had recently been offered $500, was
killed instantly, but the others lived
until afternoon. There was not a mark
on any of the animals, except where
one was scratched by falling against
the barbed wire, and the only
evidence of the presence of the fluid
was that one of the fence posts was
sivered.

HAY FEVER ABOLISHED
Relief for This MaIady Discovered by
Medical Scienee-Breathe Hyomei.

Among the important additions made
to medical science in recent years,
none is more notable than the positive
announcement of cure for hay fever
While this disease is not regarded as
fatal, it is certainly most distressing
malady, and if anything can be devised
to cure it, a great boon will be con-
ferred upon the human race.
Exhaustive experiments with Hyo-
mel prove that this treatment will pre-
vent all attacks of hay fever if used
two or three weeks before the annual
appearance of the disease and that it
may be relied upon if used faithfully
after the disease has begun, to relieve
at once and afford a speedy cure.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch G
Webster have sold hundreds Of Hyo-
mel outfits for the treatment Of dis
eases Of the respiratory organs under
the agreement to refund the money if
Hycmei did not afford relief.
In selling Hyomei for the cure Of hay
fever, they will continue this equitable
plan, and want all who are subject to
this distressing maladv to begin its
use at once, with the understanding
that IL it does not give satisfaction,
the purchase price is to be refunded.
Stomach dosing cannot cure hay
fever. A change of climate is the only
treatment that has heretofore aborted
an attack, and Hyomei which is
breathed through a neat pocket inhaler
coming with every outfit, acts upon
this principle, giving in your own
home climate like that of the White
Mountains or other health resorts.

Augusta Produce Market.

But little change has occurred in the
produce market of Augusta in the past
few days. Prices remain practically the
same. The rain of the week, however
had an effect upon the potato and Gu
cumber market, it being impossible, or
practically so, for the farmers to gather
these, which had the effect of increas-
ing the price. 1t is probable that the
next few days will see this changed
and see a bit of decline in the price
At least that is what the dealers are
looking forward to.
Up to the present time the supply
Of native beans and peas has not been
over large in the market, but dealers
were looking for a supply of beans to
come in, this morning, but they would
quote no prices on them.
The prices which the farmers are
getting for produce, as quoted on Fri
day, appear in the following list:
RUTTER-Choice dairy, 20 to % cts.
BUTTER-Ordinary grades. IA to 10 cts.
BtTTER-Creamcry, % cts.
