NOT A PATENT MEDICINE.
Hyomei a Scientific Treatment for
catarrh by Breathing Medieated


Breathing thru the pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, Hyomei
destroys all catarrhal germs In the
passages of the throat and nose,
soothes and heals the irritated mucous
membrane and effectually drives from
the system all traces of catarrhal
poison.
No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised as catarrh cures. 1t is as
superior to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glass.
The complete Hyomei outfit, con-
sistirg of neat pocket inhaler. a
medicine dropper, and a bottle of Hy-
omei costs but 81, and extra bottles
can be obtained for SO cents, making
it the most economical method of cur
ing ,,atarrh, as well as the most re-
liable.
Mcbride & Will have sold great
many Hyomei outfits and have seen
such remarkable results from its use,
that they sell 1t under an absolute
guarantee that it costs nothing unless
it cures.
II not convenient to obtain Hyomei
of Mcbride & Will or some other drug
gist it will be forwarded from the
laboratory by mail or receipt of price.

A GOOD JOKE ON "cAL."
Sneriffs Put Him Under Mock Arrest
at Waterloo.

The Times Tribune at Waterloo tells
a good story of practical joke played
on Sheriff Hutson which cost him the
cigars. The Times Tribune says:
Sheriff Hutson, while transferring
here from the Greatwestern to the Illi-
nois Central, on his way to 1nde-
pendence, one day last spring recog-
nized a colored woman whose descrip-
ton had been sent to him from Des
Moines as woman who was wanted
as a witness at the state capital. Hut
son, intent on performing his duty,
asked the aid of an officer in arresting
the woman. Policeman Huntley, a
man well acquainted with Hutson, by
way Of a joke, took Hutson out of the
way and landed him in a north end
drug store. While there the officer
telephoned to the police department
the joke perpetrated on the Marshall
county official, and asked that the
wagon be sent for him, thus to carry
the joke out to the end of the string.
1T so happened that Sheriff Schnurr
of Chickasaw county was also in Wa
terloo, he transferring on his return
from independence. Schnurr, always

to the spirit of the affair and accom-
panied an officer to the north end drug
store. Both rushed into the place and
made mock arrest, at the same time
hustling the innocent Sheriff Hutson
into the wagon. The whole party was
taken to the station where the joke
was ended in the smoke of cigars and
stories Of old times.
"The stories that Hutson was arrest
ed in earnest while here are wholly
untrue and obviously initiated to DIM
age the prospects of Hutson in the
race for sheriff this spring.
"This is statement of the facts as
given out by Chief Sweitzer and sec
onded by all the members of the force
who were in on the joke"

ECLIPSE WAS PERFECT.
Gorgeous Night Made the Phenom
enon a Sight Beautiful to Behold.

enon sight Beautiful to Behold.
The beautiful night, with the moon
lacking but one night of being full,
made the total eclipse of this morning
a sight beautiful to behold. The at
mosphere was perfect to witness the
phenomenon. The interest attached to
the eclipse, upon it's announcement by
the T.-R. Thursday evening, was cyl
denced by the fact that great many
people either sat up to view II, or made
arrangements with the night operators
of the telephone companies to awaken
them.
The eclipse arrived on schedule time,
the moon entering the shadow of the
earth exactly at 1857 o'clock and didnot
completely emerge until 1881, three
hours and forty minutes later. At II: So
the eclipse became total, and the moon
remained in complete obscurity one
hour and thirty eight minutes The
eclipse is pronounced by many who
saw it as the most beautiful ever wit
messed.
In speaking of the eclipse, and the
fact that the public as a general thing
is too inclined to slight the Importance
of the science of astronomy, Dr..
Woodward, president of the Carnegie
Institute, declares that the study Of
the heavens is the most important,
practical and useful of all the sciences.
The most important service of as
tronomy to mankind" said the learn
ed professor. has been to convince
people of the continuity of the phe-
nomena of nature. If we did not be-
lieve in the permanence of the phe-
nomena of nature, we would be just

the barbarians of central Africa IN
dealing with epidemics. storms ana
other great physical calamities. Let
me cite Il noteworthy case. few
years ago there was IL great droulh
in Missouri. The people had their
own way of dealing with it. Instead
of digging wells or driving their cat
tie to places where water was plenty,
they appointed day of prayer This
is done all over the world. however
The Missourians have no monopoly
OF that method OF averting calamities
The Moqui Indians have done the
same for ages. But it isn't the scien-
tiiic way Science keeps records, an

them, and the public is becoming
more and more dependent upon IL lor
guidance and relief. When serious
epidemics, like cholera or yellow few
er, break out, we do not depend OH
supernatural influences any longer
We look for approximate causes ana
remove them. Astronomy has taught
us how to do that. The striking phe-
nclnena of the heavens have been Wis
ible to everybody since the shepherds
noted them on the plains OF Shinar'
and they proceed in an orderly fash
ion. Having been once taught the
fact of the continuity of nature, we
are beginning to apply the same laws
to everyday phenomena. more lhli-
mately related to us. We are begin
ming to apply them TO ourselves
astronomy has taught us that we

the rest of the UNIVERSE that the
humblest creature is involved In an

plays an important role In the pro-
gram of the universe. Anthropology
the investigation of mankind, is Il

cause the very instruments OF inves-
tigation are also the very objects OF

kind is man. We learned only recent
ly how to do it and we obtained our
