HYOMEl INDICATES AIR you
BREATHE.
Don't Drug the stomach to kin Catnrrh
Germs in the Head.

The only way in which catarrh of the
head and throat can be cured Is 10y
breathing air medicated with Hyomei.
This goes to the root of the disease and
kill. the bacilli of catarrh. II is as ridlc-
ulous to try and cure catarrh by taking
stomach medicine, as it would hc to try
and cure a burn by swallowing pill
The complete IIyomei outfit costs but
81 90 and consists of neat pocket inhal-
er. medicine dropper and, bottle OF
Hvomei. This will effect cure in
ordinary cases, but for chronic and deep
seated conditions, longer use is neces-
sary. and then extra bottles of Hyomei
can be obtained for SOC. This IS not
alone the best, it might be called the
only, method of curing catarrh, but 1t is
also the most economical.
DIR. w. II. Sheldon has so much conf
dence in the powers of Hyomei to cure
catarrh that ever since its Introduction
in Middlebury he has been selling 1t
under his personal guarantee to refund
the money if the purchaser could say
that it did not help. Although he has
sold hundreds of Hyomei outfits, yet he
has been called upon to refund the
money in only two instances. This re-
markable record places Hyomei upon
plane high above all other treatments
for catarrh. Dr. Sheldon will continue
to sell it under this guarantee, so that
YOU run no risk whatever in purchasing
Hyome. If it cures, the expense is
trifing; if it fails, the cost is absolutely
nothing

Paine'S Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Life Miserable.

Sick and nervous headaches are amongst
the worst ills of life. The man or woman who
is subject to headache at irregular intervals,
goes through life bearing load OF misery
and Indebtedness that is terrible to think
Of
Headaches as rule, result from dis
ordered condition of the nervous system.
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are exciting
causes. When the brain becomes tired and
debilitated, the whole nervous system is weak
ened, and headaches result If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
dcrangcd, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous sys-
TEN must be strengthened and vitalized.
The most persistent cases of headache, nervous
feebleness, and slecplessness are permanently
cured ly Pane's Celery Compound; it is the
great reconstructant Of the nervous system.
Mrs. Henry Westrck, St. Clair, Mich, tells
of her release from suffering as iollows:-

gathering seriousness "I sometimes dare to
hope that the production of The Little
Princess may always prove for somebody in
the audience little more than afternoons S

were born with an imagination, get it knocked
out of us before we are half grown up. We
forget there is another world than the dust dry
one we live in-the chiId's world. And this
child's world is sweeter and cleaner and lovelier
than ours, I'm sure. If people have forgotten
about it. there can be harm in reminding
them of it again. If they never go into it, even
teach them something about it And to arouse
sympathy for the common, unimagined joys and
sorrows Of childhood, l hope Sara and her

DUTY AND DESTINY of AMERICA
Rev. Hill Says it Should Place GOdli

Rev. Hill Says it Should Place GOdli-
ness First to Save II.
Sunday morning Rev. Harry G. Hill
preached at the First Christian church on
1.-THE Duties and Destiny of America" It
was home mission" day and he dwelt
particularly upon the faults and vices Of
the country and the means of saving 1t
from these things.
Eve all have" he said, "a great pride
in our country. When we are away from
home the great things and the fine things
hat the other peoples take pride in are
made the subjects of a comparison In our
own minds and re think that we have
things so much greater and so much finer
at home. This pride is natural, and yet,
II we knew 1t, a veritable heather coming
into our country would look with surprise
upon us and our manners of living and
governing.
"Our cities are the centers OF corrup-
ton; there is drunkenness, lewdness, thiev-
ing and killing. We cannot legislate
against it. We must make the minds OF
the people purer; we must teach then
to live clean lives.
"Our ideas of liberty are being sub
served by many Of the emigrants. They
think that license is liberty and no re-
straint is placed upon their license. Cap
ital and labor are engaged in a war Of
distrust and unfriendliness The two can
not believe in each other and they sub.
serve their own interests and desires tc
the detriment of the rest OF the citizens.
within a decade the crisis must come
TO this country. 1t will either leap for
ward and take that place among the ma
lions Of the world that its founders mean
1t to take. or else the idea of a govern.
ment of liberty will have. proved a delu'
sion. But whichever way 1t goes, we will
find that the period OF stress that this
country passes through will leave an in
delible mark upon the affairs Of the en-.
tire world. What we must do is to purif!
the country. Make Goodness first ant
have liberty without license, brotherly low
and not malicious distrust."
