God Bless En-.

We want to put our O. K. on the
following from an unknown writer:
God bless the girl who works! She
is not too proud to earn her own liv-
ing or ashamed to be caught at her
daily task. She smiles at you s.from
Behind the desk or counter or printers
case. There is a memory of her
sewed up in a silent gown. She is
like the brave mountain climber far
up the precipice,:: climbing, struggling,
rejoicing. The sight should be an
inspiration to US all, it is an honor to
know the girl and be worthy of her
esteem. Lift your fat to her young
man, as she passes by. Her hand
may be stained by dishwater, sweep
ing, factory grease or printers ink but
it is an honest hand and a helping
hand. It stays misfortune from
home; it supports an invalid loved
one, may be; is loving potent shield
that protects many a family from the
aImshouse. All honor to the brave
toiler. God bless and protect the
girl who works.

Adyer Using Does it.

When the economical man gets out
his pencil to figure how much he can
save in buying a twenty-five dollar
bill of goods of Chicago or other
mail order houses, he.pays high
tribute to their advertising. One firm
we have in mind gets out catalogue
which. costs them not less than a dol
lar per copy, which they send free. 1t
is expensive advertising, but it brings
results, and in the end the man who
buys pays for the catalogue and a
good round profit besides. The buyer
believes the description of the goods
and ssnds his money. They are not
just what he thought they would be
and the freight amounts to "a good
deal more then he expects, but the
goods are paid for and must be taken
and used. With the local dealer the
goods are seen and freight is saved.
If allowed to figure on the bill before
mailing, often a big saving can be
shown. The local dealer is given the
hot end. of the poker by the catalogue
buyer who comes in with his butter
and eggs and perhaps gets sugar and
coffee at home, knowing there lsNno
profit in such sales; to be in keeping
he should send his butter and eggs to
the mail order house.-Anthony Re-
publican.

CURES CATARRHAL DEAFNESS.
One Weeks Use of Hyomei Did
More Than Six Months Treat ment
by Specialists.

In the treatment of deafness which
is often a result of catarrh, Hyomei
acts almost Immediately upon the in
famed membrane and the hearing
begins to return at once. A few
days treatment will bring relief, and
in three or four weeks, according to
the severity of the case, a cure will
be accomplished.
Miss Meeks of Mattewan, N. Y,
says, "Hyomei is truly wonderful.
have used it but a short time and
see great change in my condition.
My hearing is improving rapidly, and
l had no idea l would improve so
rapidly in SO short a time. My
breath which was so offensive to my
self and others, has lost its bad order
entirely. I have spent great deal
of money with catarrh specialists and
can truly say that six months of their
treatment is not equal to one month
of Hyomei."
Hooper Drug Co. is selling
Hyomei upon, the unusual plan of
agreeing to return the money if the
medicine does not cure.
a complete outfit costs only s1.Oo
andconsisss of an inhaler thatcan be
carried in the vest pocket, medicine
dropper and bottle Of Hyomei.
The inhaler viii last lifetime and
there is enough Hyomei for several
weeks treatment. Additional bottles
of Hyomei can be procured FER so
cents. Compare this small expense
with the fee charged by Specialists
and then remember that if Hyomei
does not cure, Hooper Drug Co. viii
return money.

might have been. FATTY" the en-
