Everyone who has catarrh should

Do not try to cure catarrh Of the

that manner. The only way in which
thistoo common disease can be cured
is through direct application Of Hy-
omei that will kill the germs Of cat

The first days use OF Hyomei will
show decided improvement, and in
short time, especially if used this sea-

A Fine Parade

Seldom has there been more i'm
posing or inspiring sight witnessed
in this city than the parade of the
Volunteer Fire companies of the
state which are taking part in the
annual tournament.
Drawing their tastily decorated
apparatus and stretching in a line
that extended for nearly half mile in
length, the men marched with pre-
cision of step and erectness of car
rage that should have aroused the
envy of any veteran. Each man
apparently took an individual pride
in bringing his company into notice
able prominence with the result that
all made a magnificent showing.
The floats furnished by the leading
business men Of the city were novel
and lent decided attractiveness to
the ensemble.
Louis Larsen of Hillsb0ro, John
Bowers of Mandan, and L. E.Stevens
of Tower City, the judges chosen to
award prizes for the best appearing
companies, had no easy task to select
the, best two from the excellent con-
course, but after careful considera-
tion finally decided that Cooperstown
and Lidgerwood had made the best
general showing, and they were
accordingly awarded first and second
prizes respectively. The result Of
their Judgment caused no especial
dissatisfaction and was generally con.
ceded to.te equitable.
Grand Marshal G. W. Kurtz gave
the signal to advance shortly after
nine O'Clock and. the procession
started south on Sixth avenue from
the Fire house. headed by the VALLEY
City Normal School band. behind
which ina carriage, was President
John Carmody, Secretary H. Z. Reed
and Treasurer VIM. Simpson.

But plants are not content with de-
Tending themselves with spikes and
thorns they have other weapons of
defense. Moreover. says John j. Ward
in Harpcr's Magazine, many plants
have weapons of attack.
Some plants. like the poison oak or
ivy, have poisonous acids, which are
a warning to animals to keep their dis
lance. Others. like some species of
cactus. have diSagreeahle smells. that

Not only do growing things shield
their lives with suits Of mail, but they
form alliances and project each other.
The gorse, or furze. which is well
armed, selects the most exposed situa-
ton it can find, open heatlis and stony
wastes, where it fcaressly holds up
its yellow blossoms for the bees to fer
tilizc. Straightway less protected
plants seek its shelter, and so Il mutu-
ally protective plant army arises.
Self-dcfense is abundantly exhibited
in vegetable life. Sometimes, although
less often, plants actually attack ami
mails. A very pretty, simple example
of attack is found in the English sun
