HAYFEvER's CONQUERoR
Breathe HyOmeI and Escape This Dreaded
Summer Visitor.

Summer Visitor.
BY the use of Hyomei, you can save
an expensive trip to the mountains
and escape weeks of suffering. This
remarkable remedy for the cure of
hay fever, kills the germs of disease,
sOothes and heals the irritated mu-
cous membrane, if used two or three
weeks before the time of the usual
appearance of hay fever will prevent
the attack.
The complete Hyomei treatment
consists of n neat pocket inhaler,
through which Hyomei is breathed, Il
bottle of Hyomei, and medicine
dropper. The air taken into the
lungs in this way is filled with heal
ing balsams and forms perfect safe
guard against attacks of hay fever or
rose cold.
Those who have had hay fever,
know how little help can be gained
by stomach dosing in this disease.
Hyomei is the only scientific yet com
mon sense treatment for the trouble.
1t is easy enough for any one to
say that remedy will give satisfac-
ton, but L. H. Thomas offer to re
fund the money if Hyomei does not
do all that is claimed for it. certainly
inspires faith in the treatment.
Hyomei really gives you in your
own home, change of climate, and
hay fever sufferers know from past
experience that this has been the only
thing that afforded them relief BY
breathing HyUmei few times daily.
YOU can save the expense and trouble
of mountain trip and avoid all dam
ger of hay fever.

 The correspondent of the Associated Press to-day called the foreign officers at- tention to the statement made yesterday by Arthur DeBrigard. the Colombian con sul general in New York that the Colom- bians were clamoring for German pro- tectorate over their country and that the Colombian government had asked to send a commission to Germany to offer Elm peror William certain pieces of land on both seas in return for Germany's. pro- tection. The reply was:
 We have heard nothing on the sub ject, but if a commission comes with such a proposition 1t would not be en- tertained for one moment We have no intention of mixing ourselves in the af- fairs of the Isthmlan States. We are stlll without any communication from our consul representatives in regard to the resolution or asking protection, hence we have omitted to ask the United States to look after German interests. The statements regarding our commercial in- terests in Colombia and Panama have been much exaggerated. but we hope to see our trade there prosper better after the United States buiIds the canal''
