Spring is a trying season. Indications of sick

pound of cure, is an old and truthful saying.
Therefore, we advise all who are troubled with the
complaints now very prevalent -headache, indiges

The "' cabinet will meet to-day. One
story is that the cabinet is thoroughly
united about the protection of British In
terests, but divided about what those inter

the failure of appropriations, since it was

of which they mentioned to the secretary

a statement showing the number of men
whose terms will expire between July 1

PERSEVERE
In the Use of this Eemedy until Cured,
It contains the Great Healing Ele
ments of Plants in their es
sential form as Obtained
by Distillation.
Catarrh, in its extent and destructive force, stands
next to Consumption, and is closely allied to it;
tor in certain constitutions the transitions from one
to the other is only a question of time. Ii is there-
tore a singular tning that those afflicted with It
should not make it the object oi their lives to rid
themselves oi it. A single bottle ol any remedy
cannot. In the chronic rtage, effect a cure, nor even
bring tne system rnder Its influence fully. In
many such cases tbe bones and cartilage of the
notffc are eaten away, the organs of bearing, of see
ing, and of tas'iug, soaffeced as to be rendered
useless, ine u vulva so Elongated and inflamed as to
nroduce a constant and distressing cough. Tbe re
turn to health must necessarily be slow, nnder the
most favorable circumstances, when so seriously af
flicted ; but n tLe evidence of its great value daily
comes to hand, we become more and more satisfied
that there does not exist a case of Catarrh that can
not be cured by a judicious and persistent nse of
Sahfobd's Radical Ccrc for Catakkh The re
lief in every cane obtained from the first dose is an
indication of what it will do when the system is
brought constitutional under its influence.
Samfobd's Radical Cube is sold bv all whole
sale and retail druggists throughout the United
States. Price 1.
