GOT THEM MIXED.
The Colonel Woodman Story Probably
Due to Mistaken Identity.

y paragraph has been going the
rounds of the Maine press for the past
week 10 the effect that Col Ephraim w.
Woodman. who commanded the I'd
Maine Cavalry, and who has been car
ried on the roll of honor as deceased
since the close of the war. was alive
and wealthy citizen of Wilmington,
S. c. According to the story, Colonel
Woodman settled in the South at the
close of the war and it YVES supposed
that he had died soon after. Colonel
Woodman went to the front as lieuten-
ant colonel of the Sth Maine Volunteers
from which he resigned in the latter
part of '62 to assist in raising the I'd
Maine Cavalry, which was largely re-
crui;ed in this section. He served until
the end of the war, being mustered out
Dec. q. 1865. Colonel Woodman was
assigned to special duty as commander
of the 4th Brigade Cavalry and later
was in command of The department of
West Florida and Middle Florida.
The paragraph came to the notice of
Gee. r. Smith, register of deeds, and as
the I'd Maine Cavalry was his old regi-
ment. he was naturally interested to
learn the truth of the matter. Accord
ingly he addressed letter to Col. E. w.
Woodinan, and, Tuesday, received the
following letter in reply, which.
although it spoils romantic story. sets
at rest all doubt concerning Col. Wood
mans death. The text of the letter is
as follows:

The Secretary of the State Board of
Health has issued the following circular
letter to lumber operators in regard to
enforcement of the smallpox regu-
latiOns.
AT a late meeting of the State Board
of Health the secretary was instructed
to enter action against operators who
make no honest effort to comply with
the requirements of the special order of
September 12
THE secretary was at the same time
authorized to offer aid to operators so
far as possible in having unvaccinated
men who are already in camp vacci-
mated. 1t was thought that the board
might have this work done more
economically than the operators them
selves could.
For any operators who wish me to
do so. I will hire men at the lowest pos
sible rates compatible with good work.
rates as the board is able to get it. The
service of the vaccinators, it is hoped,
may not cost the operators more than
$500 day and expenses of travel and
subsistence, and l think l can guar
antee that it shall not cost more than
that.
Every case of smallpox or suspected
case in the lumber camps must be re-
ported promptly to the State Board of
Health. In emergencies of this kind the
State board will do all it can to help
operators to control the disease and
keep the men at work in the camps. 1t
will not, however, assume all of the cost
of caring for the sick nor the RESPONSE
bility for the occurrence of such out
breaks.
Many operators are having special
camps built near their main camps in
which men may be isolated who show
suspicious symptoms. Every operator
IS urged not to neglect to take this pre-
caution which may be taken at little
cost and might save an immense
amount of trouble and expense.
l enclose extracts from the special
order of the State Board of Health
which We're made last winter and which
are still in force
Yours truly,
A. G. YOUNG.
Secretary.

SIMPLY BREATHEIT
A Few Minutes Use Of Hyomei Four
Times Day Cures Catarrh.

The pleasantest, most convenient and
the only scientific method for the treat
ment and cure of catarrh is Hyomei.
Simply put twenty drops of Hyomei in
the inhaler that comes with every
minutes four times a day.
1t seems remarkable that so simple a
way of treating catarrh will effect a
cure, but the most important discover
les of science have 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 to 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 decided improvement and in a
short time there will be no further
trouble from catarrh. It's action il
rapid and lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
A complete outfit costs $1.0O, and if
after using you can say that it has not
helped you Bowditch & Webster. and
Percy w. Means, will return your mon
ey What other treatment for catarrh
is sold under guarantee like this?
