offer to Refund money if Hyomei
Does Not Cure catarrh.

To the editor of the Somerset Reporter.
We have been asked recently if the ad
vertisements printed in your columns
regarding Hyomei were true. where we
offer to refund the money if this treat
ment does not cure catarrh We wish
you would please print this letter in as
conspicuous place as possible in your
paper, saying that we absolutely agree to
refund the money to any purchaser of a
Mvomei outfit, if II does not cure catarrh.
This on fit consists of an inhaler of
convenient size to be carried in the vest
pocket 81 that the user can breathe Hyo
mel air four or five times daily With
this is a medicine dropper and bottle
of Hyomei. The outfit sells for $l,00
and is "A most economical treatment, for
the inhaler lasts a lifetime and there is
enough Hyomei for more than months
use. while extra bottles can be obtained
for SOC.
" e trust this communication will set
tie any doubts that may have arisen as
tn our willingness 10 refund the money
fora Hyomei outfit, in case the pur-
chaser is not satisfied.
We wish to say emphatically that our
guarantee on Hyome holds good, and
we will refund the money to any DIS
satisfied purchaser who simply states
that he has used The treatment according
to directions and not been helped.
Respectfully yours,

Fuel Ancient Rome.

The fuel of the ancient Romans was
almost exclusively charcoal This was
burned in open pans, without CRATE or
fiue, and gave economical heat for liv-
ing rooms and baths. Careful expert
ment has shown that such fires yield
no considerable amount of dangerous
carbonic oxide. The inconvenience of
chimneys was avoided, the heat could
be easily regulated, and a pan with q
burning surface sufficed to heat a
church seating 1000 people.

Higher Education.

Those who plead the cause of Latin
and Greek in our higher education
should remember that colleges were
first founded in the early middle ages
to teach the classics to prospective
priests, for use in reading rituals
Greek in the east and Latin in the west,
at Il time when these languages were
obsolescent in speech and yet contain
ed all the literature, philosophy. poetry
and such science as the world of Eu-
rope knew. and the modern tongues,
just coming into use in Europe. north
and south. had in them neither litera-
ture nor other elements of learning.
Colleges so begun became the fashion.
Every college man was classical man,
and naturally then, as now, man
would feel that his own college culture
was the right one 1t soon became a
common saying that the only educa-
ton worthy of the name was Greek
and Latin But now modern languages
are very rich in every form of ltera-
ture and learning, everything from the
classics has been often emptied into
them by better masters than the aver
age student can fairly hope to be, los
ing some and also gaining some in the
translation from languages which few
scholars even ever learn to read and
to enjoy, while a wealth of scientific
knowledge Of the boundless world,
which to know is the real learning has
sprung up in many modern tongues
