COSTS NOTHING UNLESS CURED.
A Fair Offer Made by r.. r. Beliamy
to all Sufferers from COtarrh.

r. r. Bellamy is selling Hyomei on
plan that has caused considerable
talk amongst his customers.
The plan is different from that fol-
lowed by other remedies, but the rerl-
edy itself is different also. This treat
ment for the cure of catarrh has such
an unusual record of cures TO its credi:
that r K. Bellamy offers to refund
the money il it does not give the desir-
Cd benefit. This Is certainly one OF
the fairest offers that can be made
and any one who has satarrh and does
not take advantage OF IT is doing him
self or herself an injustice.
The Hyomei treatment consists of a
small hard rubber inhaler that can be
carried in the vest pocket Or purse.
a medicine dropper and bottle OF
Hyomei. The complete treatment
costs but S1.O0 and as the inhaler will
last life time the medicine is very
inexpensive. Many people who have
used il write that for the good Hyo-
ei has done them they would willingly
pay thousands of-dolIars.
Extra bottles OF Hyomei can be pro-
cured for use with the inhaler at SOC.
Do not suffer any longer with tick

SENATOR HOAR DYING.
His Physicians Say that He Cannot
Live More Than Three Days

Worcester, Mass, Aug. 17.-Senat Or
George Frisbie Hoar is dying. His
physicians and also his son, General
lockwood Hoar said today that the
venerable Senator would not live more
than three days. Senator Hoar's i'll
ness began several weeks ago with
lumbago and last night he suffered a
relapse, which his relatives fear, makes
his case hopeless.
lockwood HOar sun OF Senator
Hoar, said today that the SENATOR s
system seems to be worn out. In fact
he was so greatly exhausted that re-
cuperation from his trouble, which
otherwise would have been insignif-
cant, seemed impossible. The Sana-
tors breakdown began at Washing
ton during the last session of congress
with the death of Mrs Hoar, which
occurred suddenly. The attachment
between the aged couple was well
known and it was remarked at the
time, in view of the Senator's age that
he would not long survive His mind
is perfectly clear and ne seems COM
paratively free from pain, but since
last nights relapse no hope has been
given that he can recover. Senator
Hoar was resting quietly at 11:30 to-
night, under the influence of opiates,
He has suffered very little pain today
Senator Hoar's mind was perfectly
clear UP to the time the opiates were
administered

lSpeciaI 10 The MeSscnger.1
Clinton, Y. c.. August 1.-THE
postoffice here was robbed last night.
The door OF the safe was blown or
with nitro-glycerine, and about four
hundred dollars in postage stamps and
forty dollars in money were taken.
The robbery was evidently the work
of professional burglars. 1t occurred
about 2 o'clock, and was not discov-
cred until Postmaster Dameron came
down to make up his mail for the out
going morning train. The explosion
was not heard by any one except the
operator, young man, in the tele-
phone exchange located on the second
floor of the building. He said the re-
port sounded like a pistol. There Is
no clue to the robbers and it is not
known in what direction they went.
The postoffice department was
promptly advised by wire of the rob-
berry and has the matter in hand. An
effort 10 rob this Office was made last
winter, but failed, because of timely
discovery and a general alarm result
ing in turn out of armed citizens.

Another Account of the Robbery.
Especial to The Messenger.)

Goldsboro, August 17.-rhe Clinton
postoffice was blown open last night
and robbed of three hundred dollars in
stamps and about forty dollars in
money. This information was receiv-
ed here this morning in the shape OF
a telegram to the chief of police from
Mr.. A. w. Man. the sheriff OF Samp-
son county. The telegram asks the
chief to look out for a low, thick-set
man, wearing dark clothes and q
black feN hat and weighing about
one hundred and eighty-five pounds,
who is supposed to be about thirty
years Of age. He was accompanied
by tall man with stopped shoulders,
light complexion, light beard about
two weeks old, who weighed about
one hundred and sixty-five. The lat
ter had on heavy shoes, with thick
soles and wore a dark suit torn and
sewed in the back.
This is one of several postoffice rob-
berries that have been committed in a
short distance of Goldsboro within
the past two years. The postoffice at
Mt. Olive has been robbed twice in
that length of time, the bank of La
Grange has also been robbed and the
postoffice and a private safe at Kenly
has been robbed. The police here az
using all diligence to apprehend and
bring to justice the parties who COM
mitted The robbery last night. but it
is not thought that their efforts will
avail anything, as the robbers would
not come to town like Goldsboro
right away and if they did they would

Affects the Brain and Is Responsible
For Heart Disease and Apoplexy.
lChieao Chronicle.l

Or. Chalmers Prentice told the mem
bers Of the Illinois Optical society So
ciety at the annual meeting which was
held recently that many men died of
apoplexy and heart failure because
they abused their eyes
Men come from the farm to the city
and break down because OF the strain
upon their eyes said the optician as
he advanced to the speakers table The
annual session was held in the Masonic
temple.
In the country their eyes are accus-
toned 10 long distances. They 90 on UNI
III middle age without continuing them
selves to an office. Then suddenly
they come to city. After that their
eyes must be used in work that is con-
filming. The result is that they break
down prematurely. People wonder
what caused it. They are right when
they attribute it il 10 the sudden change
IN the mode of life. But il is the unu-
suat test upon the eyes that causes the
snap.
) Men who break down and die of
heart disease and apOplexy are often
the victims of their own short sighted

properly. The test is too severe. The
eyes respond by undermining the in

Be drung by the single survivor Of a
little band of twenty soldiers of the

unique of the kind on record. After the
close of hostilitieT with Mexico twenty
of the veterans who went 10 the front
from Foutain county. Indiana, met in
reunion. This was in lSA9 1t was voted
to assemble pearly thereafter on
Thanksgiving day.
At the first dinner n bottle of wine
was presented TO the little comnany.
and in a half joking manner one sug-
gested that the bottle remain uncorked
until but one survivor remained. this
one to quaff the wine TO the memory of
those gone before. The idea met with
instant favor and il was so agreed
Each year the annual dinner has been
held and each one more closely cement

the plains of Mexico. For years at the
annual gatherings the bottle has Occu-
pied a place Of honor at the head of
the tabale and was annually the subject
OF merry jeSts and predictions as TO

III the average person was asked his
or her opinion OF opals. the reply would
almost invariably be of this nature:
"Opals are certainly very beautiful
but then you know, it is so unIucky to
wear them. unless you happen to be
born in October"
The origin of Il superstition is always
hard to find and no exception can be
made in the case Of the one concern
ing the opal. tt is not at all unlikely
that the widespread feeling Of distrust
with which the opal is regarded origi-
mated with the narrative Of Donner-

membered how the mysterious and i'll
fated Baroness Hernione invariably
wore in her auburn tresses golden
clasp which was ornamented with a
superb opal. This gem. which she never
removed except for n few moments
while her hair was being cOmbed. was
possessed of a peculiar quality When

apprehensive when any water was
brought near it, and when, at the chris
tening of her child. a drop of holy
water lighted on the opal il win ne
remembered how the stone shot out a
spark like a falling star and instantly
became lightless and colorIess az a
common pebble. ~The baroness sank
to the ground with a cry of pain. and
was carried to her chamber a dying Wo-
man. This mysterious lady. who had
appeared so suddenly, disappeared as
suddenly, for few hours afterward
nothing could be seen of the late bar
oness except a handful of light gray
ashes.
Tt may be considered improbable that
so prevalent a superstition should be
based on such slender grounds as a
fairy tale in one Of Sir Walter SCOTS
novels, bt such appears 20 be the case,
as it would be dimcult TO find an ac-
tual case where the successive wearers
of an opal have been dogged with bad
luck. Such stories are frequent. but
their origin, like that of SO many
ghost stories. is probably entirely myth
ical
Il is possible, however that the So
called i'll luck of the opal is due TO the
fact that the stone is a soft one, and if
exposed TO constant friction is liable
TO become loose and fan out. It is very
necessary that Opals should be securely
set, but, whatever the setting, il is al
ways advisable TO give the stones a
careful scrutiny from time TO time. and
not to expose them to undue wear and
tear. If this is done. there seems to
be no valid reason why the opal should
be regarded as bringing i'll luck TO the

verse seems TO be the case.
1t is well known that the late Queen
Victoria, who was blessed with pro

parure Of opals and diamonds. II can
