Successfurpoliticians in Wash
ington generally agree 'hat their
prestige consists of not so much
in keeping their wits together, as
in keeping their lips together at
the right time.
It is possible that the visit of
Prince Henry will aspire Edwin
Markham to the writing of a poem
to commenorate the occasion. It
could be called “The Man With
_i.litt.Ho—enzollurn.”
Among the list of presents that.
Prince Henry is bringing to this
country is a gun for the Presi
dent. He has evidently read Mi.
Roosevelt’s stories of “Wild Ani
mal! Who Have Met Me.”
The Emperor of Austria naked
Charles M. Schwab if an Ameri
can found anything in Europe
‘worth learning, to which the steel
king replied that the greatest
ideas came from Europe, hut that
America perfects than.
In England there is a coinci
dence between creinls nnd trades.
Cocoa maufucturers are Quakers ;
cigar dealejs. Jews. Welshman
are generally druggists, and the
Irshman, lacking the money-mak
ing instinct, almost invariably
goes into journalism.
A genuine gold find of consider
able value whs made by workmen
digging a machine pit for the in
stallation of a new elevator in the
Denver city hall. The mine is
under the center of the building
and about eighteen feet below the
street level. It may^provea bon
anza if the vein of sand that
shows the “color” can be traced
to some locality where it can be
worked.
The Times (Ellijay) says that
Blue Ridge can give out tho drinks
now without going behind the
door. “Give a man power and it
proves his true character” is as
true as steel. ‘ Where a town votes
for a saloon is evidence the voters
have hid as long as they well can
and they can’t quit so the only
thing can be done is to vote licen

Abide J. Rande, of Marshall, Mich., writes:
“ I was cured of a bad humor after suffering with it for five years. Tho
doctors and my friends said it was salt rheum. It came out on my head, neck
and ears, and then on my whole body. I was perfectly raw with it. What I
suffered during those five years, is no use telling. Nobody vyould believe me if
I did. I tried every medicine that was advertised to curq it. I sptfnt money
enough to buy P house. I hoard JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA aiffi highly had
praised. I tried 5* bottle of it. I began to improve right away, when 1
finished the third bottle I was completely oured. I have never had a touch of it
since. I Dover got any thing to dp me the least good till I tried JOHNSTON’S
SARSAPARILLA. I would heartily advise all who are suffering from humors
or skin disease of any kind to try it at once. I had also a good deal of stomach
trouble, and was run down and miserable, but JOHNSTON’S SARSAPARILLA
made me all right."

What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in thA
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability,
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many time^
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
“Something New Under
The Sun.”
All Doctors have tried to cure
CATAliRAH by the use of powders,
acid, gases, inbalers and drugs in paste
form. Their powders dry up the inu
ouous ipembrames causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful
acids used in the inhalers, have en
tirely eaten away the same membran
es that their makers aimed to cure,
while pastes and Ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and ex
perienced practioner who study has for
many yea ,- s made a close and
specialty of the treatment of CA
TAlillH, has at last perfected a
Treatment which when faiih'utly but
used, not only relieves at once,
permantly cures CATARRH, by re
moving the cause, stopping the dis
chaiges, and curing ail infiamation.
It is the*only remedy knowh to sci
ence that actually reaches the afflict
ed parts. This wonderful remedy is
knowm as “SNUFFLES the GUAR
ANTEED CATARRH CURE” and
is sold at the extremely low' price of
One Dollar, each package containing
internal and external medicine suffi
cent for a full month’s tieatmeiH and
everything necessary to its perfect use.
“SNUFFLES” is the only perfect
CATARRH CURE ever made and
is now recognized as the only safe
and postive disgusting cure for that annoying
and disease. It cures all
infiamation quickly and permantly
and is also wonderfully quick to re
lieve IIAY FEVER or COLD in
the head.
CATARRH when neglected often
leads to CONSUMPTION--“SNUF.
FEES” will save you if you use it
at oi.ee. It is no ordinary remedy,
but .a complete treatment which is
postively guaranteed to cure CA
TARRH in any form or stage if used
according to the directions which
accompany each package. Don’t de
lay bufi send for it at once, and write
full particulars as to your condition,
and you will receive special advice
from the discovefbr of this wonder
