SIMPLE REMEDY FOR
CATARRH.
just Breath Hyomei Four Times Day and
be Cured.

Just Breath Hyomei Four Times Day and
be Cured.
If few years ago some one had said
you can cure catarrh by breathing air
charged with a healing balsam, the idea
would have been ridiculed and it re-
manned for that eminent investigator, R.
T. Booth, to discover in Hyomei this
method of cure.
Hyomei has performed almost miracu-
lous cures of catarrh and is today recog-
nized by leading members of the medical
profession as the only advertised remedy
that can be relied upon to do just what
it claims. The complete outfit of Hyo-
mf costs but 81. 90 and consists of an
inhaler, medicine dropper and bottle
of Hyomei.
Breath Hyomei through the inhaler
for few minutes four times a day and
it will cure the worst case of catarrh.
1t soothes and heals the mucous menu
brane of the air passages, prevents irri-
tation, and effects a complete and lasting
cure.
In Middlebury there are scores of well
known people who say they have been
cured of catarrh by Hyomei If it does
not cure you, w. II. Sheldon with return
the money you paid for Hyomei. This
is the strongest evidence that can be
offered as to his faith in the remedy.

News Items Wanted.

This paper is at all times glad to re-
ceive items of news for publication, and
will print with pleasure the arrival of
guests from distant towns. 1t is fire.
quently the case that by chronicling the
arrival of guests, the newspaper can
render pleasant bit of service to many
old friends and acquaintance who will
be interested to know that they are in
town, and will thus make it point to
call, and hosts may with propriety re-
quest the Register to print such items
for them. All this paper asks, however,
is that the name be signed to written
communications, not for publication,
but as guarantee of good faith.
1t is also probable that in many fam
lilies there are ancient articles whose
origin dates back more than 100 years.
We would be glad to mention such relics
together with brief history of them.

The signed bond gives you DR.. Shell
don's receipt for the money and is his
agreement to refund it if you find that
Mona does not give an increase in
weight and absolute freedom from stom-
ach troubles.
Look into the faces of the men and
women of Middlebury and see how large
proportion have grown thin and hag-
gard before their time. What these
people need is Mona, the flesh-forming
food, restorer of health and strength
to the digestive organs.
The guarantee bond that DR.. Sheldon
gives you with Mona, speaks volumes
for the merit of Mi-o-na. No one can
afford to suffer longer, or be thin and
weak, now that there is a chance like
this to get remedy that costs nothing
unless it restores health and strength.

Better Teachers Wanted.

Principal H. j. Stannard, of Barton,
in his excellent address before the Teach
ers association, made a strong plea for
better informed teachers. He illustrated
his point by several rather amusing ex-
amples. Zone who has taught for two
years informed me-" he said, Through
the medium of teachers examination,
that the SpanishAmerican war was
missionaries in Spain and other coun-
tries, and another, when asked who
Molly Stark was, said when the troops
We're marching through the village of
Lexington, Molle Stark stuck her head
from a second-story window and, I'M
furling a flag, shouted, Shoot if you
must this old gray head, but spare your
country's flag. she said"

QUESTIONS ON RITUAL.
Certain Requirements For Properly
Comforting the Degrees.

Comforting the Degrees.
We have submitted the following
questions to Hon George r. Horton,
master of the Michigan state grange,
who is an authority on the subjects,
and the answers will doubtless be Of
general interest to members of the Or
der:
Q.-Is there any explanatory work or
lectures in connection with the confer
ring of the unwritten work of the Order,
and do you use and advise the same If
there be any? Al know of no author
lied lectures outside the ritual, which Is
very complete in itself. Extras are more
liable to take from than to add to the i'm
pressiveness and strength of the work.
Q.-Can the fifth degree be conferred by
obligation simply, and If so do you advise
It? A.-The fifth degree cannot legally be
conferred other than in full form. Grange
law is plainly in opposition to any abridge-
ment of degree forms.
Q.-Do you advise and do you use in
your work In Michigan the field work in
the first degree? A.-The single degree
forms in the ritual are essential when a
gentleman or lady is initiated singly. The
field work is instructive and is essential
to the completeness of the 'laborer s.
degree. Every grange should be equipped
with we'll designed field work. From an
object lesson point of view II is quite es-
sential.
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1903-11-13

The grange recognizes the value of
social life to the farmers family, and
we ought to make our sessions so at
homes will want to be with us. Many
a boy and girl have left the farm and
gone down to disgrace and ruin on ac-
count of the lack of elevating amuse-
ments. We look to the boys and girls
of our rural districts to carry on the
grand and glorious work of our Order
when we are gone. and it behooves US
as true Patrons to use every legitima Re
means within our power to interest
the young in our work. Are we doing
it? In many places juvenile oranges
are organized for the children. This
may not be practicable in every coun-
ty, but each subordinate grange might
have at least one day in the year
on which the children should be vel
coined and entertained. This would
work which would bear fruit in future
years. Only get the children interested
with US and there would be a different
view taken of farm life. Sons and
daughters would be inspired with more
love for the farm, the carewOrn wife
would enter upon her domestic duties
with lighter heart and the home ties
would become stronger. To accomplish
this would truly be an incentive to the
grange for further achievements.-C.C c..

New York. Dec. 22.-The famous 1.-TWO

apparatus than any other alarm provided
for by New York's fire department, was
sounded last night for terrific fire, which
destroyed the six-story factory building

There was frightfu panic among the
Italian inmates swarming in the front

fremen and police reserves had the ut
most difficulty in getting the people out
to the street.
The fire stated on the third floor and
when the firemen arrived the first, second
