UNUSUALLY GOOD TICKET"

Thinks Fusion Would Not Have Much
Chance Against It.
A special despatch to the Burlington
Free Press from Montpelier says Of the
Republican county nominees:
In the above list OF officers the Republi-
cans of Washington comfy have nominal
ed an unusually strong ticket and it Is be-
lieved the nomination Of S. Hollister
jackson OF Barre for state attorney will
do much to weaken fusion ticket, should
such one be nominated on Thursday
when Democratic county convention and
mass meeting OF the high license local
option party is to be held in this city. 1t
has been intimated by those high in au-
thority in these parties that the Democrat
ic and fusion ticket nominated on Thurs
day, If fusion ticket Is nominated will
be identical with the one nominated today
by the Republicans with three exceptions:
That is the name OF DIR. w. b. Mayo of
Mortified will be substituted for o. g.
Eaton Of Waitsfeld for senator. M. S.
Hathaway, the present incumbent and a
Democrat, win 20 on the ticket for second
assistant Judge in place OF Il. Ransom
Wells Of Middlesex and that OF G.. b.
Evans for sheriff In place of X. FL. Tracy.
Although the smaller towns in the county
talk much Of fusion the cities of Barre
aud Montpelier are satisfied with the Re-
publican ticket today nominated and al
though fusion ticket won out In Washing
ton county two years ago by more than
!, 900 votes, 1t is believed by those best
acquainted with the existing conditions
that If fusion ticket Is nominated here
next Thursday 1t viii 90 down TO defeat

THE PEOPLES DRUG STORE
RELIES UPON HYOMEI.
Cures Colds, Coughs, catarsh and
Grip Just Breathe It.

Hyomei is natures own method for
curing catarrh, colds, coughs and dis
eases Of the respiratory organs. 1t ie
the only natural treatment for the
cure Of these troubles. Breathed
through the neat pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit, the air that
passes into the throat and lungs is
identical with that on the mountains,
where it is laden with healing and
health-giying balsams. 1t searches
out and kills disease germs in the most
remote and minute air cells Of the
head, throat and lungs; it soothes and
heals all irritation Of the mucus men,
brane.
Hyomei is prescribed by physicians
generally. Many Of them use it them
selves to break up a cold and prevent
pneumonia.
The complete Hyomei outfit consists
Of a neat inhaler that is so small and
convenient that it can be carried in
the pocket or purse, q medicine drop
per and a bottle Of Hyomei. This costs
but 81. and it will cure any ordinary
case Of catarrh. In chronic and deep
seated conditions, longer use is neces-
sary and extra bottles Of Hyomei can
be obtained for i0c., making it most |
treatment for this disease.
The Peoples Drug Store has so much |
in the power Of Hyomei to
cure catarrh and other diseases Of the
throat and lungs that they sell llitunderl
their personal guarantee to refund the
money to any purchaser in case 1t fails
10 give satisfaction. They take all 1
The risk themselves, and Hyomei costs
Tou absolutely nothing unless it does
you good.
