatd a dun-colored

and won qui in ten minutes. Two
brown-reds were pitted against each
oilier for the third battle, whluh wus

bird's handler picked up his charge
and his opponent cried foul, claiming

DOES NOT DISAPfOINT.
The New Discovery for Catarrh
Seems to Possess Remarkable
Merit.
A now catarrh cure has recently np
peared which so far us tested has been
remarkably successful In curing all
forms of catarrh, whether In the head,
throat, bronchial tubes, or In stomach
and liver.
The remedy Is In tablet form, pleas
ant nnd convenient to take and no
special secrecy Is maintained as to
what It contains, the tablet being a
scientific combination of Gualacol, Eu
calyptol, Snngnhiarlu, llydrustln nnd
similar valuable and harmless anti
septics. Tho safe and effective catarrh cur
nmy be found at any drug store under
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the catarrh ls located in
the nose, throat, bronchial tubes or
stomach, the tablets seem to act with
equal success, temovlng the stuffy
feeling In head nnd nose, clearing the
mucous membrane of tin oat and tra
chea from catarrhal secretions, which
cause the tickling, coughing, hawking
and gagging so annoying to every ca
tarrh sufferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ul
ceration, in some cases to such an
extent as to destroy the nose entirely
und In many old cases of catarrh tho
bones of tho head become diseased.
Nasal catarrh gradually extends to the
throat and bronchial tubes and very
otten to the stomach, causing that very
obstinate trouble, catarrh of tho stom
ach. Catarrh is a systemic poison, inher
ent in tho blood, and local washes,
douches, salves, inhaters and sprays
can have no effect on the real cause of
the disease. An internal remedy which
acts upon the blood is the only rationnl
treatment and Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
Is the safest of all internal remedies,
as welt as the most convenient nnd sat
isfactory from a medical standpoint.
Dr. Eiiton recently stated that lie ifad
successfully used Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets In old chronic cases, even
where ulceration had extended so far
as to destroy the septum of the nose.
He says, "I am pleasantly surprised
nlmort every day by the excellent re
sults from Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. It
is remarkable how effectually they re
move the excessive seciellon and bring
about a healthy condition of the mu
cous membianes of the nose and stom
ach." All druggists sell complete treat
ment of the tablets at HO cents, and
a little book giving the symptoms and
causes of tile various forms of ca
tarrh will be mailed free by addressing
