There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all othe diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to lie incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local

cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science ha? proyen catarrh
tobe a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.

only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in dnees from ten

BOERS WILL

Orange Free State Has Agreed Definite
ly to Unite With the Transvaal in
Opposing tne British Assistance
Will Be Material.
London, Sept. 16. Indications from
all sources point to extreme gravity in
tho Transvaal situation. Pretoria ad
vices emanating from a Boer source say
the Transvaal reply is uncompromising,
and preparation for staunch resistance :e
proceeding continuously. Another Pre
toria special, dated September 15, Bays
the situation is now regarded as all but
bopelees, until Gieat Britain retreats
from her position.
It is now definitely stated that Orange
Free State has agreed to unite with the
Transvaal in resisting the British claims.
Of all the numerous, channels through
which South African news reaches
London, not one gives the faintest hope
that the Boer reply will be favorable,
the majority taking the view that war
is extremely probable.
The First battalion of Northumberland
fusileers, 900 strong, acd detachments
of the army service corps sailed on the
steamer Gaul at 2 p. in. today from
Southampton, cn route to Natal, amid

in splendid condition and openly anxious
for fighting. Gen. Sir George Stewart
White, who is going to ommand the
