the canal fell into it, thus defeating

KILLS GERMS OF CATARRH
Hyomei Goes to the Root of the Dis
casa and Makes Astonishing Cures.

Catarrh cannot be cured by the use
of pills, liquid medicines and socalled
system tonics. Under such treat
m.nt the germs Of the disease will
still live in the air passages and in
crease and multiply.
Hyomei is the only scientific and
thorough way to cure catarrh. Kill
ing the germs in the air passages, it
enters tn. blood with the oxygen, de-
stroys the microbes in the blood and
efectuallY drives from the system all
traces of catarrhal poison.
Thousands of testimonials have
been given as to the astonishing cures
made by this remedy.
Mrs. lie Rendu, rs Western Ave
nue., Cleveland, Ohio, writes: II be-
lieve Hyonei saved my life. l am
better now than l have been in thirty
years. Many doctors, both in En-
gland and France, treated me for
catarrh, but I was not cured until !
used Hyomei."
Probably the strongest evidence
that can be offered as to the powers
of Hyomei to cure catarrh is the fact
that Reinhart's Pharmacy will agree
to refund the money if you say Hy-
omei has not cured you.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but Sl.00, consisting Of an inhaler
dIopper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect q
cure in ordinary cases, but for chronic
and deep-seated cases Of catsIrh
longer use may be necessary. and
then extra bottles Of HyOmei can be
obtained for SOC.

It's a little early in the season for
snake stories, but the REGISTER likes
to keep up with the procession, and
we therefore publish the follwlng truth
full occurrence: In a terrific battle
with huge horned snake at Cold
Spring, near Winchester, Va, Mrs,
Ida Strosnidsr finally came of the
victor, killing the reptile, which meas
ursd six feet in length and had a two
inch horn. The snake was brought
from its winter quarters by the recent
warm weather, and attacked Mrs.
Strosnider as she drove along the road.
The plucky woman seized stick and
beat the reptile to death.
A funny incident occurred at the
! railroad station in Sh -pherdstown
tn. other day. As the morning pas.
senger train stopped for few mo-
ments, a half dozen Cinnamon were
seen sitting in one of the cars. Just
at this time Joe Cookus, Jr., came
along with wire trap in which were
four big rats. When he saw the Chi
namen he held the rats up to their
view, and in pantomime asked the
yellow men if they would like to have
breakfast. The Cinnamon caught
on instantly and laughed heartily,
but they made vigorous signs to show
that they didn't want any rats. Per-
haps they weren't hungry.

Several high school girls of Yanl

Several high school girls of Yank
ton were discovered one day last
week conversing through the bars
with the negro convict, Carr, who
was confined in the county jail
Carr and his fellow prisoners in
some way got possession of some
tools with which they attempted to
break jail, and there was some sus-
picion that the tools had been Civ
en- to them by these girls, although
the county sheriff does not credit
this charge. AS the girls are from
prominent families the names are
withheld from the public. 1t may
have been simply indiscretion on
the part of these young women,
but such indiscretions lead to
crime, and the suspicion that now

women everywhere to avoid "even

The Fifty ninth Congress assem-

work before it the prospects are
that it will be a long and import
ant session. Railroad legislation,
tariff revision and reciprocity treat

statehood measures, are among the
important matters to be consider
ed. 1t is not expected that any
extensive revision of the tariff will
be attempted at this session, as
other matters of more pressing i'm

few minor changes will probably
be made in the present schedule.

In his speech in Akron, Ohio,
Secretary Taft told the people that
>'William J. Bryan would become
the successful leader of the demo-
cratic party and a menace to the
prosperity of the country unless
something should be accomplished
by President Roosevelt" This is
not only a significant statement,
but it is q compliment to the Me-
braska democrat, and, reading be-
tween the lines of the utterance,
the fact stands out that the "some-
thing" President Roosevelt must
do to prevent democratic success
in the nation is to carry out the re-
forms for which Bryan stands and
which have given birth to the term.

Such reading between the lines
is certainly novelty. If the
something" that was meant by
Sec. Taft was ''to carry out the re-
forms for which Bryan stands"
how could he claim that Mr.. Bry-
an was likely to become ga menace
to the prosperity of the country o.
What reforms has Mr.. Bryan ad-
vocated that are now endorsed by
Mr.. Roosevelt? Bryan favored free
coinage of silver and fat money,
Does Pres. Roosevelt? Mr.. Bryan
advocates free trade. Does Pres
Roosevelt? Mr.. Bryan advocates
state control of railroads. Does

Pres. Roosevelt? What Mr.. Taft
plainly means is that the people
demand some reforms; they pre-
fer those advocated by Pres. Roose-
velt, but if congress refuses to
grant them they may at the next
election, as rebuke to the repub-
licans, endorse Organism, which
would be menace to the prosper
