Etiquette of Other Days.

An old manual of etiquette shows
that the people of bygone days were
not so different from those of the
present, for the treatise thinks it
necessary to state that one should
never ask friend where she bought
her gown and the uttermost farthing
Of its cost. To this rule, however, an
astonishing exception is made One
might ask these things, it seems, if
one really wanted to get gown ex-
actly like the one in question and
were therefore asking sincerely for in-
formation. Evidently in these days,
when sisters thought it smart to dress
exactly alike, it was considered a
compliment to copy friends gown.
Another interesting statement of this
precious manual is that no lady looks
worse than when "gnawing bone"

stairs after a match he knowed what
made the noise becaus, he could
smell tit was a skunk which had
got in through the wind which the
Deacon had left open. The next day

Wood Used by Ancient Britons.

Present-day Britons and their an.
cestors of very long-vanished past
are brought into close touch by the
discovery in large barrow near
Leek, in Staffordshire, of some of the
wood with which the ancient Britons
are said to have dyed their bodies.
The wood was found in the form OF
blush dust. In the same barrow
which is being removed for building
purposes, has been found a funeral
urn containing some of the bones Of
a child, and stone worked into the
shape of heart. Some of the blue
woad has been found before in an
other barrow in the same part of the
country.

Feeling of Fear Indicates Wrong That
Must Be Revised.

All the old abuses In society, uni
versal and particular, all unjust &C.
cumulations of property and power,
are avenged in the same manner. Fear
is an instructor of great sagacity, and
the herald Of all revolutions. One thing
he teaches, that there, is rottenness
where he appears. He is carrion
crow and though you see not well what
he hovers for, there is death some
where. Our property is timid, our laws
are timid, our cultivated classes are
timid Fear for ages has BODIED and
moved and ribbered our government
and property. That obscene bird Is
not there for nothing. He indicates
great wrong which must be revised

SIMPLE cATARRH REMEDY.
Take a Hyomei Treatment Four Times
Day and be Cured.

Hyomei has performed almost mirac-
ulous cures and is to-day recognized by
leading members of the medical pro-
fession as the only advertised remedy
for this disease that can be relied upon
to do just what it claims.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure ca
tarrh would be to have change Of
climate, but now with Hyomei you can
carry health-giving climate in your
vest pocket and by breathing lta few
minutes four times a day cure yourself.
The Hyomei treatment is simple
and easy to use. 1t destroys all ca
tarrh germs in the air passages and
enriches and purifies the blood with
ozone When using Hyomei the air
you breathe will seem like that on the
mountains, high above the sea level.
A complete HYomei outfit costs but
sI.OO; extra bottles, soc. If IL does
not give you satisfaction, the Red
Cross Pharmacy viii refund your
money. You run no risk whatever In
taking this reliable treatment.
