with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and in order to cure it you
must take an internal remedy. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally
and acts through the Diood on the mu
cous surfaces- of the system. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this
country for years. It is composed of
some of the best tonics known, com
bined with some of the best blood pur
ifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Med
icine is what produces such wonder
ful results in catarrhal conditions

CE CREAM MAN
SAYS HE THOUGHT
HIS TIME HAD COME.
3ould Find No Relief From His Suf
fering-Feels Like New Man
Since Taking Tanlac He Declares.
It is indeed doubtful if there is a
letter known or more highly respect
id man in Knoxville, Tennessee, than
3. M. Smith. “Cal”, as he is known
;o his host of friends, has been promi
nently identified with the ice cream
manufacturing business in that city
'or a number of years, occupying a
responsible position with the Mono
[ce Cream Company. In relating his
-emarkable experience with Tanlac,
Mr. Smith recently said:
“About one month ago, I had a se
vere attack of what the doctors de
scribed as acute indigestion, and for
several days I was a very sick man.
Shortly after eating, one day, I be
;an to experience a very full, uncom
fortable feeling in my stomach. I
had never had anything like it before
and I hope I never will again, for
my stomach swelled up so from gas
that I could hardly breathe. My
Lands and feet got cold and clammy
and my pulse w'eak. I felt like I’d
give anything in this world for one
good deep breath. I started doctor
ing myself, but in spite of the medi
cine I took, I continued to get worse
and begun to think my time had
come.
“A friend of mine told me about
this Tanlac and I sent and got a bot
tle and started taking it. Well, sir,

to improve from the very start. By
£he end of the w’eek I was all
straightened out again and now thal
I’ve taken three bottles, I feel like a
new man. I have forgotten all aboul
the indigestion and can eat just any
thing I want.
“Tanlac just beats anything I evei
saw. Nearly 'everybody in my neigh
borhood is taking Tanlac and they ar<
all praising it.”

SAGE TEA DANDY
It’s Grandmother’s Recipe tc
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair.
Tou can turn gray, faded hair beau
:lfully dark and lustrous almost over
night if you’ll get a bottle of “Wyeth’s
Sage and Sulphur Compound” at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved
oy the addition of other ingredients,
ire sold annually, says a well-known
druggist here, because it darkens the
hair so naturally and evenly that no
>ne can tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have a surprise await
ing them, because after one or two
applications the g’-sy hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren’t
wanted around, so get busy with
Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound
to-night and you’ll be delighted with
your dark, handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days.
This preparation is a toilet requisite

gation or prevention of disease.
IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
3aya Backache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forma uric acid.
When you Wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
erally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their erfTort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re
moving all the body’s urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dijzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief *two or three times during
the night.
