CURE FOR HAY FEVER
Sodwich g. Webster Say Hyomei Will
Give Relief-SoId Under Guarantee.

Bowditch & Webster and Percy w.
Means wish to announce that when
Hyomei is used as a preventive, or d
cure. there will be no hay fever. They
advise daily treatment with Hyomei
for two or three weeks before the usual
time for the annual appearance of hay
fever. If this is done. The attack will
lie prevented. However. if the prcvcn-
tive treatment is not started soon
enough, and the disease makes its APP
pearance, use Hyomei six or seven
times daily, and relief will be given at
once.
There is no stomach dosing when
Hvomei is used. Breathed through the
neat pocket inhaler thai comes with
every outfit, its indicated air reaches
the minutest air cells. killing all germs
and soothing and healing the irritated
mucous membrane.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81. extra bottles so cents. 1t is the only
treatment for hay fever sold by Bow
ditch & Webster and Percy w. Means
under a guarantee to refund the money
if it does not give satisfaction.

Oldest known Tree.

The town of Kos, the capital of the
small Turkish island of that name ly-
ing off the coast of Asia Minor, pos
sesses the Oldest tree in the world.
Under its shade Hippocrates instruct
ed his disciples in his methods and
views concerning the healing art 1000
years ago. Tradition carries the age
of the tree back to the time of
Aesculapius (of whom Hippocrates was
a lineal descendant), which would add
some 400 years to its age. A great
part of the trunk is built around, and
there is a fountain known as Hippo
crates fountain. The circumference Of
the trunk is 80 feet, and there are two
main lower branches, which are sup
ported by masonry columns.

Shakspere and Dogs.

We have been convinced by letters
sent to us that there are in Shakspere's
plays plenty Of references to dogs and
their ways, but we believe that the
criticism is we'll founded which notes
that in most cases where dogs are
named, except in general way, they
are not spoken of with any particular
affection. But may that not be because
upon the stage in the Elizabethan days
1t would not have been desirable to di-
rect the attention Of the audience
strongly to anything that would dis
tract them from the motives that in
spired the actors? To treat dogs SYM
pathelically would bring them, in a
sense, into competition with the hui
man actor&-St Nicholas.

RAILWAY RUMoR.

The German government railways EN-.
ployed $50. 451 persons in 1903; the num-
Der of locomotives in use was 20.S45.
The total length Of the Russian rail-
way system on January IA was 37,571N
miles. In 1904 there were thrown open
to traffic 679 miles.
The final spike in the railroad from
Canton to Samshui was Griventhe other
day. But before 1t had been driven
down ~ hours 1t was stolen by the Chi
nese.

tivated flower beds 1T their respective
stations. Some OF the gardens thus
maintained are beautiful.
In 1898 the butter hauled over the Min.
neapolis & st. Louis railroad was 4O0,-
600 pounds. Last year 1t waS nearly H..
100000, the gain coming wholly from de-
velopments OF creaE.eries along the rail-
road.
A report from Teheran, the capital OF

by politicians who brought applicants

political organizations are opposed to

Temperature Of the bath.

Opinions differ as to the relative
merits OF cold or q hot bath. The
Individual constitution must be con-
suited. Medical authority maintains
that children and elderly persons ought
never to battle in water below 20 de-
grees F. Where cleanliness is the
main object the water should be from
u degrees to SO degrees. Where the
bath is to serve as powerful stimu-
liant, as in cases of illness, IL should be
from SO degrees to lis degrees.-
