All sedieal authorities agree that catarrh is no
more or less than an inflammation of the lin
ing membrane of the nasal air passages.
Nasal catarrh and all catarrhal affections of
the bead are not diseases of the blood , and it
is a serious mistake to treat them as such.
No conscientious physician over attempts to
do so. It Is hold by eminent medical men that
sooner or later a specific will be found for
OTery-disease from which humanity suffers.
The facts justify us in assuming that for
oatarrh at least a positive cure already exists
in Ely's Cream Balm.

The snow is nearly all gone , and although

John B. Johnson , who has been spending
the winter with his father , started on the 17th
inst. for ills claim in Cheyenne county.
Since the pleasant weather began the at
tendance at school has greatly increased ,
coming nearly up to the old standard.
A short time ago some bold ( ? ) man shot
a horse for Wm. Y. Johnson. It seems too
bad tltat a man should loose one of his best
horses in this way.
The Literary Society had a very pleasant
meeting , last Friday evening. The question

Consumption Cured.
An old physician , retired from practice ,
having had placed in his hands by an East In
dia missionary the formula of a simple veget
able remedy for the speedy and permanent
cure of Consumption , Bronchitis , Catarrh ,
Asthma and all throat and Lung Affections ,
also a positive and radical cure for Nervous
Debility and all Nervous Complaints , after
having tested its wonderful curative powers
in thousands of cases , bus ielt it his duty to
make it known to his suffering fellows. Actu
ated by this motive aid a desire to relieve
human suffering , I will send free of charge , to
all who desire it , this recipe , in German ,
French or English , with full directions for pre
paring and using. Sent by mail by addressing

What ft Costs to Murder in Tibet ?
L had arrived at Kanze in an evil hour , in
the midst of the festivities of the 15th of the
fourth moon , when the people from far and
near congregate there and the chiefs review
their men , and when drinking and fighting
are the order of the day. In Tibet nearly
every crime is punished by the imposition of
a line , and murder is by no means an expen
sive luxury. The fine varies according to
the social standing of the victim 120 bricks
of tea ( wortli a rupee a brick ) for one of the
"upper ten , " 80 bricks for a person of the
middle classes , 40 bricks for a woman , and
so on down to two or three for a pauper or a
wandering foreigner , as Lieutenant Lu Ming-
yang informed me. He said that there was
hardly a grown-up man in the country who
had not a murder or two to his credit ; and
later on Mgr. Biet , the Bishop of Tibet , cor
roborated this statement. Lieut. Rockhill ,
in March Century.
/s Consumption Incurable ?
Read the following ; Mr.C. H. Moris , Newark ,
Ark. , says : "Was down with Abscess of
Lungs , and friends and physicians pronounced
me an Incurable Consumptive. Began taking
Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption ,
am now on my third bottle , and able to over
see the work on my farm. It is the finest med
icine ever made. "
Jesse Middle wart , Decatur , O. , says : "Had
it not been for Dr. King's New Discovery for
Consumption I would have died of Lung
Troubles. Was given up by doctors. Am now
in best of health. " Try it. Sample bottles

BANKSVILLE BUDGET.
Let us all rustle and get in as much acre
age of crops as possible and take good care
of them , for if we don't sow and plant we
can't expect to harvest a crop.
The weather is One , and the snow is turn
ing to water that moistens the ground , mak
ing it in fine condition to start the grass and
such crops as are put in early.
The announcement that it was an Alliance
meeting that elected VV. H. Benjamin and
S. R. Seamands to solicit aid is not correct.
The meeting was ot the whole people of
Grant precinct , regardless of party.
The Grant precinct scheme has the bottom
knocked out of it , as they can't get passes to
the Egypt where they wanted to put in their
plea for aid in the way of seed and feed. If
we don't raise any crops the railroads will
not get tired shipping for us. OBSERVER.
