STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF
FAITH.
Clark & Co. Guarantee that
will Cure the Worst
Caso of Catarrh in Paris.

When ons Of the most reputable COLI
Germs in Paris guarantees that medi-
cine will effect cure or they will re-
fnnd The money, it speaks volumes as to
the merits of that remedy. 1t is in this
way that. Clark & Co. are selling Hyomel,
the treatment that has made 30 many
remarkable cures of both acute and
chronic catarrh in Paris and vicinity.
Hyomei is not pill nor is it IN
LIQUID that has 10 be taken with
tablespoon or wineglass. Just breathe
it by the aid of an inhaler that comes
in every ontfit and benefit will be seen
from the first treatment.
1t destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purifies the blood with additional ozone.
It cures catarrh of the head and throat,
or of the stomach, liver and kidneys.
Wherever mucus membrane contains
catarrhal germs. there Hyomei will do
its work of healing. When using this
treatment, the air you will be found
like that on the mountains high above
the sea level, where grows balsamlc
trees and plants which make the air
pure by giving off volatile and sntisep-
tic fragrance that is healing to the
respiratory organs.
A complete Hyomei outtt costs but
ST. 90, and includes an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks
treatment
Remember that if Hyomei does not
cure you Clarke & Co will refund your
money. This is good time to cure
catarrh by this natural method and pre-
vent catarrh all colds that are so common
at this season.

MiIliOnaires Poor Stomach.

The WORKOUT stomach of the over-fed
millionaire is often paraded in the public
prints as a horrible example of the evils
attendant on the possession of great
wealth. But millionaires are not the
only ones who are afflicted with bad
stomachs. The proportion eis far
greater among the toilers. Dyspepsia
and indigestion are rampant among
these people, and they suffer far worse
tortures than the millionaires unless
they avail themselves Of a standard
medicine like Green's August Flower,
which has been favorite household
remedy for all stomach troubles for
over thirty years. August Flower
rouses the forbid liver, thus creating ap-
petite and insuring perfect digestion.
It tones and vitalizes the entire system
and makes life worth living, no matter

In the first opening of Oklahoma
to settlers in 1850. the editor ol this
paper was among the many seek
ers after fortune who made the big
race one fine day in April. During
his travelling about and afterwards
his camping upon his claim, he en-
countered much bad water, which,
together with the severe heat. gave
him very severe diarrhoea which
it seemed almost impossible to
check, and along in June the case
became so bad that he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of
Chamherlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope.
A big dose was given him while he
was rolling about on the ground in
great agony, and IN a few minutes
the dose was repeated. The coed
effect of the medicine was soon no.
ticed and within an hour the pa
tient was taking his first Gun d
sleep for a fortnight. The one little
bottle worked a complete cure, and

The following from t h e.
Charlotte Observer shows
that E. Spencer Blackburn,
the erstwise Congressman
from this district and would
be candidate for the same
thing again, is lstill floating
around and has not yet "lit"
though he does come to this
place occasionally to look al
ter his "citizpnship."
Where is the home of ex-
Congressman E. s pence r
Blackburn? This is a ques-
tion that is agitating many
Republicans.
Mr.. Blackburn lived in the
eighth district when he was
elected to Congress-, and he
considered WilkesborO h i $
home.
Does Mr.. Blackburn con-
slider Wilkesboro his hore
now? This is a question that
is agitating many Republl>
cans.
Mr.. Blackburn has a | a W
office in Greensboro, which is
in the fifth congressional dis
tricict. Does Mr.. Blackburn
intend to continue his resi-"
dence in Greensboro, and yet
run for Congress in "de ait?'
IT'S a question that ia agita
ting many republicans.
When Mr.. Black burn arriy
ed here the other day anC
walked to the register in th'
Bufort Hotel he was ieal
ously watched by a few ofth'
faithful who thought that a
last the mooted question
would be solved.

WASH INGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspond ent.

The Postoffice investiga

speed as the Postmaster Gen

support of this paper was re-
garded az more OF less essen-

lly Hanna asked Heath to ap
point Mrs. Winans to a posi-
ton in the Postoffice Depart
mept, and Heath did 30, but
Mrs. Winans was given no
work, her only duty being to
drow her salary. She seri-
ousIy objected to the contin>
ued drawing of pay without
the perfor nance OF any work
) in return and "pestered' Mr..
Heath until he told her she
was Il nuisance. Then s h e
, took her case to Hanna and
he wrote Heath. he would
have to give Mrs. Winans
something to do, but this ne
" failed to do, and finally Mrs,
Winans, who is an exception
ally clever woman, took a
civil service examination and
secured an appointment in
the Pension Office, a position
she now holds. This is but a
