Literary Notes.

A leading feature of the November
number of the Century Is the opening
paper of the new literary find ThacE
eray's letters recording his friendship
with an American family, the Baxters OF
New York, to which Miss Lucy w. Bsx-
ter contributes an introduction, and
which are accompanied by number of
drawings and interesting autographs OF
Thackeray. A piece Of hitherto un-
recorded adventure Is entitled "Fightiug
the Hudson" In which H. Addington
Bruce relates perilous emergency In
the course of the construction OF the
Of the Hudson River tunnel, now nearly
finished. "a Worlds Congress Of
Lions" by Professor Henry Fairfield
Osborn, describes with curious detail the
Lion House of the New York Zoo, with
two colored insets OF animals by Charles
r. Knight.
Readers of the November St. Nicholas
will turn TO and lipger longest over the
opening chapters of B. L. Fsrgeon's IA
Comedy In Wax" "a Comedy In Wax"
Is the story of little Lucy, her sister
Lydia, Lydia's lovers, and Nine. Tus-
saud and her waxworks-the famous
waxworks exhibition In Maryet one
Road which for nearly a century has
been one of the most popular shows In
London. There are illustrations by
Fanny Y. Cory In her usual happy vein
and the story promises to increase in
interest as the months come around
There are good short stories too in the
November issue for both girls and boys

CAUTION.

This is not gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pnr-
chase the only remedy universally known
and remedy that has had the largest
sale of any medicine in the world since
1853 for the cure and treatment of Con
sumption and Throat and Lung troubles
without losing its great popularity all
these years, you will be thankful we
called your attention to Boschee's Ger
man Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for light
colds perhaps, but for severe Coughs,
Bronchitis, Croup--and especially for
Consumption, where there il difficult ex
peotoration and coughing during the
nights and mornings, there is nothing
like German syrup The % cent size

CURES CATARRH.
"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure
Catarrh Ever Discovered, Says
Mayor Yard.


for Catarrh Ever discovered, Says
Mayor Yard.
Do not try to cure catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach ; it cannot be
cured in that manner. The only way in
which this too common disease can be
cured is through direct Applicant IN that
will kill the bacilli of catarrh and pre-
vent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method of
treatment that accomplishes this. 1t is
the simplest, most pleasant, and the only
absolute cure for catarrh that has ever
been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimonials
have been received from the most promi
nent men and women in the country who
have been cured by this remarkable
remedy. Ministers, bankers, lawyers,
even eminent physicians have sent strong
testimonials as to the remarkable powers
of Hyomei to cure catarrh.
| Former Mayor Emory NJ. Yard of
Trenton, n. j., writes: "You have my
permission to say that | believe 'Hyomef
to be one of the most wonderful cures
| for oatarrh and throat trouble that has
ever been discovered In my case the
effect has been marvellous enclose you
money order for two outfits for friends
of mine to whom | have recommended
'Hyomei and who l am anxious shall
have the benefit of this remaTka pan
acea."
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81 90, consisting of an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei to last some weeks
This will effect a cure in ordinary cases.
but for chronic and deepseated cases of
catarrh, longer use is necessary, and then
extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtained
for soc. 1t is not alone the best ut might
be called tho only method of curing ca
tarrh, but it is also the most economical.
Frank w. Buchanan has 80 much CON
fidence in the power of Hyomei to cure
catarrh, that he will for limited time,
sell this medicine under his own personal
guarantee to refund the money If the
purchasers can say that it did not help
| them.
