this way that G. v. Jones is selling
! Hyomei. the treatment that has made
so many remarkable cures OF both
azure and chronic cltarrh IA Union

Hyomei is not pill nor is it

Tablespoon or wineglass. Just breathe
u by the aid of an inhaler that comes
In every outfit, and benefit will be
seen from the first treatment
1T destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
puriiies the blood with additional
ozone. It cures catarrh in the head
and throat, or OF the stomach, liver
and kidneys. Wherever mucous mem
brance contains catarrhal germs, there
HyOmei will do its work of healing.
When using this treatment, the air
you breathe will be found like that on
the mountains high above the sea
level, where grow balsamlc trees and
plants which make the air pure by
giving of volatile antiseptic fragrance
that is healing to the respiratory or
gans
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but

and sufficient Hyomei for several
weeks treatment.
Remember that If Hyomei does not
cure you G. V. Jones will refund your
money, This is good time to cure
catarrh by this natural method and
prevent catarrahal colds that are so
common at this season.

Miss Ina Long, of Union City.
IS visiting home folks and friend,
in and around Pleasant Hill this
week. Miss Ina is very popular
with our folks, and this vicinity
has never produced young lady
that it has more cause to be proud
IF than her, and the longer one
knows her the better they love
her.
We had the honor of grasping
the hand of our old bachelor friend,
Mr.. Will Moffat, once citizen of
Rives, but now of Chicago, where
he is in the employ of the l. G. r.
r. Co., one day during Christmas
week. He says he reads, with
much interest, our weekly com
munication to The Commercial and
also said he lived near Professor
Wright, of Obion county fame as
teacher. Now it does seem to
me that some young ladies might
have mercy on his soul and fur
nish the sweet companionship that
every old bachelor so yearns for.
We notice that he has added to his
already graceful form of speech
the down-easter brogue and would
pass for real up-to-date yankee.
Died, al or near Pleasant Hill,
December "a, 1908, of a lingering
illness, the Pleasant Hill Debating
Society. 1t had been in declining
health since the marriage of Miss
Nellie KitcheIl, and its care had
fallen on the shoulders of inexpe
rienced nurses, and it died for the
want of sympathy, proper nour.
ishment and love. 1t was once the
leading society belle of Obion
county and the pride of District
Number -Four, but the young men
from various sections of the coun-
try have come and plucked our
fairest flowers, and one, by one,
they have gone to fill the places of
wife, mother and cook and share
the fortunes and misfortunes and
bless the homes and society of
other neighborhoods with their
presence, without our consent,
until to day we are . forsaken,
heartbroken, lonesome and sad,
and may the Lord have mercy on
US. This deceased friend was once
very popular. She boosted of her
religious reputation, being repre-
sented by four denominations, a
dourishing literary school, grand
and interesting Sunday school, q
Christian Endeavor with junior
and boosted of the
most interesting entertainments on
Christmas and national holidays of
any vicinity around US. 1t leaves
! host of relatives and synpathiz-
ng friends to mourn its death,
which was caused by old, stub
bern, lazy, stay at-home, don't
care, careless, uninterested nam
mics and daddies, like John Bar
eycorn and wife.

asst Sunday Mrs. Geo. Cummings,
