If it doesn't benefit or cure, you have your money back. Isn't it safe to say that no other Wood - purifier can be "just as good?"

It is this: "If we can't cure your -Catarrh, we'll pay you $500." THE BOER COUNTRY. Remarkable Growth, of the South African Republic.

An English novel in the early days of this century found no readers when announced as 'The Champion of Virtue," hut imme diately became popular as the "Old English Boron." Last June, Dick Crawford brought his twelve months old child, suffering from infantile diarrhoea, to me. It had been weaned at four months old and being sickly everything ran through it like water through a sieve. . I give it the usual treatment in such cases, but with out benefit. The child kept growing thinner until it weighed but little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds. 1 then started the father to giving Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Before one bottle of the 25 cent size had been used, marked improvement was seen and its continued use cured the child. Its weakness nnd puny constitution disap peared and itB father and myself believe the child's life was saved by this remedy. J. T. Mablow, M.

Deafness Cannot be Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is cauBed by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, am' unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed forever ; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (.caused by catanh that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & Co.. Toledo. O. "Sold by Druggists, 75c. The territory comprising the Trans- i vaal or South African republic covers an area larger than that of France. It is peopled by the Boers, who .fled from the tyrannical form of government which the English sought to impose up on them further south. The Boers are the descendants of the sturdy Nether- landers, who constituted Holland a re public and a formidable power in the sixteenth century, and of ihe Hugue nots.Mvho were driven from France by the revocation of the edict of Nantes in 1C85 by Louis XIV. Thus in the Boers of South Africa there is a com bination of the characteristics of two people who are conspicuous in Euro pean history for . the struggles they waged for political and religious lib erty. Since the days when the first band of hardy immigrant Boers crossed the Vaal river, where England's tyran ny stopped at following them, and planted their cabins on the broad and sunny slopes of the Transvaal, the country has gone through the changes and throes which mark the life of in dividual and nation alike. Within the past five years a marvelous devel opment of population, resources and industries has followed on the success which gold mining has achieved. Rail way communication now connects Johannesburg via the diamond mines of Kimbcrly with the Cape of Good Hope, a distance of nin- hundred and forty-five miles. Other connections are rapidly progressing from Natal and Delagoa bay, centralizing at Pre toria, the capital and seat of govern men in the Transvaal. The constitution of the South African republic, says Goldthwaite's Magazine, is based on Roman Dutch. The legis lative power is vested in the volksraad, the members of which are elected by their constituents for four years. I he executive consists of the president, elected for five years by a general elec tion throughout the state, the state secretary elected by the volksraad for four years, and four unofficial members chosen for three years by the volks raad. The chief officer in each district is the landdrost, who acts as magis trate and civil commissioner, with the assistance of a clerk, who is at the same time public prosecutor and dis tributor of stamps. Each district is further provided with a baljuw or sheriff, gaoler and a staff of constables. With the exception of a corps of inounted artillery and police, com manded by three officers with about sixty men, the republic has no armed force. The president, with the concur rence of the executive, has the right to declare war and call up a commando. in which the burghers are placed under the field cornets and command ants of each district. The whole force is commanded by the commandant (general, who is elected by the country for the term of ten years. All inhabi ants of the state between sixteen and sixty years of age, not exempt accord ing to law, are liable to service on commando. President Kruger is now occupying his office for the third term He is a patriot, a man whose heroic life posterity will honor. Among the Boers he is known exclusively as "Oom Paul." Uncle Paul." Though a man of rugred exterior, untutored even as regards the most elementary branches of education, he has shown a practical capacity for government that has been a match for the most finished diplo macy and statecraft. For the conser vation of the interests of the mining class, almost entirely English, he in fluenced the volksraad to establish a second chamber, to which they could send their representatives. This cham ber legislates in the interest of the English class and for the local inter ests of the country, the volksraad holding the right of veto over its pro ceedings.

"All flesh is not the same flesh," and there are people who cannot under stand the esthetic delight in what to a grosser sense is at best a mere matter of sensuous pleasure and in many in stances simply an affair of dollars and cents?" What flowers are, for instance, to some feminine natures is incompre hensible to less poetic beings, w;ho, however pleased they may be with the costly beauty of exotics are quite in capable of feeling the true spell- of their loveliness. One of these true lovers of flowers, calling on Mrs. Midas the other day, says the New York Tribune, was shown into .her sumptuous drawing room, which, in accordance with the delightful fashion of the day, was filled with costly roses in the greatest profusion, and was redolent of their perfume. , Quite entranced, the "lover of flow ers" wandered from one f ragant speci men to another, and finally was hang ing with delight over a large bunch of "Mme. Cousines," whose exquisite pink looked most enchantingly fresh in a large bowl of clear cut crystal, when her hosteGS entered. "Admiring the roses, are you?" said the latter, after the first greetings had been said. "Yes, they are pretty nice this morning; I gave carte blanche to Blank to fiU my vases every other day, so I have no trouble about tbem at alL But don't waste your praises over those twenty-five-cent things; only smell these," pointing to the superb cluster of American Beauties.
