Louisville, KY, May 23.-The Times
Saturday says: j. A. Parker, chairman
of the national executive committee

ceive the support of the populists in
Kentucky and elsewhere. Il speak for
the national leaders of my party when

Parker. His views and principles

CURE CATARRH BY BREATHING
Hood { Martin Offer to Return
Money II Hyomei Treatment
Fails To Cure Catarrh Without
Stomach Dosing.

Ii for few minutes four times a
day You breathe Hyomei, catal rhal
germs will be destroyed and the irri-
tated mucous membrane restored to
health.
With every Hyomei outfit there is
a neat inhaler which can be carried
in the purse or pocket. Hyomei
breathed through this contains the
same healing balsams that are found
in the air upon the mountains, where
catarrh is unknown.
1t destroys all catarrhal germs In
the air passages of the head, throat
and nose, and makes a positive and
permanent cure of catarrh.
The complete outfit costs but 81,
while extra bottles of Hyomei can
be obtained for Soc, making ii one
of the most economical of treatments
for catarrh.
Hood d Martin believe so thor
oughly in the merit of Hyomei, that
they guarantee to return the money
If il fails. This is certainly the
strongest evidence they can give of
their faith in the Hyomei treatment.
1t enables any one TO use Hyomei
without risk of spending money for
nothing.
Ask Hood d Martin to show you a
Hyomei outfit and explain to you
what q simple and easy way 1t is to
relieve and cure your catarrh
troubles.

Col. JAS. S. DAVIS returned Sat
urday Light from southern Texas
where he had been with several gov
eminent experts organizing Farm
ers' Institutes. Col. Davis says
they had fine success, the farmers
turning out in large numbers at all
their appointments. At McGregor,
in McLennan county, where the boil
weevil destroyed the cotton crop last
year, there was an immense crowd,
and of course they were anxious to
learn how to produce cotton despite
the boil weevil. At Temple, Mr..
Davis says, 0He OF the newspapers
made some uncomplimentary re-
marks regarding the meetings and
the purposes in view. This, he says,
very much disturbed some of the gem
tlemen in the party, but he assured
them they need not fear the influence
of an editor or his paper, who at this
time when the very best cotton pro-
ducing sections of the state were be-
ing ruined, would ridicule or make
sport of any effort to unite the farm
ers in protecting their interests;
hat he would venture the assertion
that he could walk outside the cir
culation of that paper iii an hour
and not walk very rapidly, either.
We heartily agree with Mr.. Davis.
The newspaper which opposes the
organic alton of farmers institutes in
this day and time will not have
much circulation among the farm
ers, nor will he have any very long.
