zEBRAs UNDER THE SADDLE
Contrary to General Belief the AMI

able Mounts.

1t is but a few years since the latest
peril was encountered by the horse.
The automobile, it was predicted but
recently, would drive the noble animal
from the streets and the species would
soon become extinct Now new peril
confronts mans hest servant--a dis
tant relative. the zebra, which is com
ing to the front as a saddle-bearer.
says the Chicago Chronicle
Up to a recent date the zebra was
described as an untamabIe beast Prac-
fically all naturalists agreed that It
could not be broken TO harness. But
this belief was dissipated as South At
rica became settled Men not only
tanned the zebra sufficiently to breed it,
but they soon learned to break 1t SO
that 1t could be harnessed to wagons.
Now the German troops in southwest
Africa have done a stiIl more remark

animal They have broken It to the.

and men were sent in every day to
walk around among the captives and
accustom them 10 the sight and smell
Of human beings
The experimenters discovered to their
surprise. that. instead Of requiring a
long time to overcome their shyness,
the zebras became tame within a few
weeks. and would not only suffer
the approach Of men. but would per-
nit themselves to be stroked and fed
When the animals had arrived at this
stage. the best specimens we're select
ed and turned over to good riders in
the imperial troops. These men broke
the zebras. as horses are broken, and
the result Is that a number of the
zehras are being used regularly just

Lieut. Abel rode one OF these zehras
recently during a tour Of inspection
that lasted for several weeks, and re-
ports that it compared favorably in
every respect with the horse. He
found 1t not only perfectly obedient
and willing. but also better able to
Withstand fatigue than the ordinary
horse used in Africa
In addition. the zebra has the val
liable proper quality OF being immune

fatal to the unacclimated horse.

IT CURES WITHOUT STOMACH
DOSING.
tfyomei Cures catarrh by simple
Breathing. Peoples Drug Store Re-
funds Money II II Fails to Cure.

A long stride toward solving the
mystery Of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery Of Hyom=.. fn fact
the percentage Of cures BY this treat
ment proves it equal TO the final tests.
The folly Of taking medicine into
the stomach to cure catarrh Of the
nose. throat and lungs, has been real
lied by physicians, but not until Hy-
omei was known, had they a practical
method that would obyiate stomach
drugging.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists OF a neat pocket in-
haler that can be used anywhere with
out attracting attention, a medicine
dropper and a bottle Of Hyomei.
Breathing HYomei through the in
haler, every particle Of air that enters
the nose. throat und lungs. is charged
with a healing balsam that soothes
and aliays all irritation, kills the ca
tarrhal germs and enriches the blood
with additional ozone.
Shanahan & Mitchell. proprietors Of
Peoples Drug Store, have 50 much
faith in the power Of Hyomei to cure
catarrh, that they are selling il under
their personal guarantee TO refund
the money If It does not give positive
relief.
