Why Suffer From Rheumatism?

Why suffer from rheumatism when
one application of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm will relieve the pain? The quick
relief which this liniment affords makes
rest and sleep possible, and that alone
is worth many times its cost. Many
who have used it hoping only for a short
relief from suffering have been happily
surprised to find that after awhile the
relief became permanent. Mrs. V. III.
Leggett of Yum Yum, Tennessee, U.

is the only thing that will relieve the

CATARRHAL TROUBLES PREVALENT.
Spring Months Cause Sickness..-Breathe
HyOmei and Be Cured OF Catarrh,

Catarrhal troubles are more common
at this season than at any other
time Of the year. The sudden changes
that come during the spring months are
productive of many cases of catarrh
that without proper treatment will be-
come chronic.
The pleasantest, most convenient,
and only scientific method for the treat
ment and cure of catarrh is Hyomei.
Simply put twenty drops in the little
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, and then breathe it for three
minutes four times a day.
No dangerous drugs or alcoholic con-
coctions are taken into the system
when Hyomei is used. Breathed through
the inhaler, the balsamic fragrance of
Hyomei penetrates to the most remote
cells of the nose and throat, and thus
kills the catarrhal germs, heals the ir-
ritated mucous membrane, and gives
complete and permanent cure.
Thousands of testimonials have been
given as to the astonishing cures made
by this remedy. j. S. Nugent, treasu-
rer of the New York Life Insurance
Company writes: "Hyomei has com
pletely cured my daughter of catarrh,
from which she has been a sufferer for
years.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
one dollar, and as the inhaler will last
a lifetime and there is sufficient Hyo-
mel for several weeks treatment it is
the most economical catarrhal remedy
known. Extra bottles can de procured
for fifty cents. Ask The Laurens Drug
Co. to show you the strong guarantee
under which they sell Hyomei.

INSURANCE COMPANY MUST PAY.
A Case OF Unusual Interest Tried in
Greenville. The Man Who Struck Died.

After remaining out for an hour the
jury rendered a verdict for the full
amount demanded by the plaintiff in
the case of Carroll, executor of the es-
tate of f. G. Stacey against the FL
deity and Casualty Company of Bal
timore, which was tried in the United
States Circuit Court. The verdict was
for s. 1921, the full amount of the policy
carried by the late Mr.. Stacy with the in
terest that had accrued since it became
due.
Because of the rather unusual nature
of the defense the case has attracted a
great deal of attention among insurance
companies and with the public generally.
Mr.. Stacy was president of the National
Bank of Gaffney. More than a year ago,
he hada personal encounter with anothcr
business mar on the streets of Gaffney.
In striking his opponent, Mr.. Stacey
bruised one of his hands. The wound
amounted to little at first, but later
blood poison set in and he died just
after his arm had been amputated.
All cllOIG was Illdue W CollcCI lnS III
surance on ar accidental policy and let
ters were exhibited in which the agent
recommended that it be paid. The COM
pany refused even after proof of
deathhad been forwarded, claiming that
death was not the result of an accident
as contemplated under the term of the
contract.
The suit tried was then brought
The company claimed at the trial
that the bacterial affection of the
wound which caused death could have
been brought about by lotions and APP
plications of various sorts made to the
wound just as easily as from contami-
nation through the mouth as alleged in
the complaint, and further, hat even if
Mr.. Stacey died from the causes ~alledged
he was acting unlawfully in engaging in
a tisticuff and was therefore not entitled
to the fund stipulated in the contract.
