RlvEsvILLE.


RIvESv1LLE, Sept. 3.-steamer J..
o. Watson on its regular Sunday ex-
cursion trip was loaded with jolly
crowd when 1t landed at the noted
down river town and was greeted by
equally as lively crowd who had not
forgot TO boil their coffee strong for
the occasion. Some of the Falrmont
boys did not forget to remember that
the Lone Star was in Fairmont Sat
urday and that RivesVille was pro.
hibttion town and bless their lives for
it; they threw of bottle at him and
if he had been as good as some peo.
pie down here pretend to be he would
not have picked it up just then but
sneaked around after the crowd left
and gobbleder down. Thanks, boys,
but beware Of hypocrites, wolves in
Sleeps clothing etc, etc. Also beware
OF too much booze as it is almost as
internal as hypocrisy.
Some of the farmers in the section
of the Morgan bend of the river which
is one among The best farming settle
ments in the State are wanting to
know whether there are any or going
to be any provisions made for roads In
that locality or had they better begin
to prepare their mud boats for win
ter. Farmers haul coal over ten miles
from the mines which are situated al
most at the terminus Of the section
of road referred to also a section of
country which should and could inter
sect the same and would accommo-
date quite a LOT of people who pay
their prorata share OF tax and deserves
notice.
The Lone Star don't keep horse
or a mule nor don't teach skule and
some may think he's fule but them
tellers down thar had better be look
ed arter, but 1t might be they have all
they deserve, don't know, do You?
Some are wanting to know whit the
Sycamore nine of Rivesville means.
Well it's just nine young men over six
feet tall or high or both. They drink
Fairmont beer once in while. The
cider nine is just nine good fellows
and any one OF them Will take j"g
and go to Hawkenberry hollow for
cider when the collection Is taken up.
There is no trouble between the two
mines whatever and the Lone Star is
friendly to both sides for certain real
sons but rather favors the old cider
nine, therefore gives the sycamores a
hint as follows Wake UP Sycamore

HAVE YOU CATARRH?
Breath Hyomei and Get Relief and
Cure-SOId Under Guarantee.

If you have catarrh, with offensive
breath, burning pains in the throat,
coughing, raising of mucous, difficult
ty in breathing, sneeZing. husklness,
discharge from the nose, tickling and
dropping at the back Of the throat,
especially at night, coughing spasms,
etc, begin the use of Hyomei at once.
It's healing medication will give re-
lief in a few days and its continued
use will completely drive all catarrh-
al germs from the system.
Hyomei contains natures healing
oils and balsams, the germ-killing
properties of the pine forests, and goes
with the air you breathe to the most
remote cells Of the respiratory organs,
searching out and killing all catarrhal
germs and soothing and healing any
irritation there may be in the mucous
membrane. 1t Is easy and pleasant to
use Hyomei, pleasanter than most of
the stomach dosing, as its healing air
is breathed through a neat pocket in
haler, which can be carried in the
purse or vest pocket, and carries
medication to just the spot where re-
lief Is needed.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, extra bottles, II needed, so
cents, and Tallman & Co. give their
personal guarantee with every pack
age that money will be refunded uii-
less the treatment cures. This shows
their faith in the power Of Hyomei to
cure catarrh.

Labor Scarcity In Montana.

Helena Mont, Nov. 2.-Unless a
few thousand men can be secured to
work in the timber region of Great
Falls this winter, there will be no
work in the mills next summer.
There are 27 mills in the Flathead
district, and not enough men to get
out logs for one month. At least
100, 900, 900 feet of timber will have to
be cut before February l and to Sc
cure laborers the Flathead lumber
men have raised wages to $40 a
month. The situation is described
as desperate and unless laborers car
be secured every industry in the coun'
try will suffer.

Rice Cultivation in Arkansas.

Helena, Ark, Nov. 2.-The expert
ments conducted by the department
of agriculture in ris growing in this
state have turned out highly satisfac-
tory. In land that was found insult
able for all other crops, 10 acres OF
rice were originally sown and the re-
suit was so satisfactory that this year
upwards of 5000 acres were utilized.
The crop this year averaged $40 to
$50 to the acre, and next year 1t is
intended to double the acreage.
