Chronic Nasal Catarrh which
% they cannot cure.
SYMPTOMS OF CATARRH.— DuII,
heavy headache, obstruction of the nasal
passages, discharges falling from the head
into the throat, sometimes profuse, watery,
and acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody and putrid; the eyes are
weak, watery, and inflamed; there is ringing
in the ears, deafness, hacking or coughing to
clear the throat, expectoration of offensive
matter, together with scabs from ulcers; the
voice is changed and has a nasal twang; the
breath is offensive; smell and taste are im
paired ; there is a sensation of dizziness, with
mental depression, a hacking cough and gen
eral debility. Only a few of the above-named
symptoms are likely to be present in any one
case. Thousands of cases annually, without
manifesting half of the above symptoms, re
sult in consumption, and end in the grave.
No disease is so common, more deceptive and
dangerous, or less understood by physicians.
By its mild, soothing, and healing properties.
Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy cures the worst
cases of Catarrli, “cold in tlie Head,”
Coryza, and Catarrlial Headache.
Sold by druggists everywhere; 50 cents.
“Untold Agony from Catarrli.”
Prof. W. Hausner, the famous mesmerist,
of Ithaca, N. Y., writes: “ Some ten years ago
I suffered untold agony from chronic nasal
catarrh. My family physician gave me up as
incurable, and said I must die. My case was
such a bad one, that every day, towards sun
set, my voice would become so hoarse I could
barely speak above a whisper. In the morning
my coughing and clearing of my throat would
almost strangle me. By the use of Dr. Sage’s
Catarrh Remedy, in three months, I was a well
man, and the cure has been permanent.”
“Constantly Hawking and Spitting.”
Thomas .1. Bushing, Esq., 2902 pine Street,
St. Louis, Mo., writes: “I was a great sufferer
from catarrh for three years. At times I could
hardly breathe, and was constantly hawking
and spitting, and for the last eight months
could not breathe through the nostrils. I
thought nothing could be done forme. Luck
ily, 1 was advised to try Dr. Sage’s Catarrh
Remedy, and I am now a well man. I believe
it to be the only sure remedy for catarrh now
manufactured, and one has only to give it a
fair trial to experience astounding results and
a permanent cure.”
Tliree Bottles Cure Catarrli.
Eli Robbins, Runyan P. 0., Columbia Cos.,
Pa., says: “My daughter had catarrh when
she was five years old, very badly. 1 saw Dr.
Sage’s Catarrh Remedy advertised, and pro
cured a bottle for her, and soon saw that it
helped her; a third bottle effected a perma
nent cure. She is now eighteen years old and
sound and hearty.”

A Movement In Paris to Establish More
Friendly Relations Between France and
Russia Dynamiters’ Trial Postponed.
Various Other Foreign News.
London, Jan. 14. —One of the latest fads in
Paris is the attempt by a few enterprising
and patriotic souls to inaugurate in a mild
form a sort of Russomania *in the circles
which give vogue to new ideas. To be Sure
it can hardly be expected that Russian cus
toms will t>e adopted to any extent in the
French capital even in deference to the edicts
of fashion.
The Gaul has a horror of tea, which he
never drinks except as medicine, and even
Madame Adam, who heads the movement to
draw the two nations into closer sympathy,
could not succeed in making the Russian
“Samovar” tolerated by the visitors.
Despite the praises lavished upon them by
some of the best critics, the works of Gogol,
Turquenief and Tolstoi have obtained few
readers in France, and one look at the Rus
sian alphabet would be sufficient to deter the
average Gaul from desiring a further ac
quaintance with the language of those whom
his is accustomed to consider as his allies of
the future. It has ♦mldenly dawned upon
the French mind after an interval of more
than thirty years that it was an ungracious
act to carry away the few articles of booty
appropriated from the ruins of Sebastopol,
and the appeal of Madame Adam to restore
the sphinxes which ornamented the facade of
the naval club in the city on the Black sea,
and which have now stood for three decades
in the garden of the Tuilleries, has excited
much attention and comment, mostly favor
able to the project.
The cross and bell of the church of St.
Vladamir, too, which are respectively at the
Hotel De Cluny, and Notre Dame should also
be restored, says the madame whose fiery
patriotism and hatred of Germany hare been
evinced by her appeals to the compatriots to
ostracise all German music, especially that
of Wagner. No one can see any impropriety
in this restitution, and who can doubt that
Russia, and particularly the city of .Sebasto
pol, will gratefully recognize this indication
of good feeling on thfi part of the French na
tion, tardy though it lie. The flags which
were captured in the 'Crimea have became
the prey of the moth, and the cannon were
melted into gaseliers, Which light the Boule
vard de Sebastopol, but the sphinxes can
reach the Russian city just *in time to orna
ment the new building of the Nabai club,
now nearly completed.
A grumbler in the Figaro speaks of the
French cannon lost in Russia in 1812 and now
in the court yard of the Kremlin at Moscow,
and asks if the czar has shown any dis
position to restore them, but the probabilities
are that the sphinxes, the cross and the bell
will go back to Sebastopol, teaching, says
one French journalist, a lesson to Germany,
where every mantelpiece bears a clock stolen
from the invaded provinces in the war of
1870.
British Pilgrims lleceiwd.
Rome, Jan. 14. —The pope has i\-eive<l the
British Pilgrims who were presented by the
Duke of Norfolk. The pope, replying to an
address presented to him by the Pilgrims,
sMd he felt grateful for the interest Queen
Victoria took in her Catholic subjects, and
prayed for her prosperity, with that of her
nation, whom he loved and admired. He
hoped for the restoration of peace between
the different parts of the kingdom, and that
the irritating questions which now divide it
would be settled, and reason and equity take
their place.

Robbed While Lying Dead.
Owingsville, Ky., Jan. 18. —A bold and
mysterious robbery is reported from Wyo
ming, a little town six miles north of this
place. Mr. Jesse Atchison, who was decid
edly the wealthiest man in that community,
diini a few days ago. A good share of the
old gentleman’s wealth consisted of ready
rash, a good deal of which he always kept
about the house, and, as the reporter has it,
on the night Mr. Atchison lay a corpse the
thief, evidently well acquainted with the
premises, entered and stole an amount of
money variously estimated at from 81,000 to
82,000. There seems to be not the slightest
clew to the perpetrator of the theft, and no
one is suspected.

ROBBED UNCLE SAM.
Indictment of the Assistant Postmaster of
Knoxville, Tennessee.
Knoxville, Tenn., Jan. 14. —A sensation
was created in the United States circuit
court here when the grand jury returned an
indictment against P. H. Sansom, charging
him with appropriating and embezzling
$3,700 of government money. Sansom has
been assistant postmaster here for the past
two years, and seemingly had his Looks in
good shape.
An examiner recently found a discrepancy
in his accounts amounting to about $3,700,
his peculations having extended over a year.
Friends of the unfortunate man paid the
shortage in full, but the government does
not seem satisfied with a settlement that
way. Sansom is now on bond, and will
probably be tried by this court. He has
excellent business qualifications, and is well
connected in Knoxville. Mrs. Sanson is the
youngest daughter of the famous Felix K. •
Zollicoffer.

tion of the Federal grand jury. Yesterday
one of the attorneys for Peteck received a
letter signed “A Penitent Man.” The writer
the robbery and inclosed S9O of the
money, saying he had spent the balance.
The writer of the letter is unknown. The
prosecution made no effort to fix it on
Peteck.
