CHOKING CATARRH CURED.
Your Money Back if Hyomei Does
Not Cure You.

Use Hyomei and be cured Of ca
tarrh," is what all who have used il
say to their friends.
1t is the easiest thing in the world
to stop catarrh at its beginning if you
use Hyomei. Just breathe the health
giving, balsamic air for few minutes
and your catarrh will be cured. In
the worst cases Of this disease, chronic
or acute, Hyomei used four or five
times a day is all that is needed to
soon effect cure.
In this city and neighboring towns,
there are hundreds who can testify to
the remarkable powers of Hyomei to
cure catarrh. Many Of the stauncest
friends of this remedy today began its
use with little hope that they would
be cured, but as the Peoples Drug
Store offered to refund the money if
it did not cure, they decided to try it
on that plan, and were soon restored
to health.

Catbirds Defeat Blacksnake.

A writer in the Scientific American says: T witnessed a pair of catbirds making bold defense against black snake bent on devouring the contents of their nest. At first the snake was in- clined to disregard the distressed birds as they fought to drive it away, but the blows of their wings and bills became 90 annoying that the thief had to seek refuge in flight. On reaching the roots of tree from which the river had washed the dirt the snake started to climb, only to be driven beneath them and then out to an old stump, under which the bafiled and beaten reptile took refuge"

BATTLING WITH AN ANCHOR.
Mammoth MudhooI< Was Difficult to Handle When the Waves
 Were Tossing 1t.

To hoist to the cat-head an anchor weighing 5000 pounds, with gale of wind blowing and a tremendous sea rising, is difficult task. The New York Sun tells how this work was under taken on a war-ship in Hampton Roads. In order to raise the anchor to the deck of the ship the hundred-pound cat-block had to be fastened by the huge hook which depended from 1t to the ring in the balancing band on the anchor shank so that the power of the winch could be utilized.
 The great anchor hung so that when the wave receded it was clear of the water, but each incoming crest sub merged it several feet As the ship tossed on the waves there was great danger that the enormous weight of the anchor would send the anchor through her thin plating. But with seas big enough to toss the ship about as easily as if she were but fishing float, and to swing that anchor back and forth like the pendulum of toy clock it was no child's game to hook the cat block.
 Two men were chosen, each fine specimen of the American sailor. Just under the arms of each line was made fast, and men on deck stood ready to haul away in case of need.
 The two sailors watched their chance, and when the ships head was well out of water, over they went. They had hardly reached the anchor when a wave rolled in that surged four feet above their heads. When it passed both were clinging, almost breathless. to the shank of the anchor.
 But the instant they were clear of wa ter they jumped to their work and strove to get the block in place. With the ship hauling one way and the wind blowing another there was small chance for them to drag that hundred-pound block in still third way. Again and again they had it almost fastened, when a great wave knocked it away and bur fed them far out of sight Still the two men struggled at their task.
 Then the inevitable happened. The great cat-block swung far out as the ship plunged forward, hung poised an instant, as if taking deliberate aim and came sweeping back straight at the head of one of the two men. It struck him on the back of the head and knocked him ten feet from the anchor into the sea.
 The rush of an incoming wave swept him away from the ship, and for mo- ment it. seemed as if he would surely be lost Then was justified the wis dom which had placed the line about his shoulders. The men on deck drew him in, unconscious but safe, and in ten minutes he was declaring to the of ficer in charge that he could surely hook that block the next time.
 But the captain had formed another plan. He determined to haul up the anchor as far as was possible, so that it should have the smallest room for play, and to make harbor Just at nightfall she reached quiet waters, and once more the unruly anchor was let go again.
