Catarrh hai become such a common
dlseaie that a person entirely frre from
this disgusting complaint Is seldom met
with. It Is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than a bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, In fact, a complicated and
very dangerous disease; If not at first, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation Is carried to all
parts of the system.

One morning n few weeks ago a
lilitlst with a large nnd lucrative prnc
lee lu I'lirln. awoke to uuil.e the very
disagreeable discovery that a maid
whom he nml his wife had engaged
Mime days hefore had tlllted, carrying
away with her nil the money nnd Jew
elry on which she could lay her hands,
to'pjlher with gold which he used for
irofont.'.omil purposes, nnd last, not
Ii nit. a goodly collection of sets of
false teeth belonging to or destined
for dllTe.vut patients. One of these,
Imleed, Is said to have been the prop
erly of n former minister of world

ed with bntcd breath that a certnln
tooth, which bnd nlso been annexed by
tho girl, who Is evidently no respecter
of persons, had garnished the mouth
of a policeman who Is In such nn ex

lie that ns It may, the robbery was
extremely nnuoylng, since, besides the
loss of tho valuables, the worthy dent
ist was placed on . the horns of a di
lemma with regard to some of his
most eminent patrons. The mnld had
been secured by him nnd his wife at
n registry olllcc, by which sho had
been warmly recommended ns u young
womnn of tho utmost honesty, who
had recently como up fr6m tho coun
try, nnd wns therefore without guile.
Ho her employers Imagined that they
had lighted upon a veritable treasure,
ond grcnt was their disappointment
nnd Indignation when they realized
the extent of the dlastcr which bnd be
fallen them.
Their wrath Increased when tho den
tist betook himself to the prefecture
of pollfo to report tho theft and to
stimulate tho energy of tho authorities.
lie was shown tho photograph of tho
girl, who hnd been "wnnted" for some
time, nnd with good reason, for. ns
one olllclnl put It, "yours Is tho eighth
place which sho has cleaned out In
this way, ami yj-o have been looking
for her for mouths."
"Hut," objected tho dentist, "at tho
registry ofllce, where I picked her up,
I was told that sho had Just arrived
from tlio country with tho best of
characters."
'Well, that Is n good Joke," replied
tho fuuctlounry. "Why, wo hnd sent a'
photograph to that very houso with it
note to tho effect that wo wero lu
i enroll of her, its she had committed
seVcn robberies. They packed tho
young womnn off to yon instead of to
us, although we. too. id a i.tnct. for
her which, when sho Is caught, aim
, will keep fur Home lime."

WIVES AND BEATINQ8,

'llielr Hex rllioilld I'.ii'lnrr.
"How much beating should n wife
bear before sho made up her mind to
leave her husband?" was ono of tho
main subjects discussed today nt the
women's) conference of the In-IIIs-Naiue
Hoclcty In All Kouls Church, at
Madison avenue and CDIh street. In
tho opinion of Mrs. Louise Heymour
Houghton, editor of n religious news
paper, tho wire should submit rather
than leave her husband to be nt the
mercy of had Inlliieiipes.
Mrs. Hotiglon said that, although
there were lime lu tho present stulo
of society when a divorce seemed ncccs
nary, n higher nnd more Ideal stata
would make such a thing Impossible.
Hho called attention to the stormy do
mestic life of the prophet llosea. In
order to show lo what extent one pnrt
Iter should bear with the Indiscretions
nnd the sins of the other.
The sentiments produced n sensation,
and there was a murmur of dissent
One of thosu present asked If the
woman Injured hy mi Intoxicated hus
band should remain with htm, Mrs.
Houghton said that she had known
many noble wives and mothers whose
husbmids bad beaten them every Hnlur
day night. The speaker said that It
would be better for the family If thu
Injured wife had the grnce nnd tbe
strength of mind, and, above all, the
love for her husband, to hold to her
family relations.
Mrs. nilzabeth 11. (Jninuls suggested
that such treatment of a wife on thu
part of n husband wns degrading to the
innrrlage relation. Mrs. Houghton nn
swered that one soul could not degrade
another without that soul's consent
She said that she hnd known tn tbe
lower wnlks of life of husbands who
had beaten nnd 111 treated their wires,
nnd Hint, after nil, they had come
around nil right: whereas. If the wives
hnd left their lords and musters, tbe
men might have gone- Irretrievably to
the bad.
"What I wish to nsk," said Mrs. Ar
thur Smith, "Is, how long should a wife
submit to beating before she leaves her
hushnud'r"
"Mrs. Houghton, If I understand her
correctly," replied Mrs. Crnuuls, "said
there was no limit. Now, there was
John Wesley, whose wife dragged him
n round the house by the hair of his
head. It seems to me that It would have
been more dlgiillled hnd he resented It."

A new member of Congress wns very
nnxlous to get upon the good side of Su

Any one who rests bis head on n pil

slowly but surely committing suicide,

ural position for a man while sleeping
Is tho horizontal oue, and the llrst thing
to do lu order to accustom one's self to
It Is to remove the bolster. Within a
few mouths one will be nble to sleep
much more calmly than ever before,
nml, moreover, tho general health will
bo much Improved. This statement Is
not made lightly, but Is the result of
long experience. Tbo next step Is to re
move tho pillow, for not until then will
the circulation of tbe blood be ns free
as It should be. The pillow and bolster
keep the head and neck at an abnormal
angle, nnd consequently tho sleeper's
eutlro body remains during the night
In nn uncomfortable- position, and ono

"Why don't you sing, Miss Frisbeo?"
"Mo? Oh, I never sing," replied
the teacher, smiling her prettiest.
"But," exclaimed the boy, "the

THE TWINE SITUATION.
Market lias Been Advancing and Prices Arc
Firm
Some idea of the magnitude of tho
sales of twine may be gained from the
fact that during the first nine months
of the currant fis al year, the value of
fiber imports into the United States
was nearly (23,000,000.00.
Every man in tbe
Northwest who
has to do with the harvesting of crops
is interested in this matter. Many Mis. Kidder Tbe ideal riniauol
have pursued the old time policy of phia Prosa.
"waiting" for a break In the prices be-1
foro they buy their twine, but, for
many reasons, tbts year prospects are
that prices will remain practically un
changed, and certainly not lowered,
as as the fiber for this harvest's twine
has been already purchased. Some of
the largest houses have sold all tho
twine they will be able to produce for
the coming harvest, and are therefore ,
out of tbe market. In a few Instances ,
it is known in the trade that travel
ing salesmen and manufacturers have
cut wholesale prices In order to induce
dealers to enlarga their orders for im
plements, etc. But this has not been so
largely done as in former years, and
probably will not affect general prices
at all. Prices have rarely been so firm
a. at prewnt; that is to say, there has -
seiuomDeenso mtie snaoing or mo
aveva nl Ian kT tnafasa Tn aaanaMtfia rit
LaistuiMticu l't iv-woa -a. a. c uj J b
this period, manufacturers and jobbers,
complained frequently of cutting by
competitors. Just now no complaints:
of this kind are heard.
To anm up the situation there is not
in the fiber prices any warrant for re
ducing the quotations on twino, and it
probably is the best advice that can be
given to dealers generally to suggest
that they do not hesitate in baying all
the twino they need at the present
market price.
We note that the sales of btannard
Twine are not nearly so heavy this year
as they formerly were. This is only a
repetition of all past experience, that
when an an article Is gotten up to de
ceive or in imitation of a better one, it
Is only a question of time when it is
found out and is forced down to its in
trinsic value.
