called "individualistic" anarchy are
imbibed. But the fact remains that
Italy, Notwithstanding the kind heart
edness and gentleness of her inhabi-
tants, furnishes the arms which exc
cute the diabolical criminal plans con-
ceived by others. Two reasons are
advanced for this. One is that human
life is held more cheaply in Italy than
in almost any other civilized country.
The second reason which is believed
to make the Italian a most ready re-
cruit to anarchy is his hereditary lean.

Now that physicians and scientists
universally agree that catarrh is a

Prior to the discovery Of Hyomei. a

tistics showed that at least ninety.
seven out of every hundred persons
in this state were suffering from ca.

The treatment with Hyomei is very
simple and pleasant; a small inhaler
comes with every outfit and three OF
four times a day Hyomei is breathed
through this. making the air at that
time like that found on the mountains
where the pine forests give off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
The complete outfit costs but one
dollar, while extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for so cents. Bratton Drug Co.
have seen so many remarkable re-
suits from the use of Hyomei that
they guarantee to sell it under an
absolute guarantee that II costs moth

Rome, June S.-The infamous and
shameful attempt on the lives of King
Alfonso and Queen Victoria last week
vas perhaps heard by no other Euro

perpetrator of the outrage was an
Italian. The latter fact occasioned lit

land most productive of anarchists.

twenty-five years the unenviable dis

past decade or so that the serious
