Washington dispatch to the Record

of the diplomatists Of the highest rank

The foregoing words summarize the
best opinion in the diplomatic world.
They would create a sensation II the
name of the man who spoke them could
be given.
It is the belief Of diplomatists that
now. before any great land battles have
been fought and Japan has made only
trifiing sacrifices Of men and money.
Russia could secure terms of peace
which might be regarded as favorable

HOW HYOMEI HELPS HEALTH
Kills the Germs of Grip, Catarrh and
CoIds-"Costs Nothing if 1t Fails"
Says the Peoples Drug Store.

Now that Hyomei can be obtained
in nearly every town and city in the
country, it is possible to buy from
druggists a health giving climate, to
be carried in the purse or pocket. BY
breathing it a few minutes four times
a day you can soon cure grip, coughs,
colds and even the worst and most
chronic cases Of catarrh.
The Peoples Drug Store has seen so
many remarkable cures made 10y the
Hyomei treatment that they sell it
with the positive agreement 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 catar-
rhal troubles and if breathed at the
commencement of a cold or the grip,
will check it quickly and prevent sick
ness. Extra bottles of Hyomei can
be obtained for soc.
When breathed through the inhaler,
the germ-killing and health-giying
Hyomei goes to the most remote cells
Of the throat and lungs, killing all
the catarrahal germs, soothing the
irritated mucous membrane and vital
izing the blood with ozone.
At this season Of the year, every
one should have a Hyomei outfit to
prevent and cure catarrhal troubles,
and ward off attacks Of grip, pneumo-
MIA and similar diseases.

FIRST DECISION FINAL.
Judge Parker Will Make No Political
Speeches.

New York, Oct chairman Tag
CART, at Democratic headquarters, gave
out the following statement:
Shortly after his nomination Judge
Parker set about the consideration OF
his course of action toward the con
duct of the campaign. He consulted
many men of large experience in such
matters and made an examination OF
the course of every successful candl
date. That done he decided what his
course should be and he caused thai
decision to be made generally known
1t was to the effect that he would not
go upon the stump; that such speeches
as he should deem it desirable to make
could be made at Rosemount, follow
ing In that respect the Mckinney
precedent of 1896.
THAT decision made and announced
he proceeded to work along the lines
he had marked out for himself. He
believed then-as he believes now
that he decided rightly. The incident
is closed and those in charge OF the
