Hyomei Scientific Treatment for Ca
tarrh by Breathing Medicated Air.

Breathed through the pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, Hyomei
destroys all catarrhal germs in the air

soothes and heals the irritated mucous
membrane, and effectually drives from
the system all traces of catarrhal poi

No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are ad-
vertised as catarrh cures. 1t is as su-
perior to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glass.
The complete Hyomei outfit, consist
ing of neat pocket inhaler, medi-
cine dropper, and bottle of Hyomei
costs but 81, and extra bottles can be
obtained for so cents, making it the
most economical method of curing ca
tarrh, as well as the most reliable.
George E. Greene has sold a great

remarkable results from its use, that
he sells it under an absolute guarantee
that it costs nothing unless it cures

Young Men Fight.

Peak, July 23.-On Saturday morn
ing Loney Ellison shot Earle Davis
in the leg just above the knee. Both
are white. It seems that the two
boys had a little fuss on Friday night
and Saturday morning Elisor went
from here to Aston, just across the
river, where Davis was on duty, work
ing for the Western Union Telephone
company. Elisor stated that Davis
on seeing him began cursing him and
hitting him over the head with pair
of pillars. At that Elisor shot him in
the leg. Davis dropped his pillars as
soon as the ball struck him and the
fuss was ended. Mr.. Davis went to
Columbia to have the ball taken out,
while Mr.. Elisor is here with his
father Columbia Record.

fore it becomes serious. All that is ne

Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
followed by dose of castor oil to cleanse
the system. Rev. M. o. Stockland, Pas

Native Idle, Italians Game.
Then Tar Heel Workingmen Went on
Strike,

Raleigh, n. c., July 26.-Several
thousand factory employees, particu-
larly cotton mill operatives, quit work
at Hope Mills, Cumberland county, N.
c., and factories are all idle. The
cause of the strike was the importa-
ton of a number of foreigners, most
ly Italians, to work. The factories
suffered for the past two years on ac-
count of lack of help, and the owners
thought the only solution was the i'm
portation of foreign white help, the
native help being exhausted.
This hostile movement on the part of
natives is regarded as serious blow
to industries at this time. Attempts
are being made to adjust the matter,
but it's success in very doubtful.

AS Others See Us.

At big barbecue in Lexington
county few days ago, the candidates
for the legislature addressed the dear
people on the issues of the day, and
what do you suppose those issues were?
Good roads, education, taxation, the
dispensary? No you're wrong. They
discussed the Columbia State and
Frazer Lyon. And it remains to be
seen yet what this has to do with the
election of legislators in that county.
Can it be that these aspirants to legis-
lative honors want to go to Columbia
to put the State out of business and
Danish Lyon to Africa or some remote
part of the globe? Or did they just
talk for the sake of-well few votes
they might gain. We have a deep
sympathy for the Lexington voters,
if they must continue to hear such
haranges. es.-Greenville Mountaineer.

''Make Hay While the Sun
Shines"

There is lesson in the work Of the
thrifty farmer. He knows that the
bright sunshine may last but day and
he prepares for the showers which are
so liable to follow. So it should be
with every household. Dysentry, diar.
rhoea and cholera morbus may attack
some member Of the home without
warning. Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, which is the
best known medicine for these diseases,
should always be kept at hand, as i'm
mediate treatment is necessary, and de-
lay may prove fatal. For sale by Kauf-
