DO NOT DOSE The STOMACH
Cures Catarrh by Natures Own Method
Every Breath Of Hyonei Brings Relief.

Nearly every one who has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and cure
it by drugging the stomach. Temporary
relief may be given, but a cure seldom
comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure catarrh
would be to have change of climate;
but now with HyomeI you can carry a
health giving climate in your vest pock-
ct and by breathing it a few minutes
four times a day soon cure yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.00 and consists of an inhaler that can
be carried in the vest pocket, a medicine
dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. The
inhaler lasts a lifetime, and if one bot
tie does not cure, an extra bottle of
Hyomei can be obtained for so cents
1t is the most economical of all rene
dies advertised for the cure of catarrh
and is the only one that follows nature
in her method of treating diseases of the
respiratory organs.
Geo. W. Stansdeld, druggist, 632 Kan
sas avenue, has sold a great many
Hyomei outfits and the more he sells,
the more convinced he is that he is per-
fectly safe in guaranteeing to refund
the money if Hyomei does not cure.

STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF FAITH.
Geo. w. StansfieId Guarantees That
HyOmei Will Cure the Worst Case
CatarrIl in Topeka.

When one of the most reputable con-
Germs in Topeka guarantees that a
medicine will effect cure or he will
refund the money. it speaks volumes as
to the merits of that remedy. 1t is in
this way that Geo. w. Stansfeld is
selling Hyomei. the treatment that has
made SO many remarkable cures Of
both acute and chronic catarrh in To-
peka and vicinity.
Hyomei is not pill nor is it liquid
that has to be taken with TABLESPOON
or wheglass. Just breathe it by the aid
OF an inhaler that comes in every out
ut and bene5t will be seen from the

1t destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purifies the blood with additional ozone.
1t cures catarrh of the head and throat,
or OF the stomach, liver and kidneys.

CURES CATARRH
"HyOmei the Most Wonderful Cure
for Catarrh Ever Discovered, Saws
Geo. w. StansfieId.

DO not try to cure catarrh by tax
ing drugs into the stomach; it cannot
be cured in that manner. The only
way in which this too common disease
can be cured is through a direct appIi
cation that will kill the baciIli of ca
tarrh and prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method
of treatment that accompIishes this. IT
Is the simplest, most pleasant, and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that has
ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimo-
mails have been received from the most
prominent men and women in the
country who have been cured by this
remarkable remedy. Ministers, bank
ers. lawyers, even eminent physicians
rave given strong testimonials as to fine
remarkable powers of Hyomei to cure
catarrh
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$l-OO, consisting of an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei to last several
weeks This will effect a cure in ordin-
ary cases, but for chronic and deem
seated cases of catarrh, longer use may
be necessary, and then extra bottles Of
Hyomei can be obtained for Soc 1t is
not alone the best lit might be called
the onlyD method of curing catarrh
but 1t is also the most economical
Geo. w. Stansfield has so much con-
incidence in the power of Hyomei to
cure catarrh, that he will for limited
time, sell this medicine under his per-
sonal guarantee to refund the money if
the purchasers can say that it did not
help them.

co BACK TO WORK
President Buchanan Again Con-
Eenes the Iron Workers:
Has Not Yet Had Chance to De-
liver Address.

Kansas City Mo, Sept. 26.-President
Frank Buchanan of the International
Bridge and Structural Iron workers
again assumed the chair this morning
and called the annual convention to
order. He had issued a call last night
for a meeting today in continuation of
turbulent session which he adjourned
without hour yesterday noon.
Before entering the convention which
is still being held behind closed DOORS
Mr.. Buchanan refused to discuss any
phase of the situation. Yesterday at his
hotel he had declared that the session
presided over by the Parks crowd,
which had unseated Delegate Brophy
holding proxy from Scranton, was I'M
constitutional and it naturally was as
sumed that he would so hold when he
should call the convention to order in
regular session today. There were early
be Stubbornly fought by the Parks ele-
ment, and Samuel Parks said before
he led his delegation into the convention
this morning:
Our acts yesterday were proper and
they will stand. If President Buchanan
refuses to abide by them the convention
will go on without him."
1t had been stated that J. w. Keller,
a member of local union No. of New
York City, would be expelled from the
union for refusing to vote yesterday to
unseat Brophy, and when this action
was taken he would no longer be en-
titled to sit in the convention. Mr..
Parks is credited with having sent the
New York local officials telegram to
this effect, requesting that Keller be
expelled at tonight's meeting of the
union in New York. Today, however,
he denied that he had sent such tele-'
gram and said:
Mr.. Keller will continue to sit in
this convention. If he is ousted from
the union it will be in regular way after
We return fO New York.
Although this is the sixth day of the
convention it has not yet formally OF
ganized and the annual address of
President Buchanan which was on the
programme for Tuesday can not be
heard until the fight over credentials Is
completely out of the way.
The regular order of business TINS
morning from the standpoint of the Bu-
chanan element was the consideration or
the written protest filed on Wednesday
evening against Delegate Daniel Brophy
which demanded that the first vote OF
the convention seating Brophy be re-
considered.

BISCOE'S GOOD RECORD.
Topeka Man Makes Excellent Show

Friday afternoon several members of
the Topeka Gun club met at the
grounds east of town to engage in
shoot at live pigeons furnished by A. }.
Palmer. and a programme of % birds
per man was arranged. In many re-
spects the meeting was unique. The
conditions were against good scores.
The wind blew a gale, making the
shooting extremely hard. The birds
old strong ones-left the traps when
released like streaks of lightning. Inc
most iptapSe. interest Was taken IN
every shot, each shooter in his turn
was closely watched, and the result
of his shot eagerly noted. Handicapped
by the hard conditions, therefore, the
gunner who made "a good score might
