"The amount, .f 1.28, la not excessive,"

a charge against the board surely la not
questionable, but clearly defined by eeo
tlon 3M of the election laws under elec

of the election commissioner to -supply

THE TRUTH
ABOUT CATARRH
A Oarm IHsease That Cau e Stowed '

A good many claims are made for this
and that remedy for Catarrh and doubt
less, if you are a sufferer from thia dla
eaae, you have yourself tried many of
them and received no permanent benefit.
The fact remains however, that there
is a way to get rid of catarrh forever and
certainly the method most likely to suc
ceed and to cure where all else has fail
ed Is one that your own druxgiat has so
much fslth In that he will sell It to yoil
on a positive guarantee of euccens or
money bsck.
