SENSIBLE way TO CURE cATARRH.
Hyomsi Medieatss Ait You Breathe and
Kills All Catarrhal Germs Costs
Nothing Unless It Cures.

Do not take medicines into the stomach
to XIII catarrhal germs iii the head and
throat. Air alone can reach these germs.
Medicated with Hyomei and bFeathed
through the neat inhaler that comes with
every outht, the air goes to the most re-
mote air cells Of the head throat and
lungs, and completely destroys the disease
germs. Hyomei is the only sensible, yet
scientific way 70 cure catarrh. Other
remedies may fail: Hyomel will cure.
1t helps at once, and you get the yitaliz-
ing and inyig0rating effects from the first
few breaths Of Hyomei II it should hap
pen that Hyomei did not give you the same
good effects that 1t has in many other cases
right here at home, Rickert & Wells will
refund your money without question or
argument You will be the sole Judge as
to whether Hyomei costs you a penny or
not.
The complete outfit, consisting Of a
medicine dropper, an inhaler that can be
carried in the purse or vest pocket and a
bottle Of Hyomei sells for only one dollar
The inhaler will last a lifetime and extra
bottles OF Hyomei can be obtained, If
needed, for fifty cents.
When you get Hyomei outfit Rickert
& Wells will give you q signed receipt,
agreeing to refund the money in case 1t
does not cure catarrh and other diseases
of the respiratory organs. This Is the
strongest evidence that they can offer as
to their faith in Hyomei--to pay for il
themselves in case it does not cure.

LIVED IN IGNORANCE OF
WEALTH KEPT BY FATHER
Story Told by Heiress Who We'd
ded Mechanic and Now Seeks
to Recover Fortune.
CASE TAKEN TO COURTS

CHICAGO, April 1S.-According to de-
csion in the Probate Court to-day Cuth-
bert w. Laing, a real-estate dealer in this
city, is indebted in the sum of s25O,000, in
Guiding interest, to his daughter Irene
Laing Malcolm, of Toledo, o. 1t was
charged that Laing had squandered the
estate and kept his daughter in ignorance
of her wealth. The final decision OF the
court will be given Saturday, when former
Governor Hamilton will receive inStruc-
tons from the court as 10 what procedure
he shall take to recover what rightfully
belongs to the daughter.
Whether or not the sureties for Laing,
former Senator William f. Mason and DR..
V. G.. Price are to be sued on their bonds
will be decided by the court Saturday.
The story told by the daughter reads like
a romance. When she was an infant her
mother died, leaving the estate TO her. She
was sent to the home of her grandparents,
In Michigan, and grew into womanhood
ignorant that she was heir to a large eS-
tate. When her grandparents died she
came to Chicago to her father who, she
saws, did not tell her of her wealth. and
she married a mechanic. Soon after the
marriage she learned of the money left
her but her father, she said, denied the
truth OF the story. She appealed to former
Governor Hamilton and the suit for an ac-
counting followed. Laing claimed that he
acted in all transactions with the permits
sion of his daughter, and that she knew all
about the estate.

4 "NOveT" Luncheon.

London Daily Mail.
AS nine out of ten women are inreterate
readers of fiction. the latest idea in lunch
con parties is sure to attract every hostess
who is in search of some novel entertain
ment that will please her guests.
Invitations to a luncheon party for twenty
guests, who must perforce be well versed
in modern fiction, are sent out by the up 10
date hostess The invitation cards bear the
picture of a closed book, and the words
simply intimate that Mrs. Blank desires the
presence of Miss Dash TO novel lunch
con. On the arrival of the guests in the
dining room it is seen that ten round tables
are arranged round the room and that each
table has a different scheme of decoration.
In fact, every table is designed to carry out
the representation of a well-knOwn novel.
and before the guests are allowed to be
seated the names OF the ten works of fiction
must be guessed. Prizes are, of course,
awarded TO the quickest guesser, and the
fortunate ones allowed to partake OF
luncheon before their less astute friends.
The favorite novel, THE Four Feathers, "
is one that lends itself to very effective
arrangement in white feathers, and an in
cident in the book should be illustrated by
a decoration in the center. When possible
some article of food mentioned in the book
should be supplied by the menu for this
table. Barrie's Little White Bird" is q
story that can be graphically carried out al
novel" luncheon, and ''Trilby" is still
another celebrated work of fiction that sug-
geStS itself easy to arrange and easy &c
guess. Under Two Flags" makes quite ar
artistic table with its setting of exotic
flowers surmoUnted by the two flags, and
"A japanese Marriage" can also be pic
torially represented. AT a novel luncheon
given the other day by a writer OF
fiction TO other professionals. the hostess
had provided a tablecloth made of white
blue and pink blotting paper pieced to-
gether while the center ornament con-
sisted of bowl made from newspapers
and filled with coXcombs. This flower, as
was explained by the hostess, was the sym.
Dol of the critics who had unfavorably re.
viewed her works of fiction The name

guests, and were nothing less than the

Old Macrame Lace.

Washington Post.
1t is curious to notice how the cycle of
fashion revolves whatever it is that
cycles do, and how the mode of the latest
moment proves TO be an echo of the taste OF
an older day. One of the fashionable tail
ors has been displaying in his showroom
yards and yards of the latest thing in dress
garniture. 1t is nothing. but the old mac
rame lace we used to make of Irvine, on a
row of tacks pounded into board, in the
days when an undraped mantel was held
to be almost indicate, and every shelf had
its lambrequin. We used to make opera
bags and work bags of it, too, in the age
when we did crazy patchwork and painted
on plush, but nobody ever dreamed then
of using ii for dress trimmings In these
times there is none OF us who need be with
out some dainty touch in the matter OF
trimmings. If you haven't an old macrame
lambrequin put your wits TO work An
evening gown with appliques of roses from
the old Brussels carpet would be exceed
ingly chic, and a shirtwaist with insets
of linOleum squares in an 1880 effect would
charm the eyes of all beholders.

OF all the musical shows playing the pop
ular-price circuits this season George M.
Cohan's THE Governors Son. is about the
best. At least ii is superior to all produc-
rions of its class that have been seen at
the Park during the present theatrical year.
This merry musical farce played an en-
gagement at the popular-price Indianapolis
theater three months ago and made a very
favorable impression at the time. 1t re-
turned yesterday for another half-week' S
stay, and pleased large audiences in the
afternoon and evening
AS play THE Governors Son. Is not TO
be considered seriously, but as merely a
hodge-podge of jokes, funny situations,
bright musical numbers and dances il is a
good entertainment. Solos, choruSes,
marches, gags, airy parsifiage and tricks
of every sort known to farce-comedy fol-
low each other in rapid succession in the
piece, and the result is show which, while
neither novel nor especially original has
no dull moments. 1t Is one of the best
staged musical pieces ever offered at the
Park. The chorus girls are prettily cos
TUNED and the entire handling of the stage,
in groupings, scenery and every detail,
shows that the effort has been made, and
not in vain. to bring the production above
the usual level of attractions of its class
seen in the cheaper playhouses. The music
is also quite an advance over the customary
polyglot of ragtime songs and 'buck-and-
wing melodies.
There are no stars in the company, as
several of the characters of the cast are
equally prominent in the unfolding of the
ridiculous plot-if plot it can be called
John McVeigh continues to play the title
part, originally acted by the author % the
farce. and gives a praiseworthy perform
ance. He is not the dancer that Cohan is
but he possesses a much better singing
voice and knows how to render his topical
songs with excellent effect. Harry w. Les
ter, in the character of a runaway husband
disguised as a Dutch comedian, does much
toward helping the fun along, and the other
male roles well handled by Charles
Pussey, Walter Chester, Peter Curley, Will
Halliday and George w. Williams.
Ruth Halbert, Hilda Hawthorne, Louise
Gould and Grace Hazard are at the head OF
the feminene contingent. and all are OF
pleasing personality and good singers and
dancers. Miss Hawthorne'S work is partic-
uarly good, as she plays her role of the
widow in just the right comedy spirit. The

for the first half of the week at the Park
