Only one disCOrdant note was heard

his work Among some of the leading

the priority claim Of Professor Calkins.

Professor Calkins led up TO his an

research ir. the lower orders of life IN
bald detail he set forth how he had
watched the growth of inhnitesimal

UNITED STATES NAVY LEAGUE.

There has recently been organized
in the United States a Navy league,
whose object Is to secure navy com

public attention TO our naval stantS &
relatively to the navies Of the world,
and to create public opinion on the
question of naval increase that Will
react favorably upon congress when

Leagues of this kind already exist in
England, France. Germany and Ilaly,
and in every case they are non partisan
and possess no political significance
whatever. AS an instance OF the work
done by similar organizations in other
countries, we may take the ease of
Germany, where the impetus given
during the past few years to naval af-
fairs is attributed largely to the in
tuenee Of the naval league, in which
the German emperor himself is an in

A Few Minutes Use Of Hyomei Four
Times a Day Cures catarrh.

The pleasantest, most convenient,
and the only scientific method for the
treatment and cure of ca,arrh is Hy-
omei. Simply put twenty drops of Hy-
|omei IN the inhaler that comes with
every package and then breathe 1t for
a few minutes four times a day.
1t seems remarkable that so simple
a. way OF treating catarrh will effect
a cure, but the most important dis
coyeries of science nave always been
the simplest. BY breathing Hyomei
In this way every particle of air that
enters the air passages of the throat
and head and goes into the lungs is
charged with a healing balsam that
kills the germs and bacilli of catarrh
and soothes and allays all irritation.
The first days use OF Hyomei will
show a decided improvement and In a
short time there will be no further
trouble from catarrh. Its action ia
rapid and lasting.
You take no risk In buying Hyomei
A complete outfit costs $1.00, n If,
after using, you a say that 1t has
not helped you, your druggist will re-
t,,rn your money. What other treat
ment for catarrh is sold under a guar
iantee like this? None other has sui,
