Cure catarrh by Natures Own Meth
delivery Breath Of Hyomei Brings
Relief.

Nearly every one who has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and cure
it by drugging the stomach. Tempo
rary relief may be given, but a cure
seldom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way TO cure
catarrh would be to have a change of
climate; but now with Hyomei you
can carry a health giving climate in
your vest pocket and by breathing it
few minutes four times a day soon
cure yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but S1.00 and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
medicine dropper and a bottle of
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts a lifetime,
and if one bottle does not cure. an
extra bottle Of Hyomei can be obtained
for so cents. 1t is the most economical
Of all remedies advertised for the cure
of catarrh. and is the only one that
follows nature i'm her method of treat
ing diseases of the respiratory organs.
Z. James Belt has sold a great many
Hyomei outfits and the more he sells.
the more convinced he is that he is
perfectly safe in guaranteeing to refund
the money If Hyomei does not cure.

TO ATTACK SHOALS
IN CHANNELS WAY
Major Sanford Announces
Commencement of Work at
New Castle Flats

Philadelphia, June f6.-Members Of
the Maritime Exchange and shipping
men IN general were gratifed yester-
day when they heard that Major San
ford. United states engineer I'm charge
of the construction OF the thirty-foot
channel, had decided TO commence work
upon the shoals at New Castle Flats.
They form one OF the worst obstruc-
tions i'm the Delaware TO the admit
tance OF vessels OF deep draught, the
water being only about twenty feet
deep.
Major Sanford said that he intended
10 remove the suction dredge Cum
berland from her present work at
Cherry Island Flats to New Castle
Flats az once, and that IN a short time
he believed the water depth would be
several feet deeper than il is al pres
ent.
To mariners this means much. for at
an the flats there is constant shoaling
and consequently the greatest caution
is required to safely pilot vessel Of
any depth up the river. Even with the
exercise of the greatest vigilance. ves-
sells often get out of the narrow patti
of the channel and are temporarily
4 stranded
Good Work at Cherry Island.
But the excellent work done by thu
dredge Cumberland az Cherry Islant
Flats has TO a great extent removed
this danger from that portion of th'
river when the dredging began al
the flats the river at that point was
only twenty feet deep. or the same as
lit is now at New Castle Flats. In
! speaking Of the work accomplished
Major Sanford said yesterday that tho
depth had been increased 10 from
! ltwenty-four feet TO twenty-six feet
He therefore thought ii inadyisable tC
ldredge to the required thirty feet unit
he had deepened some OF the other parts
OF the river where from eighteen Il
twenty feet is the greatest depth.
Progress Is also being made on the
various bulkheads now In the course
of construction along the river. Al
, Schooner Ledge some delay has beer
encountered owing to the breakdown
Of one Of the drills OF the He'll Gate
plant. 1t was necessary to devise some
way In which the drills could be
llengthened. without lessening theii
strength. before the work could so on
This has now been accomplished and
it is thought that by today or tomorrow
several charges will be placed to blast
a portion of the rock.
