Catarrh Cannot be Cured
With local applications, as they cannot reash
the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood or
constitutional disease, and in order to cure it
must take internal gemedies. Hall's Ca-
rrh Cure is taken internally, and acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous surface. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was
prescribed by one of the best physicians in
this country for years, and is a regular pre-
scription. It is composed of the best tonics
known, combined with the best blood puri-
filers, acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two ingredi-
ents is what produces such wonderful results
in curing Catarrh. Send for testimonials, free.

Advice, and Is Now Well
DEAR MRS. PixguAM:—Before using
your Vegetable Compound I'was a
great sufferer. I have been sick for
months, was troubled with severe pain
in both sides of abdomen, sore feeling
in lower part of bow-
els, also suffered
3 with dizziness,
headache, and
could not sleep.
g I wrote you a
letter describ-
ing my case and
asking your
advice. You
replied tell-
ing me just
N what todo. I
” followed your direc-
tions, and cannot praise your medicine
enough for what it has done for me.
Many thanks to you for your advice.

pound has cured me, and I will recom-
mend it to my friends.—Mrs. FLORENCE
R. HorFMAN, 512 Roland St., Canton, O.
The condition described by Mrs. Hoff-
man will appeal to many women, yet
lots of sick women struggle on with
their daily tasks disregarding the
urgent warnings unt’ overtaken by
actual collapse.
The present Mrs. Pinkham’s experi-
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worlied side by side
with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for
sometimes past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
BETTER
THAN
BUTTER
Butterine is. That is, it is better than very
nearly all butter. ‘J he best butter that can be pro-
duced is as good as Butterine. It isn’t better. It
can’: be. And the butter is as good only at the |
moment it comes trom the churn. 1t doesn’t stay
so. Butter and Butterin® remain on a parity only
for a few moments. The butter begins to deterio-
rate immediately. The Batterine doesn't.
Why do you not buy Butterine ?
It’s because you are prejudiced. You have [been
told that Butterine is artificial. What does artificial
mean ? It means a variety of things according to
circumstances. Butterine is artificial. So is but-
ter. Butterine 1s manufactured by a process.
Butter is manufactured by a process. One is just
as artificial as the other. The elements of both are
produc:d by nature. Both come frcm the same
animal.
And these elements are practically indentical.
That’s why but er can’t be better than Butterine.
Pure Klondike gold can’t be any betier than pure
Cripple Creek gold. «.old is gold. Certain elements
are the same whether in butter or Butterine—
whetherin the milk or the fat of a cow.
The difference between Butterine and the best
butter is mostly in the process of making. The
Butterine process 1s superior and is a guarantee of
urit y.
y nd with all its merits Butierine costs less than
butter—only 15c¢. per pound. And at this low
price we wilt send it to you express prepaid.

ICHARD HO-
taling was in the
depths of per-
plexity as to his
status in the af-
; options gl 8 vers
- tain, -- Or, ‘more
properly spealk-
ing, a very un-
XY certain, young
ed AT woman whom he
much adored. He had beenso deeply
in love for more than a year that he
had had eyes, ears and thoughts for
none’ other than pretty, fascinating
Miss Dormer. Yet, so skillfully had
he heen managed (whether consciously
to herself or not, he knew not), that
no word of his could have been con-
strued to give evidence of more than a
friendly feeling.
There were others in his predica-
ment, and misery always loves com-
pany. At the same time he felt there
must be an end to all things, and had
resolved to bring matters to a state of
certainty without further delay, know-
ing full well that he had made a simi-
4 lar. decision a score of times before.
She had a way of turning the conversa-
tion at most interesting stages without
giving offense and with a show of tact
worthy a weightier cause. He could
recall any number of times when he
was on the eve of making a full
avowal, and. thought her particularly
sympathetic, when a turn of her head
or a glance of her clear gray eyes
would -throw~him back into the old
state of dejection and he would leave
with the words unsaid. Again, inter-
ruptions had come when he was at the
point of growing serious, and there
had been much in the way of declaring
his love.
She must have read it in his eyes,
in his every act, yet there were several
other fellows who wore their hearts
on their sleeves in a much more
amazing manner than did he, and who
were treated with the same calm im-
partiality. ;
There was Hilton, member of every
club in town, and possessed of such
an income as is never an objection in
the affair of the heart. There was
Ressler, the captain of his college
eleven, adored by all the girls, adoring
Miss Dormer only. There were Mal-
lard, Hollister and Smith, all rattling
good fellows, to say nothing of one
Bookleigh, a sort of literary man with’
long hair, ready made ties and original
poems. No man feared him as a rival,
however, for he made his love as com-
mon as postage stamps by talking of
her to everyone he knew. Moreover,
he was the kind of fellow to make a
hit with old ladies at afternoon teas,
and the men not only considered him
more of an ass than any one of their
acquaintances, but actually guyed him
to his face. Among themselves they
jestingly accused him of imperfect
cerebration. But in spite of these
facts, and that he enjoyed a fair share
of Miss Dormer’s favor, they liked him
because he was kindly-natured and
| altogether harmless.
As Hotaling chewed the end of his
pen, he meditated upon these things;
particularly Hilton's ten thousand a
year, and wondered if the latter con-
sideration would weigh with Miss
Dormer. He believed it would not,
and wrote her a note accordingly. He
asked for an engagement during the
week, adding that he had under con-
sideration an offer to go abroad as
foreign correspondent for a daily pa-
per, and that in case of accepting he
would sail the next Saturday. He
would leave it for her to decide
whether he should go or stay. It was
his last resource, and he felt that it
would bring things to a crisis. If she
refused him, he could go away—and
forget. If she—but the other possi-
bility plunged him into such a delir-
ium of delightful dreams that he de-
stroyed the missive and resolved he
would see her that evening and set his
mind at rest.
There is a popular fallacy that van-
ity is the prerogative of woman exclu-
sively. Many hold that the soul of
man is above such petty considera-
ticns as dress and personal adorn-
ment. Go to! Vanity hath no limit-
ations of sex. As Mr. Richard
Hotaling carefully accomplished his
toilet that evening, with frequent sug-
gestions from his valet, and more fre-
quent glances toward the mirror, he
thoroughly appreciated his good
points, and valiantly strove to make
the most of them, in order to look
well in the eyes of her he loved.
$i After donning his dress suit, which
he loathed, as most men do, it ooc-
curred to him fat he would feel
easier and consequently appear to bet-
ter advantage in his Tuxedo. At
length, attired to his satisfaction, he
felt that he was not such a bad® figure
of a man, after all, and that a girl
might well be pleased—but, of course,
no one ever really knows what a fellow
thinks under such circumstances, and,
all things considered, it were unkind
to speculate. However, it was with a
feeling akin to hope that he closed
the street door and went out into the
njght.
He was ushered into the music:
room, where he found her playing a
,dreamy melody of Chopin. She was
alone, and very lovely in soft tur-
quoise crape, which brought out the
ruddy gold of her hair and the fair-
ness of her skin to exquisite perfec:
tion. She heard him, and turned
quickly, with a bright smile, saying;
‘““How good of you to come to-night?
Mother and the boys have gone to the
opera, and I am alone for the even:
ing.”
“I did not dream of being so for-
tunate,” he murmured, as he took het
hand.
In some way it did not sound ex-
actly right, but he was fast losing
courage, and hardly knew what he
said. She sank on a low divan, and
as he took the place at her side he ob-
served that she was tantalizingly near
to him. Of course, he would have
given worlds to take her in his arms
at once and tell her all that was in his
heart, and have done with suspense.
He felt it would be a trifle irregu-
lar, however, and dismissed the
thought as he became more at easa
under the influence of her smiling
eyes. ~ He endeavored repeatedly to
lead up to the point in question, but
in vain, for she was altogether ob-
livious to the trend of his thoughts.
night before.*
‘To my mind,” she said, ‘‘there is
nothing more exquisite than ‘Romeo
and Juliet.” The music is heavenly,
and the story beautiful—mournfully
beautiful.”
‘“‘Evéry story of love is beautiful,”
he said, quickly. .
‘“Yegs, love is best of all. It is per-
fect,” she returned, with a far-away
look in her eyes.
‘‘I have a chance to go to Vienna as
foreign correspondent,” he began,
precipitately, ‘‘but before I decide
there is a story I want to tell you.”
She was still smiling dreamily, but
turned to him with a look of interest.
Her silence gave him courage; she
seemed to await his next words.
“It is a story of love, of my love for
you,” he said, desperately, taking her
hand.
She withdrew it quickly, with a look
of dismay, seeing he was terribly in
earnest.
“Will you hear it?” he continued.
mistaking her consternation for coy-
ness.
“Is it possible that you have not
heard—that you did not receive my
note announcing that-———-"’
‘‘Announcing what?’ he demanded
in amazement.
‘My engagement to Morris Book-
leigh,” she replied, with a happy
smile.
He sailed for Vienna the next
Saturday.
A Surprise Party.
“Brown had received a setback that
he will no ecover from for some
time,” said odson, as he sipped his
coffee. ‘‘I honestly believe that he
has corrupted every decent waiter in
the city by his outlandish system of
overtipping, making it almost impos-
sible for a modest tipper to get any
service at all.
“He had a habit of starting with
the head waiter, and tipping them all
down the line. I don’t know whether
he ever tipped the dishwashers or
not; but I have my suspicions that he
did.
‘““The result has been that the
waiters looked upon him as a sort of
Indian nabob, or a returned king
from the Klondike, and would pay no
attention to any one else when he was
present.
“You might complain and storm all
you liked. but it would have no effect.
‘When Brown entered everything else
was dropped until the imaginary
specks of dirt were wiped from the
immaculate table cloth and spotless
china,

which was always reserved for him.

and now he has discovered that the

The Camel as a Plow-Horse.
Count Skorzewski, a wealthy land-
owner in the province of Posen, Ger-
many, to the amazement of his rustic
neighbors, has introduced a novel de-
parture on his Czeaniejewoei estates,
which stands a fair chance of being
widely imitated in agricultural districts
in Western Europe. Instead of a
horse or ox a camel is yoked to the
plow, and the experiment has proved
successful beyond the Count’s most
sanguine expectations. The camel,
inured to hardships and privations,
does double the work of a pair of
horses, is exceedingly tractable and
can be kept in good condition—for a
camel—on a comparatively small
quantity of inferior fodder. The
‘‘Skorzewski quadrupeds,” as the
peasants of Posen facetitously call
the laborious intruders, were soon ac-
climatized, and are the envy of the
countryside.— Chicago Record.

Fifty-One Bridges for B. & O. R. R.
One of the largest bridge contracts
that has been awarded in many years
has been let by the Receivers of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. In or-
der to place the lines west of the Ohio
river in proper shape to handle the
heavy freight equipment that is being
used east of the river, the Receivers
found it necessary to rebuild 51 bridges
between Benwood, W. V., and Chica-
g0. That the structures might be rap-
idly pushed to completion it was de-
cided to divide the work among three
companies. The Youngstown Bridge
Company, of Youngstown, will erect 31
bridges on the Central Ohio division
between the Ohio river and Newark, |
Ohio; The Pencoyd Bridge Works was
awarded the 11 bridges on the Lake
Erie division, Newark to Sandusky,
and the Edge Moor Bridge Company,
of Wilmington, Del., will erect the 9
bridges needed on the Chicago division.
The total cost of these bridges is. in
the neighborhood of $300,000, and it is
expected that all will be in place by
September. Nearly six thousand tons
of steel will be needed for the struc-
tures.

A Beauty of the Arctic.
There is a beautiful bird called the
rosy gull, very few specimens of which
exist in any museum, and whose entire
life is spent in the immediate neigh-
borhood of the eternal ice that sur-
rounds the north pole. A paper de-
geribing these curious birds was read
at the recent meeting of the American
Association in Boston by Mr, John
Murdoch. They follow the advance of
the ice towards the south as winter
comes on, keeping near the loose edge
of the floating pack ice, and then re-
treat with it toward the north when
the summer sun begins to rise high
upon the Arctic circle. The bird is
small and of a deep rose color, whereas
all other gulls are white.
