STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF FAITH.
Frank w. Bucknam's Guarantee
That hyomeI WIlIsCure the Worst
Case OF oatarrh In skowhegan.


When one of the most reputable con.
Germs in Skowhegan guarantees that q
medicine will effect cure or he will re
fund the money, it speaks volumes as to
the merits of that remedy. 1t 10 in this
way that F. w. Bucknam Is selling Hy-
omei, the treatment that has made SC
many remarkable cures of both acute and
chronic cases of catsrrh in Skowhegan
and vicinity.
Hyomei is not pill nor Is 1t liquid
that has to be taken with n tablespoon
or wineglass. Just bresthe 1t by the aid
of an inhaler that comes in every outfit
and benefit will be seen from the first
treatment.
1t destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and pu-
rifles the blood with additional ozone.
II cures catarrh of the head and throat,
or of the stomach, liver and kidneys
Wherever mucous membrane contains
catarrhal germs. there Hyomei will do
its work of healing. When using this
treatment, the air you breathe will be
found like that on the mountains high
above the sea level, where grow balssm-
ic trees and plants which make the air
pure by giving off volatile antiseptic fra
GRANGE that is healing to the respiratory
organs.
Remember that II Hyomei does not
cure you, f. w. Buchanan will refund
your money This is good time to cure
catarrh by this natural method and pre-
vent catarrhal colds that are 30 common
at this season.

The Life of a Piano de-

A Piano which is made up
cheaply just to catch trade by
low price, is practically dead
in a very short time; it be-
comes then just a bundle of

SHARPENING OF sABERs.
The Secretary of War Announces That It Is Not a Violation of
 the Laws of War.


 The question has come before the war department whether the sharp ening of sabers is a violation of any law, or custom of war, or of the Geneva convention. The inquiry came from Capt. Le Roy Eltinge, Fifteenth caval- ry, now at Siassi, P. l., says a Wash ington report.
 That officer reports we'll circulated opinion among officers that it is not permissible to grind sabers when fight ing civilized enemy. The judge ad- vocate general of the army found nothing which brings the character of this inquiry within the exception of paragraph SAT of the army regulations, and the secretary of war announced that the sharpening of sabers is not a violation of the laws of war nor of any of the conventions which have been accepted by the United States, either expressly or by implication for the government of it's military forces when engaged in actual military operations.
 The Geneva convention and it's modi- fication relate to the care and dneutrali- zation of the sick and wounded in time of war.

In from the country, and in the shops
 Rossiter saw a number of faces that he recalled from his old college
 days. After having liquidated the small debt he owed Becraft, he in vested in a pair of stout shoes at 8 sale that chanced to be in pSogress, and also in a cheap razor and few toilet articles. He then had exactly dime remaining.
 "Just enough for two beers!" he exclaimed, pitching the little silver disk into the air and catching it as it descended.
 Joe protested against his spending his last cent, but Rossiter insisted that it was ''his treat,' so thet two went into the bar room of the Hin tonville House, where the desired beverage was speedily forthcoming. As Rossiter placed his empty glass upon the bar a bacchanalian college

TOWELS MUST BE CLEAN.
New Rules Adopted Governing the
Conduct Of Barber Shops.

Conduct Of Barber Shops.
Hereafter patrons of the barber shop
viii be wiped with clean towels. A
towel which has once been used for
washing the windows or for hopping
someone else's grime-stained brow IS
prohibited from use. The clean towel
is one of the new rules and regulations
of the state board of examiners or
BARRIERS. Razors also come in for
share Of attention. Before using, the
razor must be dipped in alcohol or a
"copper" cent solution OF fOrmaldehyde.
The rules do not specify what shall be
done with the alcohol after 1t has done
time as a razor solvent, but it can be
made to work overtime and do duty
IL a lamp.
Brushes are to have a comb and a
hot shampoo with soap and water after
the days work is done. and combs
must have a hot water bath before
they are put away for the night.
Needles. tweezers and other instru-
ments of torture used in the average
barber shop must be disinfected in an
alcohol flame before they are used II
is presumed that the customer Will
know from the sense of touch whether
the Instruments are too hot or have
been held in, the flame too long.
Astringents used for stopping the
hemOrrhage after the barber has dis
hlembered an ear or a section of Gu
ticle must be in HQuod or powder form
The old style of making the wound still
deeper by rubbing it with a sharp piece
Of alum is out of date and prohibited
by the rules There are also rules
against shaving persons with affections
Of the skin unless they have sep
arate cup, brush and razor
These rules have been promulgated
by the state board of examiners of
BARRIERS created by the last legislature,
and have the approval Of the state
board Of health. They will be posted
in all barber shops.
