JUST BREATHE IT.
Pleasant WaJ to Cure CatarIh
Dangerous Stomach Dragging
Avoided By Using HyOmsi.

A noticeable improvement and a
clearing up of the air passages of the
head and throat is seen from the first
days use of Hyomei. This treatment
is the only natural and reasonable way
to cure catarrb. 1t has been so uni
formly successful that Druggist Co
kay sells it under a positive guaran-
tee to refund the money if it should
fail. Pills, tablets, liquids aud other
stomach drugging cannot cure catarrh.
Under such treatment the catarrhal
germs still live in the air passages and
Increase and multiply.
Hyomei breathed through the neat
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
enters the air passages of the head,
throat and lungs, killing all catarrhal
germs, soothing the irritated mucous
membranes and effecting a permanent
cure.
The complete outfit costs only one
dollar and will last for several weeks.
If more Hyomei is needed, extra bot
ties can be obtained for so cents
The directions for using Hyomei are
very simple. Twenty drops of the liq-
uid will charge the inhaler. Breathe
through this !or few minutes four
times day and the medicated air is
carried to the most remote and minute
cells of the air passages, giving results
that can be obtained in no other way.
Tell your friends who may be suffer
ing with catarrh or catarrhal colds
about this unusual way of selling
medicine for the cure of catarrh. You
run no risk when buying Hyomei.

THE FACTS AND NOTHING ELSE ARE WHAT YOU
WILL FIND IN OUR ADVERTISEMENTS
s:9:933A 33a3G@.@e

Too many stores advertise daily. Special Sale
''Price Reductions" To the average reader these
words have grown synonymous with certain stores
that seem to mark the establishments as being run
upon purely phanthropc principles. The thought
full reader is left to decide between two questions Is
John Smiths store with its wholesale price reductions
and weekly special sales open for the spiritual glory
of its owner the attractions merely the wordy
bait to tempt gulble customers to visit the store?
In either case there is a loss of confidence on the
publics part However much bargain may appear
to be of true value deception must early or late
rest the attention and shake the public faith in the
Firms honesty. 1t would seem the special sale from
being an exception has become the rule with many
advertisers all price reductions represented
then the profits regular goods must be enormous
at such stores 1t is quite true that goods really
advertised at regular prices, therefore the practice
still accuses for the socalled reduction being based
on purely fictitious values not reductions at all
Our ads are a straightforward presentation of the
facts about the goods, just you'll find them in the
store.
The path through our store is strewn with good
values look for them.

Washington, Jan. 1s.-wealthy Am

italian antiques. according to report
from r. b. Keene, consul at Florence
TIe says antiques OF every kind and
epoch are easily to be had. and most of
them are such clever limitations as to re-
auire experts to detect the deception.
The most competent Judges are the
officials OF the government galleries,
whose duty II is 10 inspect and seal all
cases Of art works intended for ex-
portation. whenever they find any really
ancient pieces they hinder their exporta-
tion. with the result that the govern
ment eventually secures them, but this
does not prevent thousands OF cases
which are classified as ancient works
OF art" from being shipped to the United
States and other countries every year
and sold at fancy prices.

FEWER DANCES
Rigid Inspection Of City Halls Prevents
Granting Of Many Licenses.

The rigid requirements OF Spencer b.
Hopkins. the Inspector of buildings. in re-
gard to the halls about the city. is put
tins a damper on many OF the public
and private dances which have been SO
widely held in all parts OF the city.
Owing TO the new rules no licenses are
granted for dances or plays unless the
hall or building In which IL Is to be given
ncets with the approval of the inspector.
In some cases where tickets have been
sold and everything planned for dances
and concerts they have been abandoned
at the last minuate because the inspector
OF buildings withheld his approval.
He stated today that in case OF fire or
pai.ic the responsibility would rest on him
and said he declined to accept any such
responsibility and consequently will not
give II unless the changes he deems
necessary are made.
The inability TO secure permits for the
dances and entertainments Is caus-
ing a considerable loss to the proprietors
OF the buildings and at present carpen-
te-S and builders are very much in de-
ma nd In some quarters.
