by the specialist. in her statement that She
did not know how her trouble began. Weak
hearts are rs common as weak stomachs and
one may have q weak heart for years without

The Legislators and Editors Witt
Their Ladies the Guests.
A Brilliant Affair in Names Most
Beautiful Home.

Last evening the doors of the beauti-
full new home Of Governor and Mrs.
John F. Hill at the corner of State and
Green streets were first opened to a
public reception, and the occasion was
the social event of the winter for Au-
lgusta. The guests were the members
of the Legislature and the State of11-
Gals and heads of departments, to-
lgether with the members of the Maine
Press Association who have been, in
annual session here for the past two
days-these and their ladies-and the
total number to pass the doors was 49,.
1t was a brilliant and distinguished
company, representing every section OF
the State. The wives of the legislators
had come from their homes to attend
the reception and charming women in
beautiful costumes were no less in evil
Idence than the men prominent in State
affairs and Maine journalism.
Governor and Mrs. Hill received their
guests in the library at the left of the
spacious hall, Private Secretary N. S..
Purinton presenting them. Mrs. Hill
was attired in rich gown of dark
blue velvet with trimmings of point
lace, a regal hostess and the fit mis-
tress of the magnificent mansion. That
every guest had words of compliment
and congratulation to the host and
hostess on their new home, needs hard
ly be said. The whole house belonged
to the guests for the evening, and it
was a privilege that none failed to ap-
preciate. The reception was from 8
until II. and the stream of guests was
continuous.
In the dining room refreshments of
fancy ices, salads and cakes were
served by Weber, a Boston caterer
The billiard room in the basement was
utilized as the smoking room and was
"a NEST popular place with the gentle
men. while the library, reception room
and Railways were thronged the whole
evening. During the latter part of the
evening the dainty ball room on the
third floor was the most popular part
of the house. Dennis orchestra of
seven pieces. which gave a concert
earlier in the evening on the second
floor hallway, took it's place in the lit
tie balcony and an informal dance of a
dozen numbers was thoroughly enjoy
led. Following are the selections rem

DO NOT DOSE THE STOMACH.
Cure catarrh by Natures Own Method
Every Breath of Hyomei Brings
Relief,

Nearly every one who has catarrh
it by drugging the stomach. Temper
airy relief may be given, but cure sell
dom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure catarrh
would be to have a change of climate !;
but now with Hyomei you can carry a
health giving climate in your vest
pocket and by breathing it few min
utes four times a day soon cure your
SELF
The complete outfit of Hyomei costs
but $1.0O and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
a medicine dropper and bottle of Hy-
omei. The inhaler lasts a lifetime,
and there is enough Hyomei for more
than months treatment of catarrlr.
1t one bottle does not cure, an extra
bottle of Hyomei can be obtained for
SO cents. 1t is the most economical of
all remedies advertised for the cure of
catarrh, and is the only one that fol-
lows nature in her method of treat
ing diseases of the respiratory organs.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch &
webster have sold hundreds of Hyomei
outfits and the more they sell, the more
convinced they are that they are per-
tectly safe in guaranteeing to refund
the money if Hyomei does not cure
Those who are subject to catarrh or
catarrhal colds will do themselves an
injustice if they do not purchase Hy-
omei outfit at once so as to be pre-
pared for the sudden changes of the
season.

act. The bill provides that where per-
Sonal injury is caused to an employe
who is in the exercise of due care and
diligence at the time damages may be
obtained. If the injury results in the
death of the employee, and such death
is not instantaneous, or is preceded
by conscious suffering. and if there is
any person who would have been en-
titled to bring an action the legal rep
resentative of said employee may, in
the action brought under the provis-

scious suffering, his widow or, if he
leaves no widow, his next of kin, who,
at the time of his death, were Gepen-

have right of action for damages
against the employer. If damages are
awarded for the death they shall be
assessed with reference to the degree
of culpability of the employer or of the
person for whose negligence the
employer is liable. The amount of
damages which may be awarded for
injury in which no damages for death
are awarded shall not exceed $4,000.
