Baltimore Family's Experience Points a
Moral to Residents of Belfast, Me.
The visitor to Baltimore today scarcely
realizes that less than a year ago the city
was almost destroyed by a memorable fire.
A similar comparison might be made by
George w. Nally, one of the leading citizens
of Baltimore, as to the change in his own
looks.
A short time ago, Mr.. Nally, writing
from his home address, 2213 Barclay ST.,
says 81 have been troubled for years with
catarrh and had resOrted to all remedies
that could be thought of. Ny wife was also
afflicted with this terrible disease. but all
the treatments we used were an absolute
failure until we tried HyOmei. 1t worked
like charm and has made a complete cure
in both of our cases. There is no disagree.
able stomach dosing in using Hy0mei. We
breathed it, and its fragrance, SO clean,
pure and bracicg, killed all the catarrhal
germs in the head, throat and lungs.
The experience of Mr.. Nally and his wife
certainly points a moral to all readers of
The Journal who are suffering from ca
tarrah. 1t shows how they can be cured of
this frightful disease, without dangerous
stomach dosing. r. H. Moody, the local
agent for HyOmei, has so much faith in the
treatment that he gives his personal guar
antee to refund the money In case it does
not benefit A complete outfit costs one
dollar, the extra bottles are but fifty cents.
Ask to see the strong guarantee under
which HyOmei is sold.

The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, usually
sane and safe, but intensely saffron in
its support of Parker, correctly esti-
mates the present Democratic situa-
ton. 1t admits that the men behind
Parker were those who twice contrib
uted to the defeat of Bryan, and par
ticularly attributes the result in Mis-
souri, to the followers of Bryan. 1t
says:
The recrudescence of Organism within
Democracy, which Judge Parker's de-
feat by Organism in Missouri and else
where has produced, will present con-
ditions to the Democrats who were for
Mckinley in 1896 and in 1900 and who
were for Judge Parker in 1904 upon
which they will be able to act, in 1908.
BY the latter year, the control of
operative and official Democracy by

moderate Bryan program, by union of

TIRE OSTEOPATH Y
MEASURE.

The osteopaths have caused to be
introduced into the Legislature a
bill, which places the practice of os-
teopathy on the same basis as the old
er schools of healing. 1t is reason
able bill and one that will do much
to give osteopathy the standing which
the science and its practical results
deserve. The bill seeks to make os-
eOpathic practitioners comply with
the same rules and regulations for the
public's welfare that it demands Of
alleopathists and homeopathists. This
protects osteopaths against incompe-
tent doctors and the public has a
guarantee that those licensed for
practice are up to the standard 1t is
a common sense bill and deserves to
pass. Regarding osteopathy itself, it
is an exact science, and there is no
qusckery, hypnotism, or faith healing
about it. 1t goes about allevisting
and curing diseases in scientific way
based upon the anatomy of the body
and the condition of muscle, nerve
and blood supply, Results from this
theory of healing prove that the basis
of the science is right. The bill does
not ask any favors, however, it mere
ly asks to be put under the same re-
strictions that pertain to m sdical
science and then let the people choose
how they shall be doctored. Bradford
