MAYO s WEAVER'S TEST
Sold HyOmei for Years and Know 1t
Will Cure Catarrh.

Mayo & Weaver have given
Hyomei a most thorough and re
markable test. For a long time
Mayo & Weaver have offered to
refund the money to any pur-
chaser of Hyomei, if it failed to
benefit.
The remedy has made so many
cures among their customers
that Mayo & Weaver have urged
it's use in the most chronic cases
of c4tarrh
Breathed for a few minutes
four times day, through the in
haler that comes with every out
fit, it soothes the irritated mucous
mem brane of the nose. throat and
lungs, kills the catarrhal germs,
and restores complete health.
The complete Hyomei outfit
costs only 81, and consists of an
inhaler that can be carried in the
pocket or purse. and will last a
lifetime, a medicine dropper, and
a bottle of Hyomel. Ifthis is not
sufficient for complete cure,
additional bottles of Hyomei can
be obtained for so cents.
Comp pare this small expense
with the fees charged by special
lists, and remem Der, too, if
Hyomei does not cure. Mayo &
Weaver will return your money

LANGUAGE EVOLUTION.
Use of the Sufifx LESS" In Verbs,

Use OF the Sufiix LESS" In Verbs,
Nouns and Adjectives.
Many will remember that some years
ago there went Oh n violent contro-
versy about the word tireless. The
discovery had been made that less"
was Il sufiix which could properly be
appended only TO nouns; hence the
form must be discarded, and we must
all take pains to say untiring. The
duty of SO doing was preached from
scores of professional and newspaper
pulpits. No one seemed to think or
care for the various other adjectives
similarly formed and therefore liable
10 the similar censure which they
never received. Hostility was direct
ed against il alone The actual flaw
which vitiated the arguments against
tireless its cenSors never knew or took
into consideration. This was that the
fancied rule covering the creation of
such words had practically long ceased
to be operative whenever Il new forna-
ton struck the sense of the users of
language as being desirable.
UnquestiOnably in our earliest speech
the suffix less when employed to
form adjectives was Joined only with
nouns. But the general sloughing off
of nominal and verbal endings which
went on in later centuries reduced n
great proportion of substantives and
verbs in the speech to precisely the
same form. In consequence the sense
of any fundamental distinction be-
tween the two broke down in many
ways-in one way in particular. There
is nothing easier in our speech than to
convert verb into a noun or Il noun
into verb. 1t is Il process which has
taken place constantly in the past and
is liable to take place at any time in
the future, either at the will or the
within. of the writer or speaker

able story about the intelligence of a
mare who saved her colt from death

Texas. The colt had fallen with its
legs through railroad bridge, and the

the coming train. AS the train came
UP she stood on the track whinnying.
The train stopped, and then the mare
trotted ahead of it as it moved slowly

CHIRSCHMUS.
A Swiss Dainty That Is Made OF Pre-
served Cherries.


Last summer I ate genuine Swiss
chirschmus twenty years old 1t tasted
like q concentration of all the richness
and sweetness of the most perfect
cherries. In appearance it was pur-
plIsh black mass. Age had not impair
ed 1t in the least.
Upon inquiry / learned how this
cherry connection, with its wonderful
preserving quality, is made. The cher
ries used must be perfect-very large,
ripe. Juicy black ones and, above all,
very sweet.
The juice of them pressed out and
strained through a bag is put in a
large preserving KETTLE at the bottom
of which Is placed piece of smoked
pork fastened to block of wood. The
wood serves as a weight to keep the
fat down and prevent the juice from
burning as it thickens.
The cherry juice is boiled for about
twenty-four hours without sugar, but
stirred from time to time until it
becomes II mass of sweetness SO firm
and thick that it would not fall if the
kettle were inverted.
That is all. a simple process, but the
result is delicious. This chirschmus is
in general use in Switzerland with the
suisse ankle" (sweet butter) and bread.
