Tendency of the Times.

The tendency Of medical science is
toward preventive meaures. The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier
and better to prevent than to cure.
1t has been fully demonstrated that
pneumonia, n Of the most danger
Gus diseases thai medical men have
to contend with, can be prevented by
the use of Ghamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always result
from a cold or from an attack of in
fluenza grip, and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts
any tendency Of these diseases
toward pneuomnia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence Of
colds and grip in recent years, and
can be relied upon with implicit con
tidence. Pneumonia often results
from a slight cold when no danger
is appIehended until it is suddenly
discovered that there is fever and
difficulty in breathing and pains in
the chest, and then it is announced
that the patient has pneumonia. Be
on the safe side and take Chamber
1ains' Cough Remedy as soon as the
cold is contracted. 1t always cures.
For sale by all druggists.

lCuRgs WITHOUT sTe1asccR DOSING
Hyomei Cures catam'h by Simple
Rreathing-scallin Bros, Re-
fund Money if 1t Fails
IN rn,e

A long stride toward solving the
mystery OF curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In
fact. the percentage of cures by this
treatment proves its equal to the
final tests.
The folly of taking medicines INTO
the stomach to cure catal1h of the
nose, throat and lungs, has been
realized by physicians. but not until
Hyomei was known, had they a prac-
tical method that would obviate
stomach drugging.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, and consists OF a neat pocket
inhaler that can be used anywhere
without attracting attention. a med
icine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the in
haler, every particle Of air that en-
tiers the nose, thIoat and lungs, is
charged with a healing balsam that
soothes and allayes all irritation,
kills the catarrhal germs and enrich
es the blood with additional ozone.
Scallin Bros. have so much faith in
the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh,
that they are selling it under their
personal guarantee to refund the
money il it does not give positive
relief.

prumeaar,e. Smoke cixnr..

There is no reason why a dromedary
should not be partial to a good cigar.
Most ~dromedaries, according to a me-
nagerie proprietor, are particularly
fond of tobacco smoke and can be made
to do almost anything under its intlu-
ence.
Travellers in Egypt" he asserts, re
ly more on tobacco smoke for their con-
troll over these luge beasts than any.
thing else. When travelling on long
journeys the dromedarics are i'll many
cases required to travel night and day
without rest, and the beasts are kept
up to their tasks by smoking cigars.
The driver carries a triangular piece OF
wood, which is pierced at one point
like a cigar holder. This is inserted in
the mouth of the beast, the cigar being
lit and pressed into the hole in the same
fashion followed by man.
"The dromedary Immediately closes
Its eyes and puffs away through its nos
trils until the cigar is burned away.
The indulgence appears to refresh it.
and the keeper has no diff culty in per
suading the animal to plod on without
further rest."-Pearson's.

rhe French Dcra,y,. peroui.n...

a French deputy receives a salary OF
1000 francs. He also receives free rail-
way transportation and free l%unchcons
at the bar of the Pulais Bourbon. where
many a lawmaker spends more time
than he does in the Sale DIES Seances.
Some are accused of taking all their
meals at the free lunch counter. A
deputy even gets at reduced rates a
special brand of cigar which is called
"cigare de deputies" With these cigars
he treats his influential constituents.
In spite of all these privileges there
have been many complaints that unless
he has a large personal income a dep
uty cannot live decently. Therefore
many members of parliament when
they are not well to do have to make up
for the insufficiency of their pay by
contributing to newspapers or pleading
in the courts.-Century.

AN UNIQUE PARTY
Mrs. S. c. Jones Entertained Part,
of a Washington Birthday
Naturs Monday.

Mis-. S. G. Jones gave a five O'Clock
tea Monday afternoon which took on
the nature of a Washington birthday
affair. The rooms we're handsomely
draped with flags and the national
colors, while the picture of Washing
ton occupied a prominent place.
The door was attended by Harry
Rathbun, who was dressed in a
Washington costume. Tables were
placed in the various rooms and
they were decorated with carna-
tions, and the entire scene through
out the house was very pretty. The
tea was served in four courses and
the hostess was assisted by Mrs. f.
II. Wlnsor, Mrs. A. B. Hager, Miss
Florence Fosdick, Miss Bessie
Thompson and Miss Ethel Lyons.
During the serving of the tea the
guests entertained with piano
and flute selections by Miss Alice
and Frank Jones. The place cards
at the tables were indeed unique.
-
They were pictures of the birthplace
OF Washington and colonial scenes
'and were retained as souvenirs. On
the reverse side of the cards the
guests were requested to write the
names of the twenty five presidents
of the United states in the order Of
their administrations. Mesdames
Thompson, Burns, Boyce, Blynn,
Walrath and Coursey were the sue
cessful ones, and they cut for the
prize, which was won by Mrs. Blynn.
The method Of entertaining by the
hostess was highly endorsed by the
guests and they expressed many kind
words at taking their departure.

Reproduced the Cantata.

The seventh and eighth grades OF
the city schools, under the direction
Of Misses Grace and VandeBogart,
repeated Amercia's Cantata at the
opera house Monday evening by re-
quest of the Woman's Library Asso-
citation. The proceeds will be used
for the purchase of books for the
children's corner in the library.
The attendance was very good in
deed, considering the unpleasant
weather in the early part Of the
evening. The cantatag is divided in
to two parts, the first being the in
PRODUCTION of the representatives Of
all nations, each of whom appeared
in costume and addressed the Cod
dess Of Liberty. The second part
was made w of drills and %choruses,
all Of which were very interesting,
and displayed much work on the part
of the teachers who had the affair
in charge. One Of the prettiest was
the drill of the original thirteen
states, each OF the girls being
dressed in a national costume. The
military drill by three companies un-
der command of Captain George Win
sor. Captain Glenn Rowley and Cap
tain Charles Jones was we'll done,
and the boys finished up with a roll
licking good song. The entertain
ment ciosed with all the characters
on the stage and they sans "Colum-
bia, the Gem of the Ocean," Miss
Florence Winsor and Frank Winsol
and Walter Adams furnished the
music for the evening. James Greg.
DRY is entitled to much credit fol
drilling the boys and girls in the
marches. The entertainment was q
fine success throughout and it was
enjoyed very much indeed by the au,
dience. If the expenses are not too
great there will be quite a little
sum of money left with which TO pur'
chase books for the library.

A FINE ENTERTAINMENT
Seventh Attraction on tue Lecture
Course Was a Most Excel
lent Une.

There was not much cause for
criticism in the entertainment given
by the Central Grand Concert Co.
at the opera house Tuesday evening,
which was the seventh attraction Of
the lectute ana concert course. Mr..
George Champion, Ihe basso cantan-
tie, was easily the star of the evening
and his singing gave the utmost sat-
isfaction. Mr.. Champion has a
powerful voice, of wide range and
the manner in which he uses and
controls it speaks volumes Of praise
for his artistic work. His selections
are admirably suited to his voice and
every one of them was thoroughly en-
jOyable. he sings with a depth of
feeling that makes his work all the
o appreciated. Mr.. Champion is
a comparatively new man in the west
but that he is winning his way into
The hearts of the people there is no
question. Miss Agnes Pringle, the
vioIinist, was nearly all that could
be desired. What she lacks in power
she makes up In tone and 5rilliancy
of execution. While her numbers
were much Of the same style Of mu-
sic yet each selection brought forth
some new beauties Under her magic
touch. Miss Maude Chappelle, who
is a substitute for Mrs. George, was
winning in her ways, and her voice
showed good training. Her work
was hardly up to the standard Of
the other members Of the company.
Walter. A Pyck, the pianist, had to
play his way into favor, but that he
did so is unquestioned. AS an ac-
companist he played his selections
skillfully, always subordinating the
instrument to the voice or the violin.
In his piano solos Mr.. Pyck showed
an entirely different character Of
work aud he inislle1 a brilliant per-
.goy,,s.,c zee. Prof. Lardner of the
Uniperslty, who was on the program
for a number, reclted as he never did
before and his rendition Of the court
room scene was that pathetic and WV
idly given that there was hardly a dry
eye in the house. Such work as that
is certainly a winner. He responded
to ashearty encore. The entertain
NEXT throughout was of a high class.

Russian DESIGN. ON Norway,

1t becomes more and more evident
that the award of the Nobel prize for
literature to tue Norwegian poet
Bjornstjerne Biornson was a political
act by which it was intended to bring
about a reconciliation in political mat
tiers between the poet and King Oscar.
The two men have overcome their mu-
tual u~nfriendliness on the subject Of
the separation of the northeastern part
of Norway, which is now generally re-
garded as lost to the crown Of Sweden.
Strange as it may appear. the Russian
secret agitation has made great head

that region.
