HARMFUL STOMACH DOSING.
No Need Of It When Hyomei is Used
To Cure Catarrh.

Physicians and scientists agree that
the less medicine one swallows, the
better. 1t is in keeping with this idea
that Hyomci is recommended by lead
ing physicians throughout this ana
other catarrhal sections.
When this treatment Is used in ca
tarrhal troubles, there is no stomach
dosing. for the medicine is taken in
with the air you breathe, and goes
right to the spot where the catarrhal
germs are present, healing the in
famed and irritated mucous mem
brane. killing the disease germs and
entering the blood with the oxygen.
driving all catarrhal germs from the
system.
Do not try to cure catarrh of the
head by putting medicine into your
stomach.-thiS is neither a scientific
nor common sense treatment Breathe
the healing balsams of Hyomei and in
a few days you will notice relief, and
its continued use Will result il & COM
plete and lasting cure.
Bowditch. Webster & Co, have seen
so many cures made by Hyomel
amongst their customers. several OF
them cases where all hope Of relief
had been given up, that they give al
| absolute guarantee OF cure. or money
will be refunded, with every outfit
they sell.
The complete Hyomei outfit cost:
bu, 81. while extra bottles of Hyomei
if needed, are only so cents.

His Scheme Worked.

1t is related that a certain man was
recently very sad because his wife
had gone out of town on visit,
which she would not shorten in spite
of his appeals to her to come home.
He finally hit upon plan to induce
her to return. He sent her copy Of
each of the local papers with one item
clipped out, and when she wrote to
find out what it was he had clipped
out he refused to tell her
The scheme worked admirably! In
less than a week she was home to
find out what it was that had been
going on that her husband didn't want
her to know about.-Pittsburg Press.

voice of his captain: "'Haw, eh, well,

the sergeant; 81 tell you. Flagler. the

Flagler, the corporal, answered with
a sincerity of appreciation which with
him had become science. Il think
you are right, sergeant" he answered.
Behind them the privates mumbled
discreetly. This sergeant of ours. he
thinks we are made of wood. | don't

enemy when all the world knows that
we haven't had decent meal in 20
days"
The Redeemed face of Sergeant Nor
ton suddenly showed to the rear. "A
little more marching and much less
talking" he said.
When he came to the house he had
been ordered to occupy, the sergeant
shifted with disdain. These people
must have lived like cattle!" he said,
angrily.
To be sure, the place was not allur-
ing. The ground-fioor had been used
for the housing Of cattle, and 1t was
dark and terrible. A flight of steps led
to the lofty first floor, which was de-
nuded, but respectable. The sergeant's
visage lightened when he saw the
strong walls of stone and cement. I'm

never ger us out of here" he said
cheerfully to the squad. The men,
anxious to keep him in an amiable
mood, all hurriedly grinned and
seemed very appreciative and pleased.

announced. He sent Jones and Patter-

Three Great Conversationalists

The three greatest conversational
lists with whom it has been my good
fortune to come into touch were MAJ
zini, DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Bismark.
OF these, Dr. Holmes was the most
spirited in the bel esprit sense,
Bismarck the most imposing and at
the same time the most entertaining
in point Of wit, sarcasm, anecdote and
narrative of historical interest,
brought out with rushing vivacity and
with lightning-like illumination of
conditions, facts and men.
In Mazzini words there breathed
such warmth and depth Of convic-
ton, such enthusiasm of faith in the
sacredness of the principles pro-
fessed and of the aims pursued by
him, that it was difficult to resist such
a power of fascination.-Car Schurz.

The Death Chamber.
BY Stephen Crane.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
BY Stephen Crane.

A sergeant, a corporal and IA men OF
The Twelfth regiment of the line had
been sent out to occupy house on the
main highway. They would be at
least a half of a mile in advance OF any
other picket of their own people
Sergean. Morton was deeply angry
at being sent on this duty. He said
that he was overworked There were
at least two sergeants, he claimed fu-
riously, whose turn 1t should have
been to go on this arduous mission.
He was treated unfairly; he was abused
by his suneriors; why did any fool ever
join the army; as for him he would
get out os it as soon as possible, he
was sick of it; the life OF dog. All
this he said to the corporal, who hs-
tened attentively giving grunts OF re-
Spectful assent.
On the way to this post, two privates
took occasion to drop casually TO the
rear and pilfer in the orchard of de-
serted plantation When the sergeant
discovered this absence, he grew black
with rage which was an accumula-
ton of all his irritations.
Run, you'll" he howled. Bring them
herel I'll show them" A private
ran swiftly to the rear. The remainder
Of the squad began to shout nervously
at the two delinquents,. whose figures
they could see in the deep shade OF the
orchard, hurriedly picking fruit from
the ground and examining 1t within
their shirts, next to their skins The
beseeching cries of their comrades
stirred the criminals more than did the
barking CT the sergeant They ran to
rejoin the squad, while holding their
loaded bosoms and with their mouths
open with aggrieved explanations.
A moment later the squad moved on
toward Its station. Behind the ser
geant's back Jones and Patterson were
slyly passing apples and pears to their
| friends, while the sergeant expounded
eloquenrly to the corporal. You see
