cATARRH CURED BY DRY AIR.
Hyone Medicates the Air You Breathe,
Kills the Germs and Cures the Dis
ease.

Hyomei cures catarrh thoroughly
and permanently. because it reaches
the smallest air cells in the head, throat
and lungs, kills the germs causing the
disease and drives it from the system.
Hyomei goes to the root of the disease,
destroys the cause, and makes perma-
nent cures which can be effected in no
other way. Breathe it for few min
utes four times day and benefit will
be seen at once. Continue this treat
ment for few weeks and Hyomei will
have cured you.
The Hyomei in the inhaler furnished
with the outfit dries and sterilizes the
air you breathe. 1t is a local and d.
rect treatment for graduating all ca
tarrh germs in the mucous membrane
and tissues and in this way cures ca
tarrh in any part of the system. Used
in connection with Hyomel Balm 1T mas
been successful in curing the worst and
most deep seated cases of catarrhal
deafness.
A. w. Clark of Everett, Mass, writes,
Il have spent fortune on different
treatments for catarrh and could not
hear across the table. After using Hy-
omei and Hyomei Balm for eight days
l can hear as we'll as ever.'
Stronger than any claims that can
be made in an advertisement, is the
fact that Percy w. Means and Bow
ditch & Webster will give their per-
sonal guarantee with every Hyomei
outfit they sell Ia months treatment
for $1,000 to refund the money if the
purchaser can say that Hyomei has
not given satisfaction.

Thomas G. Field was down from
Waterville, Monday, to see his Augusta
friends. Mr.. Field says that if he were
rs years of age he would return to the
klondike in the spring, but it is a
little rough in that climate for a man
who has reached middle age. He spent
four and one-half years in the Sun
rise district bordering on the Behring
sea. The country there is well wooded
but the trees are small, it being rare
that one more than foot in diameter
at the butt could be found. or that
would yield board more than IL feet
III length. He wishes that the Rus
sian government would open eastern
northeastern Siberia to American min
ers, and says that if that were done it
would mean the developing of the
richest gold fields known.

The Murder of Gar Paul.

The nearest approach in modern
times to the recent Servian tragedy
was the murder of the Emperor Pau
of Russia, who was done to death b.
his mobiles March "a, 1901. He had
gone to bed in his accustomed man
ner, wearing his uniform, as well as
booted and spurred. He was awak-
ened in the night by hearing the
struggle between the sentry and the
mobiles, who, after dispatching the sol
der, burst into the emperor's room.
Paul begged for his life but all in
vain. He then tried to escape by the
window, cutting himself badly in the
attempt. He was dragged back and
for time kept his nine assailants at
bay by striking out with a chair
Then, after a terrible struggle, they
seized him and strangled him with
his own sash.

OUR BIG RAILROAD OF INDUSTRY
A Million and Quarter Workers anc

A Million and Quarter Workers and
Their Number Increasing.
The railroads in this country are
employing more persons than ever
before in their history. According to
statistics in the report of the Inter
state Commerce Commission there
were 594 railroad employees for every
hundred miles of tracks last year.
and there were 1888 employees al
together.
In the year before there were only
1,071 ,169 railroad employees, and the
average was only 54S for every hun
dred miles of line, so that independ.
emily of the increase in mileage the
number of workers employed has in
creased 46 for each hundred miles OF
line.
Since these statistics were collected
there has been Spondingly
large increase in the number of en-
plOyes, if railroad statisticians are to
be believed, so that the number of
men on the railroad payroll in this
country is considerably over a million
