Do not try to cure catarrh by taxing
drugs into the stomach IL cannot Do
cured in that manner. The only way
in which this too common disease can
be cured is through q direct application
that will kill the bacilli Of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method OF
treatment that accompanies this. IL Is
the simplest, most pleasant. and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that mas
ever been discovered.
Thousands OF unsolicited testimonials
have been received from the most prom
inent men and women in the country
who have been cured by this remarkable
remedy. Ministers, bankers, lawyers.
even eminent physicians have been
giving strong testimonials as TO the re-
markable powers Of Hyomei to cure Ca
tarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but

aud sufficient Hyomei to last several
weeks. This will effect cure in ordi'
nary cases, but for chronic and deep
seated cases of catarrh, longer use may
be necessary, and then extra bottles OF
Hyomei can be obtained for soc. 1t is
not alone the best Gt might be called

Perhaps the most enthusiastic trout
fisherman in Alma is the well-known
cigar maker, ]. q. Bright. For years
il has been the heighth of his ambition
20 catch Just one Of the speckled beauties
that he could truthfully say measured
at least three inches longer than the
limited length allowed by law to be
carried home from the stream. DE has
dreamed Ct that time in his sleep and
thought earnestly and longingly during
the day Of the happy moment when his
hearts desire should be granted. de
has faithfully shouldered his rod on the
first day of May for nearly score OF
wears and hied himself to the most avail
able stream where the elusive trout are
supposed to be. But just as many times
would he return detected and saddened,
although not a wiser man, Tor ne was
sure to start out on the same quest when
the first indications OF the fever struck
in the springtime. or as soon as the law
would allow him to do so.
However, he has now reached the goal
he has struggled for so faithfully for
those many years. He no longer walks
with the common herd Of trout cranks,
He is in class alone by himself. he
has caught fish, Of the trout species,
which measured 16 inches from the tiT
of his nose TO the end of his fan like tail.
He and B. N. Mccullough spent the
first day of May on the Twin lakes west
of Riverdale and as result brought
home - beauties, which together
weighed over 10 pounds.

has been President Cassatt's right
hand man. For several years Vice
President Rea investigated the mat
ter of building and operating UNDER
ground railways. He examined every
thing of the kind in this country and
went to Europe two or three times on
the same mission. When the Penn
sylvania management determined to
tunnel the North and the East rivers
and run an underground road across
Manhattan island the general super
vision Of this gigantic undertaking
was turned over to Mr.. Rea. AS an
instance Of his capacity for work it
may be remarked that while fulfilling
his responsibilities to the Pennsyl-
vania railroad Mr.. Rea finds time to
serve as a director with at least twenty
other important corporations. Mr.. Rea
makes most of the purchases for the
Pennsylvania railroad, and the hon
esty and capacity he has displayed in
that department of railroad work is
one reason for the great strength of
the Pennsylvania system.

Tho Porter was not strong enough
to resume his business burdens, he
was the better able in his abundant
leisure to bubble over domestic and
social matters with an invalids unreal
son. He was troubled because Evelyn
would not go out; she had missed
practically all the social gaiety of the
winter by reason of his illness, and he
wished her to feel free to leave him
when she liked. In his careful read
ing Of the newspapers he noted the
items classified under "The Giddy

house, he continued to reprove her for
she would lose prestige by her absti-
nence; but she declared that she had
adopted new rule of life, and that
henceforth she would not go anywhere
without him.
The doctor now advised a change
for Porter, the purpose of which was
to make it impossible for him to re-

Porter quizzed him about it in his
characteristic vein. Saxton was very
patient under his cross examination,
and treasured the banker by his man
ner and his facts. Porter had lost
his cocky, jaunty way, and
after the first interview he
contented himself with asking

previous. Saxton suggested several
times to Fenton that he would relin-
quish tn ereceivership, now that Por-
ter was able to nominate some one to
his own liking. The lawyer would
not have it so. He believed in Saxton
and he felt sure that when Porter
ceiver had accomplished he would be
satisfied. 1t would be foolish to make
change until Porter had fully recov-
cred and was able to take hold of
Traction matters in earnest.
Saxton had suddenly become a per-
son of Importance in the community.

cago has been reduced SO per cent in
fifty years. New York's death rate is
20.61 per 1000, Philadelphia 1888,
Boston 20.82 and Chicago 14.6S. San
Francisco expends for its health de-
partment 81 cents per capita, New

can hardly be attributed to any care

haps Chicago people go away to die.
