Hyomei, the OnlylGuaranteed Cure for
Catarrh.
Moderate In prIoe-Makes pureet food.

No one should confound HyOmei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is
as far superior to them all as the
diamond is more valuable than
cheap glass. Their composition is
secret, but Hyomei gives it's formula
to all reputable physicians and is
prescribed byithem generally.
It's base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for it's antiseptic quail
ties. This is combined with aro-
matte and healing gums and bal
sans, making pure liquid which,
when used in the Hyomei pocket
inhaler, fills the air you breathe
with germ-kill1ng, disease destroy
ing and healing powers that restore
health to every part of the nose,
throat and lungs.
The only way to cure catarrh and
all other diseases of the respiratory
organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has Doon so sue
cessful in curing SO per cent, Of all
who have used it, that Hyomei is
now sold by J. T. Bennett, under
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money IN case it does not benefit.
You run no risk whatever in buy
ing Hyomei. If it did not possess
unusual powers to cure, it could
not be sold upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
$1.OO and comprises an inhaler, a
bottle Of Hyomei and a dropper.
The inhaler will last lifetime; and
additional bottles of Hyomei can be
obtained for soc.

ties still to be heard from the returns
show that Rooseyelt's plurality in Mis-.

counties unheard from six went for
Bryan in 1900. They are remote and
sparsely settled. With the returns from
nine counties missing Folks plurality

quarters it is stated that only one-third
of the returns from the state on the
balance of the state ticket have been
received.
Democrats Are Still Hoping.
1t is contended that the state tick
ct may not be defeated. No claims
are made concerning the complexion Of
the legislature. In fact very little COM
ment is made outside of theplain state
ment that the legislature is Republic
an. The long, constant vigil for cleo
ton returns since the closing of the
polls told plainly on those at both
headquarters, and it will be physical
relief to the adherents of both parties
when the last return has been received.

Chairman Niedringhaus says: 1.-THE
Republicans will have a majority in
the legislature on joint ballot of at
least fourteen, and perhaps twenty.
This means the election of Republic
can United States senator. The re-
turns are pouring in rapidly now They
will show that the Republicans have
elected eight representatives and as
the Sixteenth district is in doubt it's
returns may show the election of one
more representative, making nine in
all. This certainly has been an unpre-
cedented election in Missouri. We will
contest the elections in the Eleventh

WHEN SCHOOL OPENS:
SOME "DON'TS" FOR PARENTS

Do not believe all that your children
tell you about school. There was only
one George Washington, and he is
dead.
DO not tell the teacher that Willie
will not lie. She probably knows bet
ter.
Do not condemn the teacher with
out a fair hearing. That is accorded
to even the worst criminal. There are
usually two sides to story.
Do not send a scathing note to the
teacher by Nellie, the contents Of
which she knows. Her aggressive look
of triumph is not soothing, and the
teacher is only human.
Do not make unfavorable comment
upon the methods of the teacher in
the presence of your child. Send him
to carry in the wood while you are
doing so, If it must be done.
Do not plead lack Of time to visit the
school, There is no excuse for shirk-
ink a duty.
Do not reproach the teacher with
the fact that Tommy has not learned
single thing the entire year" She
is not responsible for his lack Of
brains.
Do not send verbal request to have
Jessde's seat changed. There is often
no vacant seat, and one change usu-
ally means at least half a dozen.
Do not expect the teacher to man
age without friction child whom you
yourself have never been able to con-
troll.
Do not insist that the teacher is
keeping your child back through spite
She will hardly risk her reputation as
an instructor to crafty a personal
grudge, however disagreeable the child
may be.
Do not forget that the parent owes
a duty to the teacher just as surely as
the teacher does to the child.-Alict

THE POSTAL SERVICE.
A High Standard of Devotion to Duty
Is Maintained.

n
Is Maintained.
One clerk was busy throwing mail In
q combination smoker and baggage car,
when suddenly, without an instant's
warning, he felt the car leap from the
track and heard terrific crash. When
he regained consciousness the wreck
presented this chaotic condition: The
two forward cars had been plunged
down a seventy-foot embankment; the
combination car landed in an upright
position with the rear trucks on the
roof, every seat In the smoking COM
partment being utterly demolished,
while on the floor of the mail compart-
ment was huge angular stone weigh
Ing not less than half ton. How the
mail clerk escaped unhurt will always
be a mystery, says the Worlds Work.
There is probably no department Of
the government service in which a
higher standard of devotion to duty is
maintained than in this During a
heavy freshet on the Susquehanna Riv-
er, in 1890, all bridges were swept
away and the railroad tracks along the
banks practically destroyed. -Four mail
clerks remained in their car until the
water rising and flowing through the
doors compelled them to take to an i'm
provised raft which consisted of pieces
of floating sidewalks and other debris
of the inundation, dashed together. On
this frail craft they put their pouches,
and carefully propelling by poles along
with the current. gained the postoffice
mile away. They found this aban'
doned, with eight feet of water in the
street at that point. They were almost
exhausted and their condition was pre-
carious. Finally, however, they were
rescued by boats and taken into
houses through the second-story win
dows. The letter mail was all intac
and in fairly good condition
Some time ago the run" on West
