After the war he embarked in a business
enterprise in Louisville. This failed and
Jones lost more than 500 CO. which repre-
sented his Inheritance. A romantic story
is connected with this failure which IS be-
lieved by his friends to account for his sub
sequent listless career. He was engaged
10 daughter of a prominent Louisville
family. When he lost his money he gave
his fiancee her freedom. II she chose 10 take
It. They parted. and in three months she
married another.
This action on her part paralyzed all
ambition once possessed by him. He re-
moved from Louisville to New Orleans, and
later to Memphis. At the latter place he
was for many years Deputy United States
Marshal. II was after he lost this position
that he came to ST. Louis.

The Old and
The New Way
OF Treating Catarrh,
Bronchitis and Consumption.
THE OLD METHOD
IHdsf which III, death rate Increased tWsaiy
per cent annually.
TIE NEW METHOD
which reduced the death rate thirty -four per
cent II 1909.

The above facts, obtained from statistics
furnished by the Government, show,
more plainly than words can express,
the wonderful change that has been
made In the treatment Of respiratory dis
eases during the past few years. For
merly, any sufferer from Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Consumption or Bronchitis was at
once placed under the care OF a physi-
clan and dosed with all sorts Of nause-
ating drugs and tonics. Even as far back
as twenty-five years ago, the doctor
seemed to be aware of the fact that
in order TO reach these diseases inhala-
ton must be used, and experimental
with atOmizers, sprays, and douches, In
the hope of finding some germicide
which could be forced into the bronchial
tubes and lungs. That all these treat
ments proved practically useless is
shown by the fact that during the past
twenty years the number of deaths from
Catarrh and Consumption alone in
creased from $4,000 to over 215,OO0 an
nually. The discovery that these terrible
scourges were germ diseases did not
lessen the death rate, for of all the
germicides known to the profession but
one Of them could be inhaled into the
lungs, and this, Chlorine Gas, was
deadly poison. The others, Carbolic Acid,
Ammonia and Creosote Qiquids), must
touch the germs themselves In order to
destroy: consequently, could not be used
with effect, as it is absolutely impossible
for moisture in any form TO enter the
bronchial tubes and lungs.
Only the discovery of HYOMEI, the
new Dry Air Germicide, by Booth, in
1895, made the cure OF these diseases
possible; without it there was no way
Of reaching the germs, and up TO the
present day no other has been found.
HYOMEI alone is the only germicide
of sufficient power TO destroy the bacilli
of Catarrh, Bronchitis, Coughs, Cold,
Group and Consumption, and which can
be taken in the air we breathe without
injury to the patient.
HYOMEI can be used at any time and
in any place. You can sit in your own
home, in church, at the theater, and cure
yourself. The little Inhaler can be car
ried In the pocket and a few moments
Use of same will prevent Coughs, Colds,
Bronchitis, Pneumonia and Group. You
take no risk as with all other treat
ments, for every bottle is guaranteed
and your money refunded II 1t fails TO
cure.
1t is the opinion of physicians that if
the public can be taught TO use 1t daily,
such diseases as Catarrh and Consump-
tion will soon become unknown.
