The Northwest Particularly Favored.

No other section of the United States
is so particularly favored regarding trans
portation to the Worlds Fair at st. Louis
as the Northwest, for the reason that the
Minneapolis & st. Louis Railway is the
only road that runs direct to the Fair
clusively has station of it's own directly
at the entrance of the grounds.
This feature will play very Important
part with visitors to the worlds greatest
show from Washington, Oregon, Idaho,
Montana, Manitoba, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota.
1t is also the most direct and shortest route
from the Twin Cities; saw es time and elm
mates that most disagreeable feature OF
travel that one must necessarily meet with
on other lines, namely, the changing from
one car to another enroute.
The NJ. & st. l.. trains arc composed OF
the most modern and latest design of vestl-
buled Pullma an sleepers and reclining chair
cars, and with their buffet, library and e1-
quisite dining cars attached, leaves no want
of the traveller unsupplied in any manner.
Eighteen hours ride from st. Paul or
Minneapolis places one right at the door,
as it we're, of the main entrance to the
Fair Grounds Noar the Minneapolis &
st. Louis station may be found hotels OF
all descriptions, which will save much
worry and anxiety, as well as exhaustion,
to many visitors. For, those who are
compelled to go down town to the Union
their thousands Of passengers from the east
and south, must necessarily travel several
miles in street cars to reach the grounds.
One will get fairly good view of tho
grounds from the large observation win
dows of the M. & st. L. trains, just before
arriving at their exclusive Worlds Fair
station.-We estern Architect.

Continued for 7ODsys Instead of 90 as Origin.
ally Intended.
Beginning with Sept l3, all mail
matter which was received or
transferred at or dispatched
from the local post Office has been
weighed. The weighing was to con-
tnue for 80 days, but it was decided
that 70 days would give as satisfactory
results, and so the weighing of the
mails is to detirminate the compensa-
tion which the railroads shall receive
for carrying the same.
No figures can be obtained for some
time, as it is against the order of the
government to give them to any per-
son other than Superintendent O'Brien
OF Boston, who has charge of the
whole New England district. However
it is learned that there has been a
steady increase since the work was be-
gun. But this is al accounted for in
the fact that people read more as win
ter approaches and also as there is
always an increase of mail during the
holiday season. So it is notprobabIe
that much, if any more mail has been
handled at the local station than usual
at this time of the year.

GIVES RELIEF QUICKLY
Regular Use Of HyOmei Cures Most
Stubborn Case Of Cat
aTh.

No other medicine gives such
prompt relief as Hyomei in treatment
of ratarrh.
The fret breath of this remedy
soothes and heals the irrItated aud
smarting air passages, and the regu-
lar use for a few days or weeks will
cure the most stubborn case. Some
of the reports of those who have been
cured OF catarrh by Hyomei read like
miracles,
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
Sl00, consisting Of an inhaler, drop
per and sufficient Hyomei to last sew
eral weeks. This will effect cure in
ordinary cases, but for chronic and
deep-sested cases of catarrh, longer
use may be necessary, and then extra
bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for
30 cents.
Probably the strongest evidence that
can be offered as to the powers of Hyo-
mel to cure catarrh is the fact that
Druggist Gokay will agree to refund
the money if you say that Hyomei has
not helped you.

BACK TO MY OWN.

My first impulse as left the hut was
to go back to the sudya and tell him all
l had discovered-tell him that 1 knew
he was the cause of my fathers death.
and that the innocent blood of myrpoor
mother was on him; tell him that was
not yet strong enough to kill him, but
should find vengeance for my parents
blood. But after 1 had gone a few
PAGES back over the road that led to
zamok / realized how useless such
step would be. With these thoughts
still torturing my brain I returned, and
as If fearing my own will 1 began to
run.
The weather had slightly changed
during the night; the hail and snow
had ceased falling, and the warm
caress of the rising sun turned the fur
rowed fields into splashy mud and
slush At every step l could scarcely
free my foot from the Shiny mud, and
my boots squashed like croaking frogs

soon conscious Of sweet and alluring
air Ginning in my ears; a soothing
sensation passed through my frame; a
charming picture presented itself be-
fore me-Katiai 1 felt the thrill of
hope as this vision filtted through my
mind. Again my heart was burning
with a craving desire; again my blood
was flowing warmer and swifter: again
an almost irresistible impulse was fore
ing me back to Zamok-go back and
read of the same book with her; feel
the touch of her locks against my
burning cheeks; hear her say again,
why, you foolish Israel, then I'll
marry you'-and forget-forget my
father and her father and everything
that embittered my heartl
