MANY CURES IN AUGUSTA.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch and
Webster Report Good Work Done by
Hyomei in Curing Catarrh.

1t is seldom that a remedy has made
so many cures in SO short time, as
Hyomei has in curing cases of catarrh
in Augusta.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch and
Webster have so much faith in the
powers of Hyomei to cure catarrh that
at the very start they sold the remedy
under their personal guarantee to re-
fund the money in case it did not give
satisfaction. AS yet they have had
but two customers who asked them to
refund the price while scores have told
of the remarkable cures accomplished
by this medicine.
Hyomei cures catarrh by new prin-
ciple, by breathing balsamic air, not
by pills, drugs, or nauseating liquids.
1t is the only positive cure ever discov-
cred for this disease, and it is also
the pleasantest method of treatment.
The outfit consists of an inhaler, a
medicine dropper and a bottle of Hy
omei: the total cost being $1.00. The
inhaler will last a lifetime, while for
treatment of catarrh a bottle of Hyomei
is sufficient for more than a months
use. Simply drop a little of the Hy-
omei into the inhaler and then breathe
it for a few minutes four or five times
day. The air filled with the balsamic
healing of Hyomei enters the air pas
sages and lungs, killing the disease
germs, soothing the irritated mem
branes and effecting a permanent cure
If a cure is not gained ask your drug
gist to return your money and he will
do it without question.
No fairer way of selling a medicine
was ever adopted by any one. You
ought to begin the use of Hyomei to-
day on this plan.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Another Busy Day Was Passed by the
Board.

The second day of the quarterly
meeting of the board of county com
missioners was devoted to little be-
sides auditing the regular accounts
presented by municipal courts. In adj
accounts came in from Waterville
municipal court and from E. c.
Stevens, trial justice, at Chelsea.
The petition of l.. A. Simpson and
others of Winslow for the narrowing OF
a street in the Hollingsworth neighbor-
hood was finally disposed of by the
granting of the prayer of the petition
ers. This is the case where it was
asked to have the street narrowed
from four rods to three and one-half
rods. 1t has for many years been q
bone of contention in the town.
The commissioners will go to Mon
mouth. May 1, to look at the proposed
road location from near the house of
Mrs. May Allen easterly to a point
near the house of w. ]. Greeley on the
road from Monmouth Center to Gardi-
ner The commissioners laid out a road
there. July 80, 1901. and it has never
been built. This time they go in an
of the location.
On May the commissioners will go
to Vienna to establish certain lost
bounds on the road from Vienna Viii
lage toward Mt. Vernon village. That
road was designated as a State road,
last year, and it becomes important to
have the bounds properly established.
While there they will look at the pro-
posed State road in Mt. Vernon, and
the location of the intended permanent
improvements. The Vienna State road
and the proposed Mt Vernon State
road are the same main Travelled high
way in two towns.

Of Increased Appropriations
$771,859.03 Accounted For.

The Journal has thus far shown that
of the 100000 or SO increased appro-
pria tions OF the last Legislative ses-
sion three quarters of the same was
granted to purposes of special impor-
lance. We are now able to show that
other appropriations were increased

State treasurer show marked in
crease. For 1900 and 1901 taxes the 10th
Legislature appropriated the sum OF
34S,927. while the list Legislature APP
propriated for 1902 and 1908 taxes the
sum of 73,927.06, an increase Of $24,-
523.5O.
Again, the appropriations of the rail-
road and telegraph tax due towns,
show a gain over the preceding two
years of $5S, 406.96. In 1901 the sum of
$67 .5S504 was appropriated for this pur-
pose, and for 1902 the sum of $685. 900
was appropriated This tax represents
the amount of the railroad and tele-
graph tax apportioned to cities and
towns on account of stock owned in
those towns. For 1903 the amount APP
portioned was $106,392 and for 1904 the
sum of $4,000 was set aside to cover
the apportionment for that year. The
latter item is estimated, as it is i'm
possible to tell just what each town will
be entitled to for that year. The total
amount appropriated by the LeglSla-
ture of 1901 for this purpose, therefore,
was $162,9S504, as against the sum of
1921, 1872 appropriated by the present
Legislature. gain of SIS, 406.96.
In addition to the above the amount

salaries of the Supreme court justices,
the Justice of Cumberland county SUI
perior court several county attorneys,
ana few other State officials were
increased to the amount of about $780,

$4,000 a year was appropriated for the

was set aside to pay for a commission
er to verify meridian lines, while $4,000
was appropriated for the purchase of
copies of the ancient deeds of York
county, the oldest county in the State.
For extra pay of soldiers in the Span
ish war and for testimonials to the
soldiers who served in that war the
sum of S2292 was appropriated.
These various items of increase show
total of $161, S2S.22. Added to the
items of increase already specified in
the Journal they make a grand total
of $171. 5000. or within reaching dis

During the past winter the fears of
an epidemic of smallpox in the lumber
ing camps of the northern part of the
State We're very grave. The State
Board of Health took prompt measures
to prevent the disease from spreading
and succe eded in combining it to few
places. So dangerous was the situation
that the Legislature early in the ses-
sion appropriated $4,000 as special cpl
iemic or emergency fund, and later APP
propriated $4,000 a year for two years
for the same purpose.
This epidemic scare has cost the
State of Maine good bit Of money.
since 1t started, last fall. In 1901 the
regular appropriation for epidemic or
emergency cases was $500. it being the
first appropriation of the kind ever
made. The expenditures from this
fund for that year amounted to only
$685. leaving q balance of S90665,
which was expended in 1902, save the
sum of S1.54 which lapsed into the
treasury The same sum was appro-
priated for 1902 and was all expended
with the exception of 10 cents.
Up to the present time the special
epidemic fund of $4,000 has been nearly
exhausted A balance of S60SS remains
If this appropriation, showing that the
sum of S4a39.12 has been expended since
the beginning of the year. In addition
to this amount there has been expended
from the regular $4,000 appropriation fol-
1903 the sum of s1955.16.
1t will be seen. therefore, that the
prevention of smallpox and other con-
tagious diseases has cost the State the
sum of s9S92.55 from the early part OF
| the year 1901 to the middle of this
| month, covering a period of about two
| years. The expenditures by years Were
as follows: 1901, s59S.35; 1902, $2404.92
! 1908 to April II, s6S9f2S.
At the present time there are few
| cases of smallpox in the State. showing
| that the work of the health officers ha.
been well done.
