State Christian. Endeavorers.

The eighteenth annual Christian En-
deavor convention was held at Barre last
week and was most helpful to the large
number of delegates who were pres
ent.
The following officers were elected:
President, Col. E. G. Osgood, of Bellows
Falls; first vice president, press COM
mittee and excursion manager, II. G.
Woodruff, of Barre; second vice presi-
dent, Mrs. Alice E. Wright, of Newport;
third vice president, Rev. Fraser Meter,
of Randolph; fourth vice president, Miss
Florence M. Hemingway; secretary, Miss
Helen M. Graves, of st. Johnsbury Cen
ter assistant secretary and superintend-
ent of correspondence, Miss Marion j.
Hall, of South Ryegate; treasurer, Clyde
w. Perry, of Barre; auditor, F. r. Dick
erman, of Bristol; superintendent of
junior work, Miss Mary w. Ellis, of
Springfeld; assistant superintendent of
junior work, Mrs. Lizzie Pierce, of West
minister. 1t was with difficulty that
Colonel Osgood was persuaded to accept
another election to the Office of presi-
dent.
With the report on nominations were
submitted three propositions, which
were adopted. They were as follows:
list, that the offices of first vice president,
press committee and excursion manager
be combined; end, that the offices of
assistant superintendent of junior work
and superintendent of correspondence
be combined: Sd, that the clerical work
of the secretary be done at the expense
of the state society. 1t was also voted
that field secretary for Vermont be
employed, if the finances of the society
will warrant the expense, and if not to
combine with New Hampshire in en-
ploying such secretary.
There were 15S delegates registered,
but some of those present did not
register. 1t is thought that 200 were
present.

rhe old soldiers il conaress.

II is curious to note that although
the Civil War has been over thirty
eight years there will be seventy-sev-
en- men in the Fifty-eighth Congress
who served either In the Federal or
Confederate armies As most of these
men were in their majority when they
entered the service of the cause for
which they fought. their presence to-
day in active service In the national
legislative body of the United States
speaks volumes for the sturdiness OF
the American race.
OF the Civil War veterans who will
occupy seats in the Senate and House
during the coming session forty-seven
fought on the Union side and thirty
cast their lot with the Confederacy.
In the Senate the division is equal,
there being thirteen ex-Union soldiers
and thirteen ex-Confederates; In the
House there are forty-four who fought
for the North and only seventeen who

YOUR MONEY RETURNED
If Hyomei Does Not Cure You Of 0atarrl
Saws FeldmeYer Bros.

In advertising that they will refund
the money to any one purchasing a
Hyomei outfit who can say that il has
done them no good in the treatment
Of catarrh, Feldmeyer Brothers mean
exactly what this guarantee says.
OF course, the percentage of cures
by Hyomei is nearly one hundred, or
else they could not afford to
make this unusual offer. But il
the treatment should not be adapted
to your case there will be no ques-
tons or quibblings when you go to
get your money.
That the beginning of catarrh is
due to the presence of germs in the
air passages is now admitted by every
physician. 1t stands to reason that
catarrh cannot be cured unless these
germs are first destroyed. The Hy-
omei treatment kills the catarrh
germs even in the minutest air cells,
soothes and heals the irritated mu-
cous membrane, and makes complete
and lasting cures in cases that have
resisted the usual methods of treat
ment.
Catarrh cannot be cured by medi-
cines administered through the stom-
ach. Hyomei is the only natural meth
cd, and it has made cures that seem
miraculous. An outfit costs but $1.OO,
and consists of an inhaler which will
last lifetime and sufficient Hyomei
for more than a months treatment.
Additional bottles of Hyomei can be
procured for soc.
Feldmeyer Brothers give their per-
sonal guarantee with every Hyomei
outfit they sell to refund the money
if il does not cure

rhouoht He was Paralvzed.

THAT reminds me of something
which happened during my second
year at the medical school," remarked
q young physician. For the first
year or two a man studies medicine he
has every disease he learns about. In
my day we had a man among us who
felt sure that he was going to be para
lyzed. He was healthy as the next
man. but that seemed to him to make
his disease more insidious. He used
to sit with his legs crossed and hit
his knee to see If his refiexes were all
right. Every time he failed to hit the
right spot he would look down at his
motionless foot and say: Boys, this
Is awful He used to stand up, put
his heels together and shut his eyes
to see If he'd stagger. And he always
declared he did. Paralysis, and moth
ing but paralysis. was on the mans
mind, and he reckoned on being strick-
en- at any time. When he was in his
room he wore a pair Of slippers-the
kind you can walk into without stoop-
ing. One night, when he had gone to
bed somewhat the worse for the even
ing's merriment. two of us stepped In
and tackled his saipers to the floor.
About 8 o'clock next morning we were
startled by a blood-curdling yell from
him. We rushed in. There he stood.
just as he had stepped out Of bed, his
feet in his slippers.

SEVENTH SESSION.

Never in the history of this State
has legislature convened under
more suspicious circumstances, and
never before did a legislature go
about its business in a more intelli-
gent and business like way. The
body gives every promise of being
notable for its prompt, sensible and
Straightforward course. The people
of Idaho expected much and unless
all indications fail they will not be
disappointed. Every Republican in
the State is we'll pleased. Things
have started off right. There have
been no unseemly wrangles, no
tedious and exasperating delay, no
quarreling and pickering. In short,
the legislature is fulfilling every
hope of its friends and disappoint-
ing every prognostic of its enemies.
At last, after many years of waiting,
a body of truly representative men
has been brought together, and
there is joy throughout the COM
monwealth. We hope and believe
that nothing will occur to mar the
present happy situation. The leg
islature is in harmony with itself
and in accord with every depart
ment of State government. As it
begun its deliberations, so let it end
them, and naught but good can
result from the Seventh Session.

A NOBLE STAND.

Sometimes it is good for a man
to suffer defeat, because if he is
made of the right kind OF stuff, il
brings out his quality in bold relief,
and forever dispels doubt from the
minds of friends and closes the
mouths of envy and ca1umny. In
a sense, w. E. Borah's defeat has
been of inestimable value to him,
1t has furnished the occasion for
presenting him to the people of this
State in his true colors. It has
proved him to be a man of clear
perceptions, strong determination
and abundant moral stamina. From
henceforth, Mr., Borah will occupy
q position in the eyes and the hearts
OF the people of Idaho which here
tofore he has not occupied. The
one element, he was supposed to be
lacking he does not lack. The one
weakness charged against him, he
does not possess. 1t has been worth
more than can be calculated to him
