STRONG EVIDENCE OF FAITH
T. H Thomas Guarantees That HyomeI
VIII Cure the Worst Case of Ca
tar-h In Rock Island.

When one of the most reputable
concerns in Rock Island guarantees
that medicine will effect a cure or
he will return the money, it speaks
volumes as to the merit of that RENE
dy. 1t is in this way that L. II. Thorn
as is selling Hyomei, the treatment
that has made so many remarkable
cures of both acute and chronic cases
of catarrh in Rock Island and vicin-
ity.
Hyomei is not pill nor is it Ii
quid that has to be taken with Il ia
blespoon or wineglass. just breathe
it by the aid of an inhaler that comes
in every outfit and benefit will be seen
from the first treatment.
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. Wherever mucous MEM
brane contains catarrhal germs, there
Hyomei will do its work of healing.
When using this treatment, the air
YOU breathe will be found like that
on the mountains high above the sea
level. where grow balsamic trees and
plants which make the air pure by
giving off volatile antiseptic frag-
rance that is healing to the rcspira-
tory organs.
Remember that if Hyomei does not
cure you, T. ii. Thomas will refund
your money. This is good time to
cure catarrh by this natural method
and prevent catarrhal colds that are
so common at this season.

TREATMENT FOR MILK FEVER.

The new treatment for milk fever, as
practiced in Great Britain, and which has
been favorab!y received in Canada. is TO
inject into the udder Through the teats)
dram of iodide of potassium mixed with
one quart of boiling water, cooled down
to 9S degrees Fahrenheit before being
used. Several quarts should be made
ready, and half pint injected through
each teat into each quarter of the I'D
der The COW should then be placed in
a comfortable position on her chest AMI
the udder gently rubbed Her position
should be changed every two or three
hours. Before injecting tie solution the
udder and teats should be carefully wash
ed with soap and water to which few
drops of -rbolic acid has been added.
Dr. William Mole, veterinary surgeon, OF
Canada. explains the new treatment by
stating that milk fever is caused by re-
introduction OF the milk into the circu-
lation at the time of pasturition, due tn
many cases to want Of water, causing
toxic blood poisoning. coma and death
from exhaustion, so that by injecting
material that could be absorbed along

opment of its ability to produce eggs can

more OF winter eggs than would other

desiring early maturity is that the cnicK

fore feathering and during that process
the mortality among chicks is great
After feathering the young fowl is more
able to endure changes of temperature
and is apparently more able to throw
off disease. Previous to feathering, and
while this process is going on, the constl-
tuition of the chick is weak. 1t Is, there
fore, desirable TO get the young fowl be-
yond that period as quickly as possible.
The young of slowly maturing fowls draw
out this critical period till heat is intense
and lice and mites excessively abundant
The chicks have the best chance for de-
velopment during the late months OF early
spring. The early maturing breeds take
advantage of this favorable weather and
are in a condition to stand the hot weather
when il comes. Early maturiay is char
acteristic that should be fixed in all the
breeds, whether they be for egg or meat

selection Of the early maturing fowls and

ENDURANCE OF A PIG.

A curious instance OF the powers OF
endurance Of high-bred swine comes to
Rural-Voice from Minnesota. a farmer
winter discovered that he had lost a val
liable young pig. He notified the neigh
bors and there was a general hunt for the
animal that was intended as a prize win
ner at the shows this fail. Neither hide
nor hair could be found Of him through
out all the countryside and finally the
owner gave Up ever finding his pet.
More than three months after the dis
appearance of the pig, Arthur Brush,
manager of a big wheat farm near Angus
owned by himself and two brothers, went
10 his> >hay stack 10 get some straw. He
had taken out quite a quantity and was
getting pretty well down to the center
OF Il when suddenly he came upon the
missing pig. The pig was too weak TO
grunt and the last run or shade Of ira
dition wasn't a comparison 70 that pig.
But he was alive. Mr.. Brush picked up
the pig and carried him 10 food and
water and notified his neighbor that his
long-lost porker was found. a few days
feeding restored the pig 10 normal
strength and now he is as Fat and hand
some as any Of his breed. showing no
signs OF his long fast from food and
water.
