her; so she took DIR. Kings New Dis

LETTER TO A. B. TABER.
MIDDLEBURY, VERMONT,

Dear Sir: Here's something every
painter and builder ought to know.
Mr. j Hall, Sheffield Pa, painted two
houses, . years ago. lead-and-oil; took 40
gallons. Last year, he painted Devoe
bought 40 gallons had 10 left.
He is one of thousands. The know
ledge is getting about pretty generally
that Devoe goes further than anything
else.
Have you found it out in your own ex-
perience?
How much further?
Suppose job amounts to 10000 square
feet; how much less Devoe could you
buy?
Is it as easy to paint: Does it cost any
more or less to put-on by the gallon than
anything else: how much?
If it costs no more to put-On Devoe by
the gallon, it costs less by the foot, you
know; for the gallon does more feet.
How much less, do you find it, for
wages?
Lasts, say twice as long; that is the
owners's gam; but perhaps you reckon it
yours; some do. The time, when that
comes-in, is when he gives-out the next
job.
Who gets it:
Yours truly

RIGHT TIME TO CURE
CATARRH.
w. II. sheldon Guarantees Hyomei VIII
Cure II Used Now.

w. ii. sheldon Guarantees Hyomei VIII
Cure If Used Now.
The early summer when the weather
becomes warm and settled, is the best
time of the whole year to treat
catarrhal troubles with the expectation
of complete and lasting relief.
Everyone who has catarrh of the
head and throat should know how
foolish it is to try and cure it by
drugging the stomach.
Until recently your physician would
have said that the only way to cure
catarrh would be by change of eli
mate, but now with Hyomei you can
carry health-giving climate in your
purse OF vest pocket, and by breathing
it few minutes four times day soon
cure yourself.
Everyone who has catarrh, or even
a tendency to catarrh, should use
Hyomei now, for the benefit will be
! gained twice as quickly and the dis
ease thoroughly eradicated from the
system.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and includes neat
pocket inhaler. medicine dropper,
and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks
treatment. The inhaler lasts life
time, and if more Hyomei is needed,
extra bottles can be obtained for so
cents.
In Middlebury there are scores of well
known people who have been cured
of catarrh by Hyomei. If it does not
cure you, w. H. Sheldon will return
your money. This is the strongest evil
dence he can offer as to his faith in the
remedy.

CITY OFFICIAL JOURNAL.
A Splendid Offer.


issue of October 18th, was the first
appearance in print of the very
generous offer of Mr.. E. 4. Nc
Ilhenny, made known to us
through the kindness of Mr.. Louis
Indest, ST.. Since then we are
pleased to see that both our con
frereres, the Enterprise and Lea
der, have given publicity to the
offer with favorable comment, in
their columns. The offer, as the
Iberian first published it, was as
follow:
every recently Mr. Ed. Nell
benny stated to Mr.. Louis Indest,
of this city, that he would do a
good deal for a straight and direct
carriage road from Avery's Island
to this city, and invited his co
operation and influence to that
end. Mr.. McIlhenny offers,
$1,000 cash, and then when the
new road will have been properly
graded and drained he will cover
it through it's entire length with
oyster shells from the McIlhenny
cannery."
Since the above publication Mr.
Indest advises us that it has been
stated to bin, that if this
road is constructed one Of the
principal engineers on the island
has declared that he would at
once put into public service over
it one of the modern automobile
ommibuses, to run upon a regular
schedule, making several trips a
day. Such an arrangement
thoroughly practical-would tend
largely to annihilatlng the dis
lance between the island and this
| city and would bring the two
| points into closer commercial
relations.
We cannot refrain from men
tioning the pleasure side of such
an arrangem ent. With regular
service over such a road and a
good power boat on Bayou Petite
Anse, the resorts, hunting grounds
and fishing banks of the coast are
at once accessible to the pleasure
seeker and sportsman.
Will the Police Jury of Iberia
Parish investigate this PROPOSE
ton? Will they make it an item of
"Dew business at their next
regular meeting? Gentlemen:
Please do so. Very few greater
opportunities knock at our door
[naction would be indifference.
There will be obstacles il, the
way Of getting the proper and
acceptable right of way. There
will be charges Of zone mans

enquired into. And the who ques
ton will have to be carefully

this city fought for years for the
short road to Segnra station. Tt
day it bears 80 per cent of the
travel of that section. Be fail
and just to the rights of the land
owner, but do not forge. that the
public also has rights, and one OF
these is public highways surveyed
and laid out to the greatest pub
lie advantage.
Re zone mans road" Is it one
mans road! Never. One man
offers to contribute 80 per cent of
it's cost for the privilege Of it's ex
| istance and it's common use with
others. Has Iberia ever had
such a liberal offer for public
highway before
