THE PLAGUE OF WINTER CATARRH Every C»t»rrh sufferer dreads the return of cold weather, for at the 6rat cold breath of the season this plague of Winter is fanned into life with all its miserable symptoms. The nostrils are stopped up, and a constant drop ping of mucus back into the throat keeps up a continual hawking and spit ting, the patient has dull headaches, ringing noises in the ears and a half sick, depressed feeling all the time. Every inner lining and tissue of the body becomes inflamed, and secretes an unhealthy matter which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and the disease be comes constitutional. The catarrhal poison brings on stomach troubles, affects the Kidneys and Bladder, attacks the soft bones of the throat and head and if not checked leads to Consumption. A disease so deep-seated and dangerous cannot be washed out, neither can it be smoked away. Spray*. washes, inhalations, etc., are useless, because they only reach the membranes and tissues, while the real cause of the disease is in the blood. S. S. 3. cures Catarrh liecause it attacks it through the blood; it goes into the circulation and drives out all unhealthy accumulations and catarrhal matter, and when this is done every part of the system receives a supply of rich, pure blood. Then the inflamed mem branes and tissues heal, all discharge ceases, the depressed feeling of the body is relieved, and every symptom passes away. S. S. S. goes to the very root of the trouble, and by purifying Dliort V VCfiPTARI C and enriching the blood and building up the rUnc.LT VtktlSDU. entire system, cures Catarrh permanently. If you have Catarrh do not waste time with local remedies, but begin S. S. S and write for our book and any medical advice without charge. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. S.S.S.

ORIGIN OF THANKSGIVING DAY AND ITS SIGNIFCANCE A Purely American Day Which Comes Down to ut From the Puritans, With 8light Changes in Mode of Celebration. Thanksgiving Day is distinctly an American holiday ,says the New York World, its origin resting with the Puritans, who first celebrated It In 1621. At the same time the Puritans abolished Christmas, which they con cluded was a relic of prelacy and should not be observed by free think ing people. Thanksgiving Day, it is needless to say, has proved a popu lar holiday with their descendants, though Christmas has also come into its own again. There were no football games In 1021, the Puritans contented them selves by eating turkey and dodging Indians. Later, along in 1771, the day became a good excuse for riot ing between the whigs and the To ries. the former objecting to having the day proclaimed by governors ap pointed by the Crown. Strange to say, it Was not until 1860 .more than two hundred years after the first Thanksgiving Day that there was any effort made to establish it as a national festival. This move ment was started by Sarah J. Hale, editor of Godeys Lady Book and oth er publications—the same energetic woman to whose efforts the 1 building of Bunker Hill monument in the city of Boston is attributed. Many states in the union adopted the day as a regular annual event and It was fixed thereafter by guber natorial proclamation. Nowhere else is Thanksgiving cele brated with the zest that Is given it in the New England states, where it originated. There It ranks as the great annual family festival, In many parts even overshadowing the later Joys of Christmas. The day is a natural holiday in agri cultural districts, as it usually marks the close of the year’s work iu the fields. George Washington had given na tional prominence to the day, how ever, as far back as 1789, when he ap pointed twenty-four hours of celebra tion In November for the whole coun try.’ Again, in 1796, it was proclaim- the president’s mouth that jpive thanks . . . * y ^ Madison once issued a Thanksgiv ing proclamation also, but it did not become a regular presidential custom until 1863 when Lincoln set apart a day. From that time on every pres ident has observed Thanksgiving Day Like most holidays of the sort Its true purpose has long since given way to other things, and football games, special theatrical matinees and receptions now, to a large extent take the place of the ascetic ceremo nies of the old times. There are some places yet, however, where good, old fashioned Thanksgiving Day is still observed. VECwTADLC SICILIAN lairRenewer Rencwsiheh-;r,nioies it r v attain,restoresthetreshness.

Boasters are cousins of liars. Denying a fault doubles It Envy shoots at others and wounds herself. Foolish fear doubles danger.' God teaches us good things by our own hands. Ho hns hard work who has nothing to do. It costs more to revenge wrongs than to suffer them. Knavery Is the worst trade. Learning makes a man fit company for himself. Modesty is a guard to virtue. Not to hear conscience is the way to silence It. One hour today Is worth two to morrow. Proud looks make foul works of fair faces. Quiet conscience is quiet sleep. Richest is he that wants least. 8mall faults indulged In are little thieves that let In great ones. The boughs that bear most hang lowest. Upright walking is sure walking.
