CURES CATARRH

"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure TOT
Catarrh Ever Discovered" Says J
T. Bennett.
Do not try to cure catarrh by TAX
ing drugs into the stomach; it can
not be cured in that manner. The
only way in which this too common
disease can be cured is through q
direct application that will kill the
bacilli of catarrh and prevent theil
growth.
Hyomei is the only known method
of treatment that accomplishes this

covered.

strong testimonials as to the re
markable powers of Hyomel t

called the only method Of curing

J. It. Bennett had SO much con

that it did not help them.

The end of the lane was the end Of

stood in the doorway and watched him
wistfully. OF q sudden he recalled
how Uncle Tommy had looked when
they were boys together.

half aloud. gazing fondly at the little
fellow. Then he bent over him stiffly
and beckoned.
Come see gran'pa," he said, smiling
enticingly.
Dick crossed his hands behind his
back and looked at Uncle Luther So
berly. He was a sunny haired little
fellow, with blue eyes and puckery red
lips, and he stood full in the bright

him seriously.

trafe that sometimes the new designs"
seen on the stage are not the anxious
work OF weeks or months of thought:
some years ago, when Mrs. Langtry
was appearing in a modern society
comedy in Brighton, she arrived at the
stage one evening with a long, spiral
shaped lock OF hair sticking out of the
back of her head like a weird lambs
tail. 1t was too high up in the head
dress to look graceful, but the fact that
Mrs. Iangtry wore the curl in this
way instead of having it nesting
fetchingiy in the turn of the neck, was
quite sufficient for the ladies of the
audience, and the new Langtry head
dress soon made its appearance in the
dining rooms Of the fashionable hotels
OF Brighton. But the weird lambs.

saint you goin' to kiss gran'pa?"
he asked eagerly.
But the little boy wiggled away and
ran out Of the door. Uncle Luther
watched him lettering up the lane in
the sunshine, sucking his candy, until
the vision blurred in his dim old eyes.
Then he returned to his brazier. He
sat down. and drew his chair almost
over 1t. He bent double, with his ell
bows on his knees and his head rest
ing on his hands, and there he sat
alone for a long time. Finally he
Strengthened up. The sudden warmth
of the fire had stolen through all his
body. He leaned back in his chair,
his head dropped over to one side, and
his work-worn Old hands lay palm up
ward on his knees. He was fast asleep.
The braZier under him continued to
glow and send its cherry comfort
stealing up around his chair. 1t had
a friendliness and hearty warmth that
were more than the kindness Of many
of the old mans friends.
The dusk of evening came down and
filed the corners with shadows. And
presently glow that was not all in the
brazier began to illuminate the center
of the reom. A thin, wayering mist of
smoke curled up around the old man
and crept silently along the dingy cell

sharp burst of flame that disappeared
as suddenly as it came. The old mans
trouser leg rested against the hot
brazier, and the fine fire gnawed and
