Freight trains must have an equally

make for tho safotv of the nubile and

Another law passed by the lnt

Millions of Lives Lost
An Ahitil Toll Collected by Consumption.
Many Unnecessary Deaths from this
Disease.
If people could only understand that
systemic catarrh is an internal disease
that external appHcationscaniiotciire.
they would not need to bo warned so
often about this malady, which, when
neglected, paves the way oftentimes
for consumption, at tlio cost of millions
of lives every j ear. Yet catarrh may
bo cured, if tlio right treatment is ein
pMoyoH. Catarrh is caucd by a general
diseased state of tho system which
leads commonly to annoying and pi-r-haps
serious local conditions, ubicti
may prove a fertile breeding (.round
for germs of consumption. Mxteinai
remodies give but temporary eae.
The only wav to successfully Heat
catarili is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and can led by tho
blood to all parts of the system, so
that tlio mucous membrane or internal
lining of the body is toned tip and
made capable of resisting the infect
ion of consumption and otherdiseases.
Wo have a remedy prepared from
tho proscription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and uittdo
catarrh a specialty, and whoso record
was a pationt restored to health iu
every case whore his treatment was
followed as prescribed. That remedy
is Roxall Mucu Tone. We tiro so posi
tive that it will completely overcome
catarrh in all its various forms, wheth
er itcute.or chronic, that we promise
to return eveiy penny paid us for tho
medicine iu every case where it fails
or for any roason does not satisfy the
user.
We want yon to try itexall Jltioti
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We arc right here where
you live, and you do not contract any
obligation or risk when you try Uoxall
Mucu-Toni! on our guarantee. Wo
have Ko.Mill Mucu-Tono in two sizes,
Go conts. and 81. Very often the taking
of one r0 cent bottle is sulllclent to
mako a marked impression upon the
case. Of course iu chronic cases a
longer treatment Is necessary. Tho
nvcrngo iu such Instances is thrco 81
bottles. Remember you can obtain
