CHOKING CATARRH CURED
Mr.. Caswell Says, "Hyomel Cured
Me."-Your Money Back If 1t
Does Not Cure You.

"Use Hyomel and be cured OF ca
tarrb," is what all who have tried it
for that disease say to their friends.
U. S. CasWell OF North Middleboro,
Mass, writes: ''Hyomei has re-
lieved me from a choking catarrhal
trouble and cleared my. head. | am
glad to recommend it to my friends.
1T is the easiest thing in the world
to stop catarrh or a catarrhal cold at
the beginning il you use IIyomei.
Just breathe the health-giving,
balsamic air for a few minutes and
your catarrh will be cured.
In this and %neighbolins towns
there are hundreds that can testify
TO the remarkable powers Of Hyomei
to cure catarIh. Many or the
staunchest friends Of this remedy be-
gan its use with little hope that
they would be cured, but as Scallin
Bros. offered to refund the money il
it did not benefit. they decided to
try it on that plan and were soon
restored TO health.

than a conCiliatCry manner.
This determination was promptly ar
rived at when the Texas orator reached
town last night He declined absolutely
to permit the use Of his name for the
post OF permanent chairman Of the con
vention, and minated strongly that all
he wanted was a chance to tell Bryan
in public just what some Democrats
thought Of his attempts to create disCOn-
tent and disCord in the party ranks.
Bailey has lOng awaited just such an
opportunity. and will grasp il with de-

Some months ago he contemplated
giving out an interview attacking
Bryans presumption In debating 20 the

feared such action would put him in the

finder. So he desisted and awaited his
chance. This, it seems, is now at hand.

TO SOLVE PROBLEM
OF CREDENTIALS

ST. LOUIS. July 5.-When the creden-

setts contest il will have a new prob
lem TO solve. The decision will estab-
lish a precedent Of great Importance.
The question involved is the right Of
a State convention 10 adopt the unit rule
for district conventions not yet held.
The custom in the Bay State is for
the State convention to select Delegates
at-large before the district conventions
are held. This year II took a step in
advance and adopted the unit rule for
all delegates.
This affected some Hearst delegates

righted what he considers a srievOus 20
