HAY FEVER'S CONQUERoR
Breathe Hyomei and Escape This
Dreaded Summer Visitor.

By the use of Hyomei, you can save
an expensive trip to the mountains and
escape weeks of suffering This remark
able remedy for the cure of hay fever,
kills the germs of the disease, soothes
and heals the irritated mucous mem
brane, if used two OF three weeks before
the time of the usual appearance of hay
fever will prevent the attack.
The complete Hyomei treatment con.
sists of neat pocket inhaler, through
which Hyomei 10 breathed, bottle of
Hyomei, and medicine dropper. The
air taken into the lungs in this way Is
filed with healing balsams and forms a
perfect safeguard against attacks of hay
fever or rose cold
Those who have had hay fever, know
how little help can be gained by stomach
dosing in this disease. Hyomei is the
only scientific yet common sense treat.
ment for the trouble.
Ii is easy enough for any one to say
that a remedy will give satisfaction, but
Frank w. Buchanan. Fred FL. Wing and
G.. r. Fogg offer to refund the money if
Hyomei does not do all that is claimed
for 1t, certainly inspires faith in the
treatment.
Hyomei really gives you in your own
home, a change of climate, ard hay fever
sufferers know from past experience that
this has been the only thing that afford
ed them relief. By breathing Hyomei a
few times daily. you can save the expense
and trouble of mountain trip and avoid
all danger of hay fever.

New Idea In Servant Problem.

Some enterprising Americans, now
resident In London, have hit on a new
idea looking to the solution of the do
mestic servant problem. In an apart
ment house recently erected according
to their design there are suits of
rooms for the exclusive use of the
servants, where they may retire for
recreation or in which they may re-
ceive friends. These rooms, which are
described as being bright, cheerful and
well furnished, consist of bedrooms,
excellently appointed bath rooms, a re
ception room and II library in which
current literature abounds. This sur
prising effort to secure the content
ment of the help" and thus to obviate
too frequent applications for evenings
out, as well rs the constant recurrence
of that horror known as giving no.

Oriental Weddings.

AT wedding festivals in Arabia, Per-
sia and Morocco the women guests hold
carnival all day. sometimes several
days, but the poor little bride is in II
room by herself fasting. She is being
decorated" Depilatories and tweezers
remove all superiluous hair. She is
scrubbed with pumice stone; her toes,
fingers and hair are stained with hen
ma, and her face is daubed with red and
bits of gold paper. An oriental maiden
has no voice in the selection of her hus-
band. She seldom sees him till she is his
wife. and he is not supposed to see her
face until she unveils after marriage.
Sometimes Cupid gets ahead Of parents
and guardians, the wind" blows the
veil aside, and the young eyes meet.
Then there is some anxious maneuvCr-
ing that the elders may make the right
selection.

A little black boy sat on the soap

His fingers chung together when he at

of silky sweetness were spun about
