Simple Way TO Cure Catauh By Hy.

1t is the height of folly to dose the

except the catarrhal ge ms that are
present in the nose, throat and lungs

The soothing air OF Hyomei heals

OF hard rubber inhaler which can be

King Edward and Alexandra Ascend
10 Crater Of VeAuVius.

NAPLES, May L. King Edward,
queen Alexandra and the Duke aud
Duchess OF Aosta, making the ascent
of Vesuvius, on arriving at the obser-
yatory were met by Professors Mat
tucc and Perret.
The king congratulated both the sci
entlsts on their work and drew from
them q minute account OF their expert
ences in the days they passed as pris-
Oners in the observatory during the re
cent eruption Of Nesuyius, Il period in
which the seismologiSts were exposed
to momentary danger Of horrible
death.
The party also examined with keen
interest the instruments In the obser-
yatory and the records which they
traced while the disturbance was in
progress
Afterward the royal party assembled
above the observatory through two
feet Of volcanic ash which had scarce
~ dried since the torrential rains of
last week The fatigue Of the walk
was repaid by view Of the smoking
volcano. beneath which spread the dey-
astated plains and valleys
A Messina (Sicily) report says that
the volcano of Sromboli after a period
of quiet is resuming activity and is
emitting smoke and solid material.

age-stamp tongue. in word, is any
disorder contracted from the licking
of postage stamps.
Three or four persons a week visit
me with postage-stamp tongues. They
have throat trouble, or skin dis

brought on by the reckless habit of
stamp licking.
"A stamp should never be licked as
IT'S gummed surface is always squirm-
ing and pIlsating with germs If any
licking is to be done, let it be applied
to the righg-hand corner of the en-
yelope. where the stamp goes, for there
the germs are apt to be sparser.
TO be safe. though, the tongue
should never be applied to either en-
yclope on stamp A damp sponge
should be used In the tongues stead.

One of the delightful customs for
centuries 10 Europe has been to plant
May Poles on May first. This is rap
idly being observed in our own land
as we'll But prettier custom still Is
the filling of baskets with wild flowers
and hanging them on the door of some
friend or better still leaving with
some sick or poor friend.
We have just put in nice line of
Paper Crepe, Floral and Colored pa.
pers with which one can make at a
small expense, pretty paper baskets
for this occasion. For those who do
not care to make thei" own baskets we
have them already made for from loc
/ to 25c each.
But the men folk don't want to both
er with basket of flowers, They are
all figuring on a basket of fish tina
day. Well, good luck to you. W.
have Fish baskets, too, and the Rods
Hooks, Lines, and every other neces
sity for the first class fisherman.

The Chicago Woman S club has
undertaken the task of cultivating
taste for white butter ana pro-
poses to open a campaign for that
purpose in the fall. The club was
aroused to active warfare against
colored butter by a newspaper ar
ticle telling of the death of far
mer's boy as the result of eating
some of the dye with which the
butter was being colored at the
farm. The truth is that the color
ing of butter is a senseless custom,
nothing but a fad or fashion, that
has no basis in common sense. It
is just as good when left uncolored,
if it is right in other respects, and
gains nothing by the coloring
except an imaginary improvement
IN looks. Ii 1t gets Its color natur-
ally from the food of the COW, all
right, but if, when churned, it is
white, let it alone and use it that
way. Of course, it will take some
time to do away with the silly
notion that butter is not good
unless of a golden color, but in
time even the stupidest may be
taught better. Butter should not
sail under false colors any more
than people. Artificial coIoring is
a fraud to start with, and by cover
ing a poorer article with good
looks as its only recommendation
encourages that sham and false
pretense which is all too common
in commercial transactions. Let
us have whittier butter and whittier
consciences.

Gentle Admonition.

has ruled that railroads must sub
nit excursion rates to the commits
sion for approval before same can
become effective. AS rates have
been made for the great fairs. over
the state and arrangements made
by various large cities for enter
tanning the immense crowds ex-
pected, this order is likely to create
a big stir. Anything touching pas
senger rates affects the travelling

interested as the railroads. Go a
