CATARRH
A Constitutional Affection.
Spray*, washes, powders, salve*, medicated
tobacco and cigarettes, however long and persistently
used, do not cure Catarrh. They relieve temimrarily
the inflammation in the throat and no*e, and enable
you to breathe more easily and freely, bat the con
tinual rush of impure blood to thesa parts keeps up
the irritation and ultimately produces ulceration of
the glands, when the breath l>cc<$pe- exceedingly
offensive and the soft bones of the nose are frequently
destroyed. The catarrhal inflammation extends over
the entire surface of the mucous membrane, or inner skin ; the stomach, kidneys
and lungs arc often involved ; the whole system soon becomes affected bv the rapid
absorption of poisonous matter into the blood, and the discv.se Hut you bad hoped
to cure with simple local remedies, gMumcs a dangerous form.
tu LUIV WHU IVXUI a w IIIVUISS)
I had Catarrh about IS years, and |
tried during the time everything I could
bear of, but nothing did me any good.
At laat I came to the conclusion that
Catarrh must be a blood diaeaae, and
decided to give S. S. S. a trial. I could
■ee a little improvement from the first
bottle, and continued it three or four
months, or until I wae cured. Have
not taken anything for sin years. and
am Juat ae well aa I ever waa. M. MAT.
SON. Lapeer, Mich.
Catarrh is a constitutional disease — a blood disease which is frequently
inherited, and only a blood medicine, such as S. S. S., can remove the hereditary
taint, destroy tbe poisons that have lieen accumulating in the system for years
perhaps, and restore the blood to a healthy and pure condition. The inflamed
membranes and diseased glands arc healed by the neb, pure blood which is carried
to them, and the offensive discharges from the nose, and the terrible headache and
neuralgic pains cease. Chronic cases of the most desperate character and apparent
ly hopeless, have been cured completely and permanently by the use of S. S. S.

The squire left n good fortune when
he died. A* he fell age npproa.-liing he
put hi* men at work on the construction
of a big tomb. Jie located this in the
gnriKh in the rear ot the old mansion
flint still stand* a* one of the show plac
es i'i the town of Athens. On hi*
deaf I'bed he iMtted commands n« to
what hi* relative* should do with his
body after dissolution. He ordered
them to place him in the leaden eofllu
he had bought some months earlier, itnd
after it had been stored in the tomb to
|s>ur the coffin full of Jamaica rum.
The curious stipulation wn* curried out
carefully. > Jt
Thon, when the old man's will w is
read, it was discovered that the chief
heir had some singular business on hi
hand*. The will went on to explain
that the testator couldn't bear the idea
of ludng laid away in the tomb forever,
knowing that he Would be left to mol
der forgotten. He wanted hi* relatives
ever to liem in mind, and hi* method
of jarring their memory annually wa»
(hi*: Thi* will djrecled attention to
(he title -|*mt sticking up at the head
of the casket. The command wa* that
annually each June on the anniversary
of the squire’s burial the chief heir
should enter the old tomb, bringing a
jug of rum. and I hut he should replenish
the supply in the coffin. As jhc penal
ty for failing to do thi* wa* forfeiture
of the right* a* chief heir, the squirt *
coffin ha* lieen kept tilled up with exact
attention to detail. The graves of oth
er veteran* have not been kept green »>
assidiousty.
The fatuity removed from the old man
sion some years ago in order to affoid
tlie -on* and daughter* more advantage*
in on< of the cities in Maine. Recently
the heir upon whom devolves the duty
of currying the jug of rum to the esti
mable and well preserved old gentleman
in Athens, suspended his bilsuiess en
gagement* for it day and started on hi*
annus 1 trip. He .went Io Solon t.y

rode across the country. The mansion
-land* a bit mrtiOf'IJie village. When
the heir turned in nt the gate bctivecr
the double roll's of towering lilac bush
es. no one in the mdglibOrli.Mhl hap|iened
t<> spy him. The visitor hitched hi
horw st the rear of the house, out of
sight of I lie road, and then proceeded
toward the tomb. Ho tel liim-etf into
it, and when the overflow from the
~|H)ut indicated that the coffin wa* filled
he started for the door.
Now it chanced that through age and
heaving by the frost one of the flag
stone* with which flic tomb i* pi veil jm
ted it* edge above its neighbors. In the
gloom of the tomb the heir didn't sc.'
the stumbling block, mid ho struck it
ami tiippeil. A* be tripped, he hingdc
forward and slannned full tilt against
the insid eof file half opened door. Ilie
door banged shut, and the great hinge
outside clicked into place. Ilie luir
was a prisoner in the tomb of hi* a nee
tor.
I'he door fitted very snugly against
the tomb. The victim broke hi* fnigcr
nails in the cracks trying to start the
door, but it wa* no use. The portal was
immovable. There wasn't an article in
the tomb fit for a lever. As the pri-on
er croiichHi nt the door feeling around
him that lie hi* hand came in contact
with the jug that he had partly emp
tied. He was a temperance man anil
a ehnreb man, but he realized that thi
wa- a <"se where heroic remedies were
required. He tipped up the jug and
bctnin tc. numb hi* sensibilities.
Thal night a telegram was started for
Athens inquiring as to the wheruhout*
of the heir. He had neglected u busi
ne** engagement with a man. The tel
egram was delivered to the postmaster
in Athens the next afternoon by a mes
senger. who drove over in a team and
who had rapped on the floor the old
mansion witiiout getting any reply. The
postmaster supposed that the heir wu
on his* way to the village, and that the
telegram had come ahead. So he
stuck if in his rack and waited.
Late in Hie afternoon another tele-
»r-im cqme this time to the postmaster
himself. Then the postmaster began (o
a-k questions. Xo one had seen the
man in town. About dusk a party
went to file old mansion for the purpose
of looking around for clew*. The ani
mal had gnawed all the hushes in reach,
and it could be seen that he had been
there some lime.
