To Cure Catarrh. D not depend upon snuffs, inhalants in-halants or other local applications. OaMrrh is a constitutional disease, and can be successfully treated only by means of a constitutional remedy liki' Hood's Sarsaparilla, which thoroughly thor-oughly purities the blood and removes th scrofulous taints which cause catirrh. The great number of testimonials testi-monials from those who have been cured of catarrh by Hood's Sarsaparilla Sarsapa-rilla prove the unequalled power of this medicine to conquer thisdisease. If troubled with Catarrh give Hood's Sarsaparilla a fair trial at once. K. O. T. Iff. Officers. Springville Tent No, 9 of the-K. O. T.

TIIorailTS OK T11K K.DITOKS. All great inrn have ideas or aims in life, for instance, Benjamin Franklin wanted to lie a sailor but by study he changed his career and became a printer. He was also the first man in America to write his biography. James A. Gartleld wanted to be a sailor in his youth but he. changing his ideal, obtained by diligent labor the highest civil office, that of President Presi-dent of the United States. Daniel Webster from a child wanted to be an orator and he reached the height of his ambitions, for probably he was the greatest orator America lias ever produced. "Lives of great men all remind us Wo can iiuike imr lives suliliine. And departing leuvn lit-li'iid us Kootpiints iu tlio sands of time." LONUKKU.OW. Some men's aim or ideal iu life is farming, grazing, mining, merchants, business, medicine, or law, all of which are honorable if they are honestly and conscientiously lived up to. The ideal of the young American should be to be strong mentally, physically and morally. They should develop their minds by diligent study; their physical power by exercise ex-ercise as in playing foot-ball, baseball, base-ball, and in a great number of different differ-ent ways. Their morals should be above reproach. "Heights by (treat men readied and kept Wert) not iilil allied liy Midden flinlit. But they, while their companions slept. Were tuilliii upwind In the night."
