and the blaze was discovered in the
negro shanty on Newcastle street,
near the corner OF Howe. This little
old shack has been an eye-sore to the

Bowditch & Webster and Percy W.
! Means have seen so many remarkable
cures made by the Hyomei treatment,
that they sell it with the positive agree
ment to return the money if it fails to
cure.
A complete outfit costs but 81. and
consists of the pocket inhaler, medi-
cine dropper and sufficient Hyomei to
last several weeks.
1t effects a cure in the worst ca
tarrhal troubles and if breathed at the
commencement of cold or the grip.

When breathed through the inhaler,
the germ-killng and health giving Hy-
omei goes to the most remote cells of

AT this season of the year, every one

VIM. Gaslin. the subject of the above,
will be remembered by many of the
older citizens, for although he has been

passed in Augusta. and it was here
after his graduation from Bowdoin in

the Office of the late Samuel Titcomb.
He also taught school in the city, and
some Of his former scholars are now in
business on Water street. He held the
offices of city clerk and city solicitor
before he went from the city. Judge
Gaslin was for many years on the
supreme bench of Nebraska, and now

many younger men.
