The early stages of the disease are characterized by such symp toms as a tight, stuffy feeling in the nose, watery eyes, ringing noises fa the ears, irritation of the throat, and often hoarseness and difficult breathing. If the trouble is not checked it invades the stomach and other portions of the body and becomes a dangerous disorder.

Cullom in the I'n lted States senate, was born in Miami county, Ohio, November 8, 1858. Less than a year later he was taken by his parents to Illinois, which state has been his home ever slcne. At the age of sixteen he went to work on his father's farm and for several year all the schooling he had was acquired through his own efforts from books. With money earned fay helping his neighbors through the threshing sea son he was enabled to attend McKen droo college, where he graduated in law in 1882. Within a few years he was elected city attorney of Macomb, Illinois which position proved to be a stepping-stone to the office of county Judgr;. After one term on the bench Judge Sherman returned to the prac tice of his profession and soon was rated as one of the leading lawyers of central 'Illinois. He became a mem ber of the Illinois house of represent atives in 189f and later served as lieutenant-governor of the state. Congratulations to: Henry E.
