All observant physicians havo noticed tho
enormous Increase In catarrhal diseases In
recent years and the most liberal and en
Ilghtenacd have cheerfully given their ap
proval to tho new internal remedy, Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets, as tho most successful and
by far the safest remedy for catarrh yet
produced.
One well known catarrh specialist, as
oon as ho had mado a thorough test of this
preparation, discarded inhalers, washes and
sprays and now depends entirely upon
Stuart's Catar.'h Tablets In treating ca
tarrh, whether In tho head, throat or Wra
ach. Dr. Rlsdoll lays: "In patients who had
lost the sense of smell entirely and even
where the hetrlng has begun to be af
fected from catarrh I have had fine results
after only a few weeks' use of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets, I can only explain their
action on the theory that tho cleansing and
antlsoptlo properties of the tablets destroy
the catarrhal germs wherever found, be.
cause I have found the tablets equally val
uable In catarrh of tho throat and stom
ach, as In nasal catarrh "
Dr. Estabrook says: "Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets are especially usuful In nasal ca
tarrh and catnrrh of the throat, clearing
the membranes of mucus and speedily over
coming the hawking, coughing und expecto
rating. Any sufferer from catarrh will find
Stuart's Catarrh TabletB will give Immedi
ate relief and being In tablet form and
pleasant to tho taste, are convenient and
always ready for use, as they can be carried
In the pocket and usrd at any time, as they
contain no poisonous drugs, but only the
cleansing antiseptic properties of Eucalyp
tus bark, Qualacol, blood, root and II)'-

All druggists sell the tablets at 60 cents

New Style Tarklah Itnth.
The new style Turkish baths given at
The Bathcry aro becoming vory popular
among the ladles ot Omaha. Tho plan in
operation Is entirely different from tho old
style, only ono room or cabinet being
used for the several stages of the bath,
thereby avoiding much inconvenience and
eliminating all vchances for contracting
rolds while going from ono room to an
other, as Is tho, usual custom. Without an
exception, those who havo tried the new
plan pronounce It far superior to tho old
way. Not only Is there n vast Improve
ment In methods, but every appliance Is
strictly up-to-date and nothing has been
neglected or omitted which might add to the
comfort, convenience or well-being of
patrons. It Is also worthy of mention that
none but tho finest ot cold creams are used
at Tho Bathcry; a small Item, perhaps, but
It Illustrates the thoroughness and atten
