Murk Twain says that in his earlier
days he did not enjoy the exceptional
prosperity which came later in his ca
reer. It is commonly the lot of genius
to suffer neglect at first and experi
ence did not affect his abiding good
nature. In a conversation with Wil
liam Dean Howells on one occasion the
subject of literature vicissitudes was
broached by the humorist.
"My difficulties taught me some
thrift," he observed. 'But I never
knew -whether it was wiser to spend
my last nickel .for a cigar to smoke or
for an apple to devour."
"I am astounded," observed Mr.
Howells, "that a person of so little
decision should meet with so much
worldly success."
Mark Twain nodded very gravely.
"Indecision about spending money,"
he said, "Is worthy of cultivation.
When I couldn't decide what to buy
with my lust nickel I kept It, and so
became rich."

Catarrh is usually regarded as nothing more serious than a bad cold or
Blight inflammation of the inner skin and tissues of the head and throat,
when it is, in fact, not only a vexatious and troublesome disease, but a com
plicated and dangerous one. It is true that Catarrh usually begins with a
cold in the head, but when the poisons, which are thrown off through the
Becretions, find their way into the blood, it becomes a constitutional trouble
that affect3 all parts of the body. It has more annoying and disgusting symp
toms than any other disease. There is a sickening and offensive discharge
from the nostrils, a constant buzzing noise in the ears, headaches and pains
in the eyes are frequent, while filthy, tenacious matter drops back into the
throat requiring continual hawking and spitting, and in certain stages of the
disease the breath has an odor that is very offensive. Catarrh is worse in
Winter, because the cold weather closes the pores and glands, and the pois
ons and unhealthy vapors which should pass off that way are thrown back
on the tender linings and tissues, causing the inflammation which starts
the unhealthy secretions to be ab-
Eeveral years aero my blood was bad
and I had in addition a dreadful case of
Catarrh. Sly nose was stopped up, I

sorbed by the blood. When the blood
becomes diseased with this catarrhal
matter all kinds of complications may
be looked for. JAs the blood circu
lates through the body the foul mat
ter finds its way into the stomach,
ruining the digestion and producing
, chronic Dyspepsia, or Catarrh of the
stomach. It also affects the fcidneys,
Bladder and other members of the body, while the general health is weak
. ened, appetite lost and the patient feels despondent and half sick all the time.
But worst of all, if the trouble is not checked the lungs become diseased from
the constant passage of poisoned blood through them, and Catarrh terminates
in Consumption, the most fatal of all diseases. You cannot get rid of Ca
tarrh by treating it with sprays, washes, inhalations, etc., because they only
reach the membranes and tissues, while the teal cause of the trouble is in the
, blood. These relieve the annoying symptoms for a time, but the poison is
all the while getting a stronger hold on the system and when they are left
off will manifest itself in worse form than before. S. S. S. is the greatest of
all blood purifiers, and when it has cleansed the blood, this pure, rich stream
circulates through the body, carrying healthful properties' to the diseased
parts. Then the inflamed membranes and tissues begin to heal, the dis-
cnarges cease, tne general condition ol
the system is strengthened, every one
i of the annoying and disgusting symp
toms pass away, and the patient is left
ia perfect health. S. S. S. is the best
remedy for Catarrh. It goes right into
the blood and removes all effete matter
and catarrhal poison and cures the dis
ease permanently, and at the same time builds up the entire system by its fina
tonic effect. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy--non-injui iou3 to the sys

Start the New Year Right!
TART the new year with a clean
mind and a clean body I
Most people are very neat
and clean in their outward
appearance, but how about the inside?
Are you clean Inside?
And if not, how can you face the New
Year with clean thoughts, clear intelli
gence, a fair, just, and bright mind, and
your full share of capacity for work and
enjoyment.
The holidays are over and everybody's
had a good time perhaps a little too much
of a good time. Over-eating and over
drinking have been the rule ever since
Thanksgiving Day.
Many people get little exercise in winter
and breathe much stuffy, over-heated in
side air,, ' .' .... , i
At the same time they eat too much rich
and Indigestible food, while' fresh fruit and'
fresh vegetables are scared In the market.
So stomach and bowels are .liable to be
over-taxed. . . ' . : 4. ?
Clog up, gtrelch and paralyse the large
Intestine by over-stuffing it with undi
gested food, so it can not carry off the
useless refuse, and It "backs up" the
.sewage, and compels the small intestine
to absorb the poison of decaying matter,
instead of wholesome nourishment. .
That's what must happen. . Isn't it plain
as day?
What's the result?
Nearly everybody "gains in flesh" In
the winter time, but It's pussy fat not
healthy flesh and muscle. The liver gets
inactive; the bile doesn't "work off";
the eyes get yellow; the skin gets dead
like putty and pale like dough, with bolls,
pimples, blackheads, liver-spots to break
the monotony. .'
Dizziness, headaches, blurred vision,
foul breath, sleeplessness and a temper
11kg a wild cat ,mako such persons very
pleasant company to themselves and
others.
But, you say "I'll take a course of
Spring medicine to clean me out next
April."
Not considering your duty to yourself
and family, isn't it certain that to leava
the body full of jni'on all winter, and
then suddenly after pt to fcro out all
impurities by one vk ?c:.l ai'.acl; danger
ous, absurd and unreasonable?
Keep clean Inside all tfie time. That's
the simple solution.
If you can not diet, or keep your mech
anism going by proper exercise, the self
evident alternative is to take Cascarets,
the sweet, fragrant, harmless little vege
' table tablets, that "act like exercise" on
your bowels, and gently but powerfully,
clean out and disinfect the whole digea-
7
A Gascaret every night before going to
bed will "work while you sleep" and
""make you "feel fine in the morning."
If you have been neglecting yourself
for some time, take a Cascaret night and
morning and break up the "constipated
habit" without acquiring a "cathartic
habit." .
,
Cascarets are sold by all druggists, 10c,
25o and 50c. The 10c size trial box Is a
neat fit for tho vest pocket or lady's purse.
Be sure to get the genuine, with th
"long-tailed C " on the box and the letters
"CCC" on each tablet. They are never
