And yet there may be twosidee to tbis question, for there is certainly flirting and flirting. Tbe emancipation of the American girl of today has done much to obliter ate all trace of what was hitherto called “flirting” in its true sense Tbe freedom of companionsbip, tbe healthy moral tone induced by exer cise and open-air pastime, has oorne as iu fruit of bon camaraderie toward men, an honest appreciation of man as sn acquaintance, even friend per haps, but a something decidedly other than lover or admirer. Is tbis, then, tbe flirt, this person ality that attracts the best of every nature with which It comes in con tact*? It is rather, we think, a wise appreciation by men of ibe best that life has to offer. It is like iobaling the perfume ot roees, or tbe song of birds io spring—a little bit of Mother Nature’s best production, and as such to be regarded and revered. There is more Catarrh io this sec tion if tbe ccuntry thau all other distafe- put together, and until tbe last few years was supposed to be in curable. * For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease aod prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment pronounced it incurable.

Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internal ly Io do«es from 10 dreps to a tea- spoonful.
