HOW Tn PRONOUNCE HYOMEI.
Druggist GOkaY Tells Of This Re-
markabIG Treatment That Cures
CataHh Without Stomach
Dosing.

"While all our customers who have
used Hyomei agree that it is remark
ably successful in curing catarrh and
other diseases of the air passages, "
says Druggist Goksy, yet there has
been considerable diversity of opinion
as to bow the name is pronounced "
"Hyomei is pronounced just as if it
were spelled 'high-o-me, with the ac-
cent on the first syllable.
ga great many come to his store and
instead of asking for Hyomei, tell him
they want package of the treatment
for catarrh that he is selling on a guar
antee.
"While be knows what they mean,
and all of his clerks will give them
Hyomei, yet he wants them to know
bow to pronounce the name Of Hyomei
so that they may run no chance of get
ting anything but Hyomei no matter
where they go.

this disease, soothes and heals the ir-
ritated mucous membrane and effeotu-
ally drives all catarrhal poisons from
the system.
''All the stomach dosing in the
world can do no lasting good in the
treatment Of catarrh unless the nose
and throat are free from catarrhal mi
crobes. There is no stomach dosing
with Hyomsi; just breathe it.
''We have so much confidence 10 the
value of the treatment that we are
selling it with the understanding that
we will return the money if it fails to
cure.
All Banner readers know that we do
exactly as we agree.

THE SILENCE OF BUTTERFLIES.
This Insect Represents q Truly Silent
World.

This Insect Represents q Truly Silent
World.
After all, the chief charm of this race
Of winged flowers does not lie in their
varied and brilliant beauty, not yet in
their wonderful series of transforma-
tions, in their long and sOrdid caterpil-
lar life. their long slumber in the
chrysalis, or the very brief period
which comprises their beauty, their
love making, their parentage and their
death. Nor does it lie in the fact that
we do not yet certainly know whether
they have in the caterpillar shape the
faculty of sight or not, and do not even
know the precise use Of their most
conspicuous organ in maturity, the an
tennae. Nor does it. consist in this
that they of all created things have
furnished man with the symbol of his
own Immortality. 1t rather lies in the
fact that, with all their varied life and
activity. they represent an absolutely
silent world. All the vast ar
ray of modern knowledge has found
no butterfly which murmurs with an
audible voice and only few species
which can even audibly click or rus
tie with their wings.-T. W. Higgin-
sou, in Atlantic.

GOLDEN CHA MS.
NJ. Max Regis Wore Golden Handouts
For Years.


For Years.
II Will be remembered, says the
Westminster Gazette. that some years
ago NJ. Max Regis was presented by
group of lady admirers with pair of
EOlden handouts, in cOmmemoratlOn
of his arrest and Imprisonment in the
great cause of Nationalism. The An
ti-Semite swore that he would wear
the manacles as souvenir bracelets for
the remainder of his life. For some
time lie kept his promise, and then it
was observed that he had abandoned
his decorative fetters. Why? Was 1t
inidelity to the cause, or what? Peo-
pie wondered. and could get no salts
factory answer. until few days ago
there was public sale of unredeemed
pledges from the Mont de Piete. The
golden handouts (weighing forty-hVe
grammes) were included in the cata-
logue. NJ Regis having deposited them
with ma tante' to relieve a tempo
rary Indulgence. and having neglected
to recover them. To complete the
irony of the situation, they were pur-
chased by a Hebrew. who now wears
them in the streets of Algiers anu eA-
Libits them to all his friends.

One Of the greatest, and certainly one of
the most agreeable, of my many surprises
vas the supreme beauty of the main group
OF buildings. For the simple reason that
the camera does not exist which could
take IN the vast picture as the eye sees it,
the early views of the group-a bit here

views of the ten individual buildings which
make up It's component parts do justice to
their nobility of architecture and general
grandeur. Then again in the ground plans

was ordered that the chief of police
call on each of the registrars of the

booked for Monday should be called
off, on the grounds that it was ille-
gal. This was a great surprise to
many. The question of the legality Of
the dispensary election has been the
gossip ever since its inception, but it
was not thought the election would be
stopped at this time. There is No

have polled a large majority of votes
