LUCIA

A Short Tale That Illustrates

Training
Chicago News.)

NNAAAN!NFn'
There are lots of people in the world
who get gray and wrinkled worrying
so hard over how to keep young. They
are the kind who buy 13-cent coffee
to economic and then pay S1t3 doc.
tor bills in consequence. In short,
their sense of proportion is out of or.
der.
That has always been the trouble
with Lucia Harding. From childhood
to womanhood Lucia never had a dol
lar in sight when there were not
things to the value OF FIVE times that
dollar which she really needed. The
worst of being poor In a genteel way
is that one eternally has TO pretend
that one is not poor instead of being
able to be comfortably and openly
penniless, like the beggars and tramps
who never have to bother about keep
ing up appearances.
Money grew easier in her fathers
household when Lucia attained young
ladyhood, but her old habits stuck.

There is no branding iron whose ef-
feet is more lasting than the habit
of painfully and necessary economy.
II took Dick Harding a whole year
after he married her TO understand
just what was the trouble with Lucia.
Then he began to educate her into
the state of mind wherein she might
be able to dlsburse money without a

of the heart

wouldn't believe him.

Cures The Disease.

Hyomei cures catarrh thoroughly
and permanently, because it reaches
the smallest air cells in the head,
throat and lungs. kills the germs caus-
ing the disease and drives it from the
system. Byomei goes to the root of
the disease, destroys the cause, and
makes permanent cures which can be
effected In no other way. Breathe it
for few minutes four times day and
benefit will be seen at once. Commune
this treatment for a few weeks and
HYomei will have cured you
The Hyomei breathed through the
neat pocket inhaler furnished with

breathe. It is a local and direct treat
ment for eradicating all catarrh germs
in the mucous membrane and tissues

part of the system. Used in connec-
ton with Hyomei Balm it has been

The complete Hyomei outfit costs
$1.OO and comprises an inhaler, bot
tie of Hyomei and dropper. The in
haler will last lifetime; and addition
al bottles of Hyomei can be obtained

outfit it sells to refand the money if the
purchaser can say that Hyomei has moi
given satisfaction.

THE GREATEST OF CONGRESSES

The congress now in session, thinks
the Columbia State, is the greatest
congress that has ever met. Not the
greatest in craftsmanship and patriot
ism, perhaps, but the greatest in num-
Der of it's members. The senate and
house together have 476 members.
Every one of the States has for the
first time in several years it's quota of
two senators, and there are now As
States. Under the reappointment act
based on the 1900 census there are %
additional seats IN the house.
The last house numbered 357 men,
bers and this one has 1856. Besides
there are four delegates from the Ter
ritories and Hawaii and a resident
commissioner from Puerto Rico, whose
only duty is to look very wise and be
pleasant
When the Filipinos are sufficiently
''pacifed" there will doubtless be
some sort of representative from thai
unhappy archipelago, and before long a
commissioner of ornamental obliga-
ton from the annexed province of
| Panama. For we are expanding into
great republican empire and at least
the forms of representative govern
ment must be preserved.
In the fifty eight congress there is
an unusually large number of new
members. OF the 1856 members of the
house 120 were not members of the
last house, although some of them may
have held membership in some previ-
Gus congress.
And of members of the fifty seventh
congress re elected to this one "a have
served only the one term. 1t will be
seen from this that there is a large
membership which will have very
small influence in shaping legislation,
as a new member counts for very little
under the rules which govern the
house. Some restriction upon debate
and action is necessary, else the house
with its large membership would be
unwiedIy and business could not be
satisfactorily transacted.
In the present house the Republicans
maintain absolute control, having a
majority of 80, and the 178 Democrats
can only indulge in falkland not much
of that. The Republican majority il
the last house was forty. The senate
has Republican majority of % Of
against ~ in the past congress, wher
there were one Popuist, one Silver
party, enc Fusionist and two vacan
ciss. In the present senate there is
fuH representation of the States anC
the members are all either Republican,
or Democrats.
Although the majority against them
is almost as great as that against which
their party associates in the house
have to contend, the Senate Demo
Gratis have an advantage in their right
to talk until the crack of doom or ad
journment sine die.

ASIMpLE REMEDY FOR
CATARRH.
Just Breath Hyomei Four Times a
Day and Be Cured.

A complete outfit costs but 81 90, and
includes an inhaler, dropper and suffi-
cient Hyomel for several weeks treat
ment.
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to doubters, is the fact
that Dodson's Pharmacy have so much
faith in Hyomei that they sell every
package under a positive guarantee to
refund the money if it does not cure.
Now is the time to begin the use Of
Hyomei.
