HEROIC WIDOW
GIvESUP STRUGGLE
Her Only Regret Is That She
Must Leave Her Well
Nigh Helpless Son
THEIR CONDITION is PIIIFUL
Mother Who Worked Hard All Winter,
lll-clad and lnsuffioiently Nourished,
suecumbs to Disease and Awaits
Death Calmly.

The widow of Joseph Diclerson has
made hard struggle against fate all
her life. Now She has succumbed, and
is awaiting the coming Of the grim
reaper in her poor little home in the
rear of No. 226 Seventh avenue, in
that part of the city known as Brown
town.
Uncompromising poverty has dogged
the footsteps of Mrs. Dickerson all her
lfe. She has never known anything
life. Since the death of her husband.
several years ago, she has worked hard
to keep the wolf from her door and to
provide sustenance fer herself aud her
son. He is a paralytic and unable to
work, so the burden of his support has
fallen upon his mother. And she has
worked very hard. Every morning this
winter che has arisen at 4 o'clock to 20
to the home of the family for whom she
worked. She was insufficiently clad at
all times, even on the coolest January
days her clothing being of thin calico
and muslin. But she was not OF the
lcomplainins sort. and people who
would have been eager to help her
had they known her need, remained in
ignorance Of 1t.
Mother and son occasionally attend
ed the Harvesters' Mission, at Front
and Jefferson streets. One night early
in the week the boy was noticed there
alone, and to an inquiry made regard
ing his mother, replied that she was
sick. Late that night worker in the
1 mic of kr t...I LII
home, was impelled to go 10 the home
of the widow Dickerson- There he
found a pitiful state Of affairs. There
WAS not a bed In the house, and the
sick woman had lain for FIVE days upon
Ia lounge. She rs suffering with ty-
phOid-pneumonla. and there was little
warmth and no food in the house. nhc
boy had said nothing OF their stress.
He had never known anything else. and
accepted it with a patient resignation.
The Mission worker reported the
case TO other workers, who now are
doing what they can to alleviate The
distress of mother and son. A physician
was procured and suitable underclOth-
ing and a bed for the mother Food
was provided for the boy. and sister
Of Mrs. DicKerson has been found to
look after them. But the sister is old
and infrm. and the state Of affairs in
that wretched little home is deplorable.
The doctor gives no hope Of the recov-
cry of Mrs. Dickerson, as her system is
! so nun down by lack Of n0urishine
food and exposure. She knows that her
end is near, and her only anxiety is
for her son.

HYomei The Latest Scientific Discovery
For The Cure Of Oatarfh.

The discovery of Hyomei has
wrought q wonderful change in the
treatment of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medi-
cines ordinarily employed in the cure
of this disease were nauseating drugs
and worthless toDics. In some IN
stances they benefited, but the inn
provement was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air
passages of the throat and head bal
samic air that goes to the minutest
cells, effectually killing all germs ana
microbes of catarrh. IL enters the
blood with the oxygen. killing the
germs in the blood, and restores
health To the whole system. Many as
tonishing testimonials have been re-
ceiyed from those who have been cur
ed by Hyomei.
N. g. Durham, % Wellington ST.,
Boston, Mass, writes: Il have sur
fered from catarrh for number OF
years. / have tried Hyomel, and
found it the only cure for this disease
ever used"
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to doubters Is the fact
that Feldmeyer Bros. have so much
faith in Hyomei that they sell every
package under a positive guarantee TO
refund the money il it does not cure
Now is the time to begin the use
of Hyomei.
