WINTER EATING RUINS SroIACHs.
"Now Is the Time You Need Mi-o-
na," Says The w. r. Smith Co.

Think for a moment of the extra
strain you put upon the stomach In
the winter. The hearty food, the late
suppers and the lack of exercise and
out door life all weaken and strain
the stomach, laying the foundation
for poor health and suffering.
Chronic stomach troubles, nervous
irritability and serious bowel and kid
ney diseases have been often dated
from week of extra good living"
Nearly everyone is bothered with
more or less headaches and backaches,
furred tongue, poor appetite, dry,
hacking cough, heartburn, spots be-
fore the eyes, dizziness or vertigo,
sleeplessness, lack of energy, loss of
flesh or general weak, tired feeling.
Now is the time when Mi-O.na is
needed to repair the ravages and
wastes the hearty eating of winter
has caused In the stomach and diges.
tive system. This Is the only known
agent that strengthens the stomach
and digestive organs, so they can and
will readily digest whatever food is
eaten. A Milo ma tablet taken before
each meal will remove all irritation,
Inflammation and congestion in the
digestive organs, and so strengthen
them that they will extract from the
food all that goes to make good rich
blood, firm muscle, and a sound
healthy body.
This remarkable remedy costs but
80 cents, and If its use does not restore
your full vigor, vitality and health
The W. r. Smith Co., one of the best
known firms in this section, will re.
fund your money. Unbounded faith
like this deserves your confidence.

KILLS GERMS OF CATARRH.
Hyomei Goes to the Root Of the
Disease and Makes Astonishing
Cures.

Catarrh cannot be cured by the use
of pills, liquid medicines and so.called
system tonics. Under such treatment
the germs of the disease will live in
the air passages and increase and
multiply.
Hyomei is the only scientific and
thorough way to cure catarrh. Kill
ing the germs in the air passages, 1t
enters the blood with the oxygen, de-
stroys the microbes in the blood and
effectually 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, 76 Western Avenue,
Cleveland, Ohio, writes: 81 believe
Hyomei saved me life. am better
now than have been in thirty years.
Many doctors. both in England and
France, treated me for catarrh, but I
was not cured until used Hymoei."
Probably the strongest evidence
that can be offered as to the powers
of Hyomei to cure catarrh is the fact
that the W. r. Smith Co. will agree
to refund the money If you say Hyomei
has not cured you.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but $1.00, consisting of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to las,
several weeks. This will effect cure
In ordinary cases, but the chronic
and deap.seated cases of catarrh
longer use may be necessary, and ther
extra bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
| tained for so cents.

All Done By Republican Laws.

The statement In the annual report
of the Ohio Anti.Saloon league for
1904 that 793 saloons have been voted
out of Ohio in the past year, neglects
to state that all of this was done by
means of laws enacted bv Republican
majorities In the legislature.
Under the township local option law
10 townships voted "dry" and only six
"wet," In 1904. This was Republican
law, and has accomplished SO much,
compared with preceding statutes on
the subject, that the league reports
that of ,37i townships, OIL are now
"dry," or three.quarters of the entire
area of the state.
In the Seventy-Hfth general assem-
bly, the Republicans followed up their
township local option law by their like
law for municipal corporations-thc
Beal law. The league report is that
1t has created 176 dry" municipalities
by the vote of their own people. Of
these 81 voted "dry" in 1904, thus
closing 2S5 saloons in one year
BY the Beal law, and the older coun.
Gil ordinance law, also Republican
enactment. Ohio now has 436 dry"
municipalities, over half the entire
number in the state. Of these places
with local prohibition under Republi.
can laws, IL are county seats and four
are cities of over 5000 population.
In the few months since the Repub-
lican legislature and governor made
the Brannock bill law, in spite OF
the league leaders attempt to kill 1t
on the final vote, that measure to pro.
vide local prohibition by district vote
in the residence sections of the larger
municipal corporations has closed
1858" saloons by Al districts voting
dry" according to the leagues owr
report. 1t might have added that
other districts would have done al
we'll If greater diligence or sagacity
had been exerted by the opponents oi
the liquor traffic. They have beer
caught mapping number of times
Every vote enacting the Brannock law
was given by Republicans except just
one Democratic senator.
With such a record of results from
Republican laws, how wantonly wicked
has 1t been to stir up strife within
that party, and to provoke its opposi
tion, for only three minor points tha

laws9 Those causing this controvers.

Rev. Davis Asher MeColm.

Inc aCcidentdl deatn OF Hev. NC
Colin, near Urbana, January 8, was a
terrible shock to his family and his
hosts of friends throughout south.
western Ohio.
Rev. McColm was member of the
Cincinnati Conference of the M. E..
Church, and as such this year was the
pastor of the. churches at Gable, Du.
gan, Kings Creek and Kennard, In
the vicinity of Urbana. The
deceased held quarterly meeting at
Gable and continued the meeting over
for evening services, after which he
started to his home at Kings Creek
In buggy. On his way home he was
compelled to cross the track of the
Erie railroad. This he reached near
10 o'clock, and either not being
familiar with the time of the train or
else the train having been running
out of time, caused him to venture
upon the track at fatal moment.
The train struck the buggy and con-
verted 1t into splinters, his horse was
badly injured and Rev. McColm was
Instantly killed. having been badly
mangled. The train was stopped and
his body was taken to Urbana where
1t was prepared for burial, and later
taken to his home at Kings Creek,
where on Wednesday funeral services
we're held at the M. 4. Church, of
which he was pastor, at 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, after which the body
was taken to Dayton, Ohio, where
funeral services we're held from Dra-
per M. e. Church in that city and his
remains were buried there.
Deceased was born on farm near
Bentonville sixty-fve years ago. He
was son of David and Margaret NC.
Colin, and was one of family of ten
children, two girls and eight boys, six
of the latter becoming Methodist min.
listers. He was married to Narcissa
Jane Foster, a sister of Henry G. Fos.
ter, of this place, in 1851, five children
resulting from this union, three sons
and two daughters. all of whom have
reached the age of maturity.
His affiliations with the church
dated from his childhood, and he be.
gan his career of expounding the
scriptures very early in life and be-
came a member of the Cincinnati
Conference in 1880. During his min
isterial services he has preached prac.
tically all over this county and In
many other counties of southern Ohio
where he was always held In high es.
TEEN by his congregations. He pos
sessed a memory most remarkable
for its retentive quality. He was
truly a man of God, devoted to his
church, to his family, to his friends
and to his Divine Master.
Rev. McColm owned part of the
Foster homestead on Brush Creek
and was visitor to this place and tt
his farm some five weeks ago. Al
this time he was in a most enjoyable
mood and remarked that barring ac
cidents, he believed he would live t
be one hundred years old.

The February "smart Set"

Readers of The Smart Set have
learned to look upon the complete
novel that apaears in each issue of
that magazine as the biggest event of
the month In fiction; but even the
most enthusiastic reader will be hap.
PLY surprised by the story in the
February number. "The Eavesdrop.
pers," by Arthur S,ringer, deals with
the careers of two daring criminals
a man and a woman whose astonish.
ing adventures the reader follows
with breathless interest. From the
very opening sentence the tale be-
comes one of rapid and exciting in.
cident. Different as "The Eavesdrop-
pers" is from such fiction as "In the
Bishops Carriage" and "Rafiles," it
combines all the interest of those
stories with movement and intensi-
ty entirely its own.
OF the sixteen short stories each is
so excellent in it's own way that It is
almost impossible to make selection
of any one as "the best" Caroline
Duer's "The Duty of the Beast" is a
tale almost equal to the finest thing
Edith Wharton has done; Owen
divers "The God of Our Fathers"
contains thrill for the lovers of all
that is startling and dramatic in
fiction; Vincent Harper's "Stuff o.
Dreams is an exquisite idyll of the
South Seas Ethel Sigsbee Small's
"Tasters at Fame" Is one of the best
examples in the field of "child stories
for grown-ups !" Elliott Flowers "a
Pass to Paradise" is delightful in its
mingled humor and romance; while
Margery Williams "The House by the
Way" is pathetic and beautifully
told tale. Besides these stories there
are others of equal merit by Catharine
Mathews, Elizabeth A. Sears, Guy r
Bolton, Helen Vacaresco, Tom Mason
and Algernon Tassin, with one in
French by Cyrille Hardy.
The essay in this issue Is by the
noted dramatic and music critic, Jas
Huneker, and will cause wide com
ment. MIR. Huneker has written oi
"Ibsen the Individualist," and ha:
many interesting things to say of the
personality and work Of the great
Norwegian.
Altogether the February Smart Sci
is splendid example of what q
modern magazine should be.

Obituary.

Lucretia, daughter of Milton and
Sarah Eakin, was born July 6, 1878 ;
died December 10, 1904. She leaves a
mother and one sister md host of
relatives and friends to mourn her
loss.
While quite young she went out
into the world to make her own liv-
ing and built for herself character
that was unapproachable. During a
series of meetings at Marshall she
sought and found the light Of dear
Savior and united with the M. e.
Church at that place under the minis
try of Rev. n. G. Curless. When her
health and circumstances would per-
init she was always found in her place
at church and Sunday school and was
often heard to say that she loved the
Classroom best of all. "Cresh" 1.-THE
name she was known by her friends)
was always looking to enjoyment of
others and during her last sickness in
sisted upon waiting upon herself rath.
er than troubling her friends to wait
upon her.
The funeral services we're held at
the Prospect Church and conducted
by her pastor, Rev. Kestle, of Rains'
boro, assisted by the choir of the M.
E. Church of Marshall, after which
her remains we're laid to rest by the
side of her father, who had gone or
before some years ago. She will long
be remembered by many friends fol
her kindness and cheerful words dur
ing her short life among them, for tc
know her was to love her. Her moth
er and sister have the sympathy OF
