w. n. SHELDON'S TEST.
Sold Hyomei for Years and Know
II Will Cure Catarrh.

w. ii. Sheldons has given Hyomei a
most thorough and remarkable test For
long time he has offered to refund
the money to any purchaser of Hyomei,
if it failed to benefit.
The remedy has made so mHny
cures among his customers that he
has urged its use in the most chronic
cases of catarrh.
Breathed for a few minutes four
times day, through the inhaler that
comes with every outfit, it soothes
the irritated mucous membrane of
the nose, throat, and lungs, kills
the catarrhal germs, and restores
complete health. Its healing, anti
septic fragrance penetrates. TO the
most remote air passages, as no medi-
cine taken into the stomach can pos
sibly do. Immediate relief almost
always follows the use of Hyomei,
and great benefit is seen after few
days treatment.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
ohiJ 81, anu COnslsls Oh an lnnaler
that can be carried in the pocket or
purse, and will last a lifetime, a med
icine dropper, and bottle of Hyomei.
If this is not sufficient for complete
cure, additional bottles Of Hyomei can
be obtained for 80 cents.
Compare this small expense with
the fees charged by specialists. and
remember, too, if Hyomei does not
cure, w. H. Sheldon will return your
money.

process of disf1guring the countryside APP
pears to 60 OF unchecked, yet 1t may be a
comfort to those who have not lost nope
that there are many thousands who sympa-
thIze with the protest against this desecra-
ton Of natures beauties and that in some
quarters Of the world they have had the
energy and courage to organize and agi-
tate.
1t may not be feasible to check the nui-
sance by attempting a sort of boycott of
the goods thus exploited, for some really
excellent articles bear the faint; but, slow
as the methods may seem. something can
be accomplished by the constant reiteraton
Of protests and the patient education of
public taste in this particular. The atroci-
ties along the New Jersey seashore lines,
and even on the roads to New York, are
rapidly approaching the point where they
must bring about their own abatement.
There will soon be no room left on the
fields for the exercise of the horr1d In
genuity of the sign painter; all the damage
possible will have been done, and then the
jaded and weary traveller will make his dis
gust felt.
If the grievance here. was sufficient to
to appeal to the legislature to tax the hide
Gus signs out of existence. it is easy to IN
derstand the feelings which have given rise
to the establishment in Switzerland Of the
league for the protection OF the natural
beauty of that country. 1t cannot be said
that the "Heimatschutz' has accomplished
a great deal, but 1t has, with the assistance
of it's English branch, kept alive the spirit
of protest against the Disagreement and
vulgarization which Is going on in the
Swiss valleys and on the mountain side.

BACK AMONG THE OLD FOLKS" :"
 A few seasons ago the Himmelein stock company playing engage ments in the middle west had in it's repertoire pastoral drama called Back Among the Old Folks" The principal role was in the hands of William Lawrence who was mem- Der of the Poli stock company a sum- mer ago and the piece did tremen- dous business everywhere. Denman Thompson was presenting "The Old Homestead" in town in Ohio when the Himmelein aggregation happen ed along and started in to pack an opposition theater. On an off day MT Thompson, who had been looking for a man to step into his role on his re- tirement, dropped in to see Back Among the old Folks" and was so much impressed by MT Lawrence's work that he determined to keep his eye on him. Last season he engaged the fat player for the role of Joshua Whitcomb and now Mir Lawrence has life job in the part. Rack Among the old Folks" will be the attraction at Poli's next week every afternoon and evening except Thursday. when Primrose's minstrels occupy the house. Polls popular prices prevail.

Springfield, Ill.-The novelty of . brsnd-nsw sensation was provided for his guests the other evening when Vincent c. Gouyley, of this city, en- tertained 8 party of young society people in the bottom of coal mine, whore . supper of several courses was served.
 Supper ct the bottom of . coal mine in Illinois is not new thing for many, but 1t was about the new. est thing ever for the party of so- ciety buds and their escorts, all of whom were dressed in the garb of the professional coal miner.
 MT. Gourley entertained for his cousin. Miss Alice Heydecker, of Waukegan. and the particular mine selected was solomon's. 20 miles south of Springfield. The party de- parted from Springfield at seven o'clock in the evening, and spent sev- eral hours in the bottom of the black pit. They returned about il o'clock.
 Solomon's mine is one of the best equipped in the state It is lighted by electricity, and, in addition to the miners cars. there is an electric ob- servatory car. The party used this car in travelling about under the Illi- nois corn fields.

 In "A Society Circus" newer and better than ever before, with which the Hippodrome reopens on Saturday night, September 1, Is witnessed ne plus ultra in things theatrical. It is a production which, from a dramatic, operate or arenic standpoint, has never been equalled in the amuse- ment world. In no other playhouse, in this or foreign countries, is such an entertainment possible in variety and originality. Three hours of con tinuous wonder and amazement are afforded and into each hour Is crow,l- ed more amusement than is offered by any other theater in the city. The production is the greatest of spec tacles; It possesses the most tuneful choruses. interpreted by the largest aggregation of playfolk ever as- sembled on any stage in the world; its comedy Is mirth-provoking; its ballet Is a marvel of terpsichorean grace and gorgeous color effects; It's circus is incomparable. comprising as 1t does dozen of the most dar- ing, thrilling and skilful acts, seen for the first time in America. In fine, "A Society Circus" is all that the imagination can picture in theatricals. Matinees are given daily.

FROM THIS THE PRESIDENT gscAPEs.

The annual house cleaning is now in progress at the White House It would require an expert mathematician to figure out just how many coats of paint how many yards of clustering and how much expenditure of money there have been lavished upon this historic old building. Every year the interior is gone over and every year the outside Is either painted or washed, so that the glistening whiteness may be retained.
 The decorations of the executive mansion need careful attention always, and the paint and enamel work has to be kept clean and free from all marks and scratches. The multitude of pill grims who annually visit this building is disposed to be critical, and if any dirt or any defacement of decorations or walls is discovered, there is sure to be something ugly said about 1t. The hard wood floors have to be cared for whenever
