CURES WITHOUT
STOMACH DOSING.
HyOmei Cures Catarrh by Simple Breath
ing Dawson Drug Co. Refunds
Money if It Fails to Cure.


A long stride toward solving the
mystery of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In
fact, the percentage of cures by this
treatment proves it equal to the final
tests.
The folly of taking medicines into
the stomach to cure catarrh of the
nose, throat and lungs has been real
lied oy physicians, but not until Hy'
omei was known had they practical
method that would obYiate stomach
druggiug.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists of neat pocket in
haler that can be used anywhere with
out attracting attention medicine
dropper and bottle of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the in
haler, every particle of air that enters
the nose, throat and lungs is charged
with a healing balsam that sOothes
and aIlays all irritation, kills the ca
tarrhal germs and enriches the blood
with additional ozone.
Dawson Drug Co. have so much faith
in the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh
that they are selling it under their
personal guarantee TO refund the mon
ey if 1t does not give positive relief.

Lord UlIin's Daughter.


Lord Ul1in's Daughter.
A chieftain to the Highlands bound.
Cries, "Boatman, do not tarryi
And I'll give thee silver pound
To row US DER the ferry"
"Now, who be We, would cross Lochgyles
This dark and stormy water?"
20, I'm the chief of Ulva's Isle,
And this Lord Ullin's daughter.
"And fast before her fathers men
Three days we've fed together,
For should he find us in the glen,
My blood would stain the heather.
His horsemen hard behind us ride;
Should they our steps discover,
Then who will cheer my bonny bride
When they have slain her loverp'
Outspoke the hardy Highland wight
'I'll go, my chief-Im ready;
1t is not for your silver bright,
But for your winsome lady.
"And by my world the bonny bird
In danger shall not larry;
So though the waves are raging white,
I'll row you DER the ferry"
By this the storm grew loud apace,
The water wrath was shrieking;
And in the scowl of heaven each face
Grew dark as they were speaking.
But still as wilder blew the wind,
And as the night grew drearer,
Adown the glen rode armed men,
hofr 4ror aH
20, haste thee, haste!' the lady cries
Though tempests round us gatherI
I'll meet the raging of the skies,
But not an angry father
The boat has left a stormy land,
A stormy sea before her,
When, o. too strong for human hand,
The tempest gathered DER her.
; And still they rowed amidst the roar
OF waters fast prevailing;
Lord Ullin reached that fatal shore;
His wrath was changed to wailing.
; For sore dismayed, through storm an
| shade,
His child he did discover;
: One lovely hand she stretched for aid,
And one was round her lover.
"Come backl come backr' he cried
grief,
d ACROSS this stormy water;
9 And I'll forgive your Highland chief,
J. My daughter! o, my daughter"
y Twas vain; the loud waves dashed t
shore,
Return or aid preventing
Z The waters wild went DER his child,
/ And he was left lamenting.

Against Idleness and Mischief.

Against IdIene~s and Mischief.
How doth the little bus bee
Improve each shining hour,
And gather honey all the day
From every opening flowerl
How skillfully she builds her cell!
How neat she spreads her wax!
And labors hard to store it well
With the sweet food she makes.
In works of labor or of skill,
l would be busy, too;
For Satan finds some mischief still
For idle hands to do.
In books, or work or healthful play,
Let my first years be passed,
That l may give for every day
Some good account at last.
