HOW TO PRONOUNCE HYoMEI.
II. Goodman Tells of This Remarkable
Treatment That Cures Catarrh With
out Stomach Dosing.

while all my customers who have
used Hyomei agree that it is remark
ably successful in curing catarrh and
other diseases of the air passages, -
says H. Goodman, yet there has been
considerable diversity of opinion as to
how the name is pronounced"
'Hyomei is pronounced just as if it
were spelled 'high-o-me,' with the ac-
cent on the first syllable
"A great many come to my store and
instead of asking for Hyomei, tell me
they want a package of the treatment
for catarrh that 1 am selling on a
guarantee"
While 1 know what they mean and
all of my clerks will give them Hyo-
mel, yet 1 want every one to know just
how to pronounce the name Of Hyomei
so that they may run no chance of
getting anything but Hyomei, no mat
ter where they go.

al troubles. 1t kills the germs of this

A PLEASING ENTERTAINMENT.
Clever Athletic Performance at the
Doris Theatre Last Night.

The athletic entertainment promoted /
by Ben Steffen and held in the Doris
theater last night proved a very salts

was good natuTed and harmonious and
the sparring contests We're greatly
enjoyed. Previous to the sparring ex-
hibit!Cns there was a short but pleas
ing programme of a varied nature. i

The heroic sport of the evening was
next announced, Paul Kruger being
announcer Tom Linville the timekeep-
er. Frank CaVallieri the referee and
score or more of trainers looking after
the towels, water bottles, blood buck
cts, sponges, boxing gloves, etc. Vari-
Gus and sundry physicians were in the
audience but none Of them got a job
and there wasn't an undertaken in
the city that profted financially by the
incident.
The only unfortunate incident of the
entertainment was the first bout be
tween +. Hartman and Young Gilbert.
1t was planned for n six round go: two
minutes to the round. The men knew
they were capable, for they had been
training together for some weeks and
had in quarters gone eight three min
ute rounds without distressing fatigue.
But the bout last night lasted only Il
round and a half. owing to an accident.
The sparring took place on the stage
floor, there being at that time no pad
ding, sawdust or anything to. keep the
feet from slipping. In the middle of
the second round Hartman noted Gil
bert leading for his jaw and figured on
taking the blow but breaking its force
with his shoulder, coming back with q
punch in the stomach or breast from
below. Just as he threw up his Shout
der his foot slipped and he fell back
ward, Gilbert at the same time deliver
ing the expected blow on the jaw, Civ
ing him a double impetus when he
struck the floor. The blow did not hurt
him, but the contact with the floor
dazed him for an instant and when he
came up Gilbert, of course, did not hit
him, for the programme was not ar
ranged with 4 view Of hurting anybody
or knocking anybody out. The bout
was declared off and Gilbert was given
the decision. Then the management
proceeded to cover the floor with resin
and the subsequent events occurred in
good order. The first round was a
good exhibition and ELECTED great en-
thusiasm. Were it not for the accident
the bout would have proved a. very fine
one. Young Gilbert is q fine muscled
man and training would make n

PINE PRODUCTS

Lumber is by no means themost impor-

several turpentine distelleiries operated
in the county, which furnish superior
quality Of turpentine and naval stores.
Only a few years ago the pine forests Of
Lee were practically untouched by the
axe of the turpentine distiller, but now
there are only few woods that have not
been turpentined. This industry now is
one Of the most profitable employmeuts
which the fosests offer.

There are many saw mills situated at va

CROPS

The assertion has often been made, and
is essentially true, that practically every
thing that can be raised in Georgia, car
be raised in Lee County, thoe@h this ser
ton, like the whole state Of Georgia is
prominently cotton producing region,
nevertheless many other valuable crops
such as corn, hay, potatoes. oats, peas,
sugar, cane and sorga1h, are raised in
abundance.
Lee County is unsurpassed as a fruit
raising section. Watermellons and canta-
1oupes of the finest varieties are harvested
at splendid profits, Peaches, as has been
said before, may be shipped from here
ahead of the orchards in the Peach Belt.
Large orchards of pecans are being plan
ted throughout the country. Two variet-
les of pears LeConte Kieffer, grow on Lee
County soil and Produce large crops Of
splendid fruit. Apples, Figs, plums
and many other fruit Of less importance,
are easily grown,

are easily grown.
SrocK-RAIsINe.

Although it is common in sections
where cotton is the principal crop to neg
lect stock-raising, the farmers of Lee
County are realizing the importance of
this industry, Mules ard horses that
stand the hardest work and driving are
now being raised by the progressive farm
ers of the County, Hogs and Cattle are
raised extensively for meat, most farmers
raising all the meat necessary for them
selves during the years. This is an indus
try whose rapid development is meaning
much for the county in many ways.
