FLEEcIIa THE NEGROES.

When 1t comes to genuine graft. the white race has no monopoly, for there are some shrewd negroes who have eyes as keen for good thing as any white man has. We are continually reading of schemes devised and managed by negroes, ostensibly for the good of their race, but really for the benefit of those who work the ropes. Added to the lack of percep- tion in the average negro is the fact that they are among the most sulleless of all beings and can be taken in and done for" by any slick-tongued scoundrel who wants to bleed them.
 One of the latest schemes we have seen referred to is that of certain sharp col ored brethren who propose to tax each member of the race in the United States a stated sum of 41 cents for the purpose of providing a beneficiary fund" This Is a small sum, 1t is true, but as there are now about 10000 900 negroes in the United States 1t will be seen that the tax, if paid, would amount to very near s5o.- 100000 year, which would hardly be ealed a trine. even in the day of large figures. It would form a very comfortable beneficiary fund" for those who are working the scheme. They are the only ones who would be likely to derive any benefit from it. The whole thing is a graft.
 All true friends of the colored race, those to whom the negroes will listen and it matters not whether 1t is their white friends or their colored teachers and leaders-but all should warn them against schemes like this one and many others which have no other object than robbing the race. for that Is what 1t amounts to. As before stated, the aver age uneducated negro is the easiest mark that any swindler can tackle. Lacking the peFceptive and analytical power to in- vestigate and understand any proposition which promises handsome returns they go into 1t and pay over their money. only to find that they have again been robbed Friends of the negroes ought to instruct them that any proposition. whether made by white or black. which promises them large returns for small investments is a swindle. White men are often caught, 1t is true, but negroes are the favorite vic tims of the grafter and they should be constantly warnsd against such vMltures

CAUSES OF Hay FEVER.
Hyomei the only cure--oives Change
of Climate In Your Own Home.

Hyomei the Only cure--olves Change
of Climate In Your own Home.
Fifty years ago hay fever had not
been named, but undoubtedly people
suffered then as they do now with
storms of sneezing. profuse watering
of the eyes. excessive running at the
nose. intense smarting and itching
and stuffed up feeling in the head.
The direct causes appear to be
heat. dust and the pollen Of flowers. Al
though hay fever may appear at any
season of the year, It is most common
and severe in August, and preventive
treatment should be adopted some
weeks before the time the disease is
due.
Prior to the discovery OF the re-
markable effects following the use OF
Hyomei. the only treatment that gave
relief to hay fever sufferers was
change of climate. The use of Hyo
mel enables anyone to breathe air at
home which is like that of the Adiron
dacks, the White Mountains or other
health resorts where healing balsams
fill the air with natures germ destroy
er, ozone.
Those who are subject to hay fever
should begin the use Of Hyomei a
once and thus prevent the disease
An ounce of prevention is worth more
than a pound Of cure in the treatmen
OF hay fever.
The City Drug Store has seen tn,
good effects following the use o
Hyomei in all diseases Of the respira
tory organs, and is willing to sci
Hyomei to any hay fever sufferer wit
the understanding that II it does nc
give satisfaction, the treatment wi
cost nothing.
