FORREST CITY GIRL
 COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Failed to Meet Her Affianced Who Forthwith Broke Engagement Grief Prompted Sui
 eide.

Forrest City, Feb. 20.-Miss Nellie Smith was found in her room at home in this city today by her father when he went home to dinner with terri ble pistol shot wound in her head, which must have caused instant death.
 The servant last saw her about II o'clock, when she was writing letters.
 She was the beautiful and accom- plished daughter of G. B. Smith, who recently came here and started a stave factory, a branch of Paducah (Ky.) factory.
 The affair caused profound sensa- tion. Miss Smith was the idol of a fond father. She was in the flower of young womanhood, being p years of age, and the only solution of the trag- edy is that it was love affair. Her affianced passed through here going to Hot Springs and she was to have met him at the train, but failed to do so, and he broke the engagement, which had a terrible effect on her mind.
 The remains will be shipped to Jackson, Mich, where it is said her mother and sisters reside. The coro- ner's jury rendered a verdict of sui eide, being unable to find any other plausible solution.

HF0mei The Latest scientific Dissolve J
For The Cure Of 0atarrh.
The discovery Of Hy0mei has
wrought . wonderful change in the
treatment Of cafarrh.
Prior TO three years ago the medi-
cines ordinarily employed In the cure
Of this disease were nauseating drugs
and worthless fonics. In some in
stances they benefited. but the inn
provement was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air
passages Of the throat and head bal
samic air that goes to the minutest
cells, effectually killing al germs and
microbes Of catarrh. Ii enters the
blood with the oxygen, killing the
germs In the blood, and restores
health to the whole system. Many as-
tonishing testimonials have been re-
ceived from those who have been cur
ed by Hyomei.
N. g. Durham, 20 Wellington St.,
Boston, Mass, writes: Il have SUI
fered from catarrh for a number of
years. / have tried Hyomei, and
found 1t the only cure for this disease
ever used"
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to d0ubters Is the fact
that Feldmeyer Bros. have SO much
faith in Hyomei that they sell every
package under q positive guarantee TO
refund the money II 1t does not cure.
Now is the time to begin the use
Of Hyomei.
