TEN MILES
OF GRADING
Contracts Let Yesterday 70
Another Stretch
OF THE ORIENT RAILWAY
Heavy Work Which viii IN
vOIve a Neat Sum.

Yesterday ". c. Edwards of the ORR
ent Construction company, returned from
Fairview, Oklahoma, where a contract
was let for ten additional miles of rail-
road grading south to the river. This is
one of the heaviest pieces of work on
the line Of the road, the topography Of
the country being very rough, and the
contractors have been given four months
&c complete it. beginning on December I.
Mr. Edwards says that the work Of
grading alone will cost between 5000
and So 900 per mile contingent to the
amount of road TO be constructed. The
work shall be first class when complet
ed, the specifications Of every mile of
the road calling for high class work.
Mr. Edwards was unable to say when
work would begin in Wichita. He
thought q great mistake had been made
that a local construction company was
not formed on his suggestion eight or
nine months ago. He thought that If
his plan was accepted by the local bust
ness men at that time trains would now
be running between here and Fairview.
He thinks, however, that everything will
be all right and that work on this end of
the line will not be postponed much
longer

Every Breath of Hyomei

Nearly everyone who has catarrh knows
how foolish it IS to try and cure it by
drugging the stomach. Temporary re-
lief may be given, but a cure seldom
comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure catarrh
would be to have a change of climate;
but now with Hyomei you can carry a
health giving climate in your vest pocket
and by breathing it few minutes four
times a day soon cure yourself
The complete outfit Of Hycmei costs
but 800 and consists Of an inhaler that
can be carried in the vest pocket, a nedi-
cine dropper and a bottle OF Hyomei
The inhaler lasts a lifetime, and there

II is the most economical of all remedies
advertised for the cure Of catarrh, and is
The only one that follows nature in her

piratory organs.
The leading druggists of this city have
sold hundreds Of Hyomei outfits and the
more they sell. the more convinced they
are that they are perfectly safe in guar.

of love where they vowed TO love and
honor and cherish each other till death
Their future was very bright and they
entered upon their honeymoon the hap

ness seized the bride, according TO her
spouse, and as early as the sixteenth
day after their hearts were united in
one her love for him was cold. More
than that, according to statements in

family custom OF remaining out late

duties. Finally about September IL. six
weeks after bong married she abandoned
him and went 10 Knox. Indiana, where
she has since remained, positively refus-

following day, however, as Guy was
seated at the writing table in the hotel

PLANTATION which he designed sending
to Miss Betty, five representative cit

"Gee!" murmured Pettibone, despair

them; and Mr.. Lefflngwen, proprietor

Colonel.
The redoubtable Colonel had had "a

slightly over his right eye, the tip of
his cane planted firmly on the office

two lower buttons and his left hand
thrust into his bosom-to look at him

noted their grim and determined looks

Guy slept through it all, to be finally

hastily to dress. 1t was broad day-

Snatches of loud and excited CONVERSE
