NEITHER STONE NOR METAL
Uralite May Be Cut Like Wood, But
Il Eireproof--Is q New
Invention.

Have you ever heard Of uralite asks
the Dietic and Hygienic Magazine.
Probabl. not, for 1t is new invention.
Yet 1t is we'll worthy Of your notice, since
II is superior to anything of the kind
that has yet been produced. 1t Is the
invention of q Russian artillery officer
and chemist, named Imschenetzky, and
its claim to distinction lies In the fact
that 1t is absolutely fireproof. Uralite
is composed of asbestos fiber, with q
proper proportion of silicate, bicarbon-
ate Of soda and chalk, and 1t Is sup
piled in various finishes and colors, ac-
cording to the purpose tor which 1t Is
intended. In soft form q sheet OF
uralite is like an asbestos board when
hard 1t resembles finely sawn stone and
has metallic ring Besides a noncon-
ductor Of heat and electricity 1t Is prac-
tically waterproof land may be made
entirely SO by paint, and is not effected
either by atmospheric influences or by
the acids contained in smoke in large
towns, which rapidly destroy galvanized
iron. Moreover 1t can be cut by the
usual carpenters or woodworkers' tools /;
!: can be veneered to form paneling for
walls or partitions; 1t can be painted
grained, polished and glued together like
wood; II does not split when nail is
driven through 1t; it is not affected when
exposed to moisture or great changes
OF temperature, and it can be given any
desired color either during the process
OF manufacture or afterward.

4 TRUE AppBrrzsR AND TONIC.
mi-o-na Will Make You Feel Hun
cry and Hearty, and Gives
Strength and Vitality.

Ask any friend who looks thin, pale
and out of health how many meals he
or she eats day, and the chances are
that the answer will be "Not over
two, and I don't feel hungry then"
The plump, rosy and robust eat three
square meals daily, and their perfect
health is due to strong stomach and
digestive system, as such a system
takes out of the food all those ele.
ments that make pure blood and give
nourishment and vitality to the body.
The one appetizer and tonic that
should be taken is Mi.o-na, the only
agent known that will strengthen the
stomach and digestive system and put
them in such perfect working order
that they will digest easily and nat
urally all the food that is eaten, and
send you to the table positively hun.
cry for the next meal.
without strong stomach digestion
will be poor, the blood impure and
serious liver and kidney troubles re
suit, causing headaches, backaches
spots before the eyes, dizziness, sleep
lessness, nervousness, irrita bleness, a
furred tongue and bad breath, all Of
which can be readily overcome by the
Use of Mi-o-na (costing but SOC a box)
as 1t goes right to the foundation Of
perfect health, the stomach.
Scores of leading people in this
State, including editors, ministers
bankers and their families gladly tes
tify to the tonic, strengthening and
health.giving effects of Mi-o.na
Furthermore, The w. r. Smith Co.
one of the most reliable firms in thi
section, sell Mi.o.na under guaran
tee to refund the money If it does no
produce satisfactory results.

WHY DONKEYS DO NOT SHY
Different from Horses Because of
Their Early Environment
Food Also Factor.

The ancestors OF the horse were ac-
customed to roam over the plains, where
every tuit OF grass or bush might con-
ceal an enemy waiting TO spring upon
them. Under these circumstances they
must often have saved their lives by
starting quickly back or jumping to one
sid when they came without warning
upon some strange object. This is a
habit which has not left the animal, even
after long years OF domestication. On
the other hand. the donkey is descended
from animals which lived among the
hills, where there were precipices and
dangerous decliyities, and from these
conditions resulted his slowness ana
sure-footedness. His ancestors were not
so liable to sudden attacks from wild
beasts and snakes. Besides, sudden and
wild starts would have been positively
dangerous to them. Consequently they
learned to avoid the very trick which
has been SO useful to the horse. The
habit OF eating thistles, which is pecu-
liar alone to the donkey, is also descend
ed from these ancestors. In the dry
barren localities which they Inhabited
there was often little food, hence the,
learned TO eat hard, dry and even prickl,
plants when there was nothing else.

Obituary..

Samantha Purlee Louden, was born
May 20, 1889, was married to John j.
Hiatt March 5, 1867, and died at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Frank
Spargur In Rainsboro, March 4, 1905,
aged 65 years, Q months and IA days.
After a brief, though severe, illness
of one week her frail body yielded to
that dread disease, pneumonia. For
many years she has been an invalid
and several times her life was de-
SPARED of but with unusual persist.
ence and energy, she baffled disease,
and friends and neighoors hoped that
she might have strength to be spared
awhile longer but it has been decreed
otherwise and We bow In submission to
the will of the allwise Father, who
makes no mistakes. She was woman
of fine feeling and deep sympathies
and ardently loved her family. No
sacrifice was to great for her to make
for them. She was noted for her in
dustry and frugality. She was kind
neighbor and friend in need. She
will be missed in our neighborhood as
we'll as by her family.
She was a magnet that kept her
family In close unison, and now that
she has been called from 1t, may she
be magnet that will draw her fami-
ly to the better land. She often re-
marked that 1t was such comfort to
visit her children In their own homes,
and that she intended to visit them as
often as she could. It was this desire
that prompted her to make which
was her last visit, before she was real
ly able, having passed through a
severe spell of fever. Little dill her
peighbors think when they bade her
a cheerful goodbye that 1t was the
last good bye. We hope to meet her
where good-byes are never spoken.
She joined the Methodist church
when quite young. She was raised a
Methodist and was firm believer in,
and admirer of the Bible.
She leaves kind husband, six chill
dren and six grandchildren to mourn
her loss, one son and one grandson
having preceded her to that better
land.
A mother dear from US is gone,
A voice we loved is stilied
place is vacant:in our home
Which never can be filed.

NOT A PATIENT MEDICINE.
Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh
Cure, Prescribed by Physicians.

No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as
far superior to them all as the dia.
mond is more valuable than cheap
glass. Their composition is secret,
but Hyomei gives its formula to all
reputable physicians.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for its antiseptic quail
ties. This is combined with aromatic
and healing gums and balsams, max.
ing a pure liquid, which when used In
the Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the
air you breathe with germ.killing,
disease destroying and healing pow
ers that kills all catarrhal germs
there may be in the throat, nose and
lungs
How foolish it is to try and cure
catarrh by swallowing tablets or
liquids. The only natural way to
cure this disease and all other diseases
of the respiratory organs is to breathe
Hyomei.
This treatment has been so success
full, curing 80 per cent. Of allwho have
used it, that Hyomei is now sold by
The w. r. Smith Co. under an abso-
Lutte guarantee to refund the money
If it does not cure. You run no risk
whatever in buying Hyomei. If 1t did
not possess unusual powers to cure, 1t
could uot be sold upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81. 90 and comprises an inhaler, bot
tie of Hyomei and a dropper. The
inhaler will last lifetime; and addi-
tional bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
tained for so cents.
