PREVALENCE OF CATARRH.
Growing Use of Hyomei Will Soon
Show a Decrease of This Disease.

Statistics show that at least ninety
seven out of every 100 persons in New
York state are suffering from catarrh IN
some form. While the disease is one of
the most common with which the medical
profession has TO contend. it also is one of
the most dangerous. This is owing to its
tendency to affect the bronchial tubes.
causing consumption and other diseases
of the respiratory organs.
Prior to the discovery Of Hyomei, every
method of treatment for the cure of
catarrh had been found worthless. This
can be clearly proven by the weekly
statement published in every large city
by the board of health, showing a great
increase in the death rate from diseases
of the respiratory organs. and the start
fling growth in the number of persons
afflicted with such troubles.
The discovery of Hyomei and its in
creased use has already reduced the per-
centage of persons suffering from cAtarrh.
This wonderful remedy is the simplest
and most pleasant Of all treatments. Just
put a little Hyensi In the pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, breathe
through the inhaler for ten minutes four
times a day. Relief win be seen from
the first treatment; cure will soon fol-
low. II is the true treatment for diseases
OF the respiratory organs
Scientific and medical men recommend
in it that they guarantee a cure or they
will refund the money In this city nearly
every druggist selling it upon that PLAN
so that any of our readers can use
Hyomei without it costing them a cent
unless it cures. Can there be a fairer

MARRIAGE IN
COMMON LAW
Recognized by Probate Judge
Wilson in PuISOn Estate.
WIFE WILL GET PROPERTY
First Case ofItS Kind Ever De-
Cided in This County.
WIFE WILL GET PROPERTY

The first case in this county regarding
common law marriage was decided by
Probate Judge Wilson yesterday when
he announced that Mrs. Elizabeth Pull
son was the heir at law of August Pull
son. for many years a resident of this
county. Several years Mrs. Pulson Pc
titioned the district court of this coun-
ty for n decree of divorce. and it was
granted. Before the six months Statu-
tory limit had expired Mr. and Mrs.
Pulson began living together again. In
her motion Mrs. Pulson stated that sew
eral times her husband said that they
would be married again, but soon after
the~aecree was granted they moved TO
Texas and there both told their neighbors
that they were husband and wife. and
after this neither wanted TO have the
ceremony performed owing to the pub
licity.
August Pulson died in Texas He own
ed q farm northwest OF this city worth
5000. and some other property There
were no children, and Mrs. Pulson says
he has no near relatives in the old coun-
Try. There was a question at law on this
point. Several attorneys held that il
there were children Mrs. Pulson could
not claim any property under a common
law marriage.
Mrs. Pulson petitioned the probate court

Mr.. Voss is the friend of everybody.
and everybody is his friend who knows
him. He is as honest as the day is long
and a man of his extraordinary good
nature was never known to be insincere

Now, Mr.. Voss is a regular candidate
of the Republican party for the position
and it is conceded by everybody that he
should have it. He understands every de-
tail of its duties from experience as dep
uty and it is only right that he should
be given the full term of two years on
top of the six weeks or so of his in
cumbency of the office by appointment.
This is conceded to be reasonable by
everybody, and especially by business
men, who have always found in Mr.
Voss a faithful friend in all law bust
ness in which they were concerned.

Charley Hatcher's Body Found.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Granitsvllle,> April 6.-The
body of Charley Hatcher, the man
who disappeared from this town
on last Sunday night week ago
and who was supposed to have
been drowned in the pond, one
mile north of here, was discover
ed floating upon the surface of the
water this morn ing about 9
O'Clock by MIR. Jack Bryant, who
happened to be fishing in the pond
al the time.
The coroner held an inquest
over the body of Mr.. Hatcher at
II O'Clock today, but would not
give ont any statement or infor-
nation concerning the decision.
For reasons not known to the
public the jury deemed it best not
to give out final decision until
Wednesday.
The jury examined the body
closely, but could not find any
marks of violence that would in
dlcate that the victim had met
with foul play.
MIR. Hatcher had been drinking
considerably last Sunday night q
week ago and was also afflicted
with heart trouble, and 1t is the
general opinion that he wandered
to the pond in. order to take a
ride in his boat and fell over
board.
