Simple Way to Cure Catarrh
by Hyomei Without Stom-
aCh Dosing

1t is the height of folly to dose the
stomach with internal medicines to cure
nasal catarrh. 1t cannot be cured except
the catarrhal germs that are present III
the nose, throat and lungs have been
killed.
The soothing air of Hyomei heals the
smartiug and raw membrane of the air
passages i'll the nose, throat and lungs,
kills off the catarrhal germs and rlds the
system Of the last traces of catarrh
The complete Hyomei outfit consists Of
a hard rubber inhaler which can be
carried i'll the pnrse or vest pocket, a
medicine dropper and bottle of Hyomei
and costs only one dollar, while extra
bottles can be obtained for so cents
Chas. Rhodes positively guarantees a
cure when Hyomei is used in accordanC e
with the simple directions OH the pack
age, or he will refund the money. This
certainly shows their faith and belief III
the virtues of Hyome.

IMPORTANT TO ALMA.
Profit by This and Find Safe
guard Against Many Ills.

Nothing is more important to Alma
than the good health of her people.
How can they fill their place in this busy
town unless they are we'll?
No one trouble is responsible for more
nervous ills, sleeplessness, general de
bility, weakness, back aches, rheumatic
pains, even ill-temper and peevishness,
than indigestion.
Fortunately, combination of remedies
called Mi-o-na stomach tablets, has been
discovered that absolutely cures indiges-
ton and restores to health and strength
the whole digestive system.
So reliable is Mi-o-na in curing all forms
of stomach weakness and troubles that
'Chas. Rhodes gives a signed guarantee
that the remedy will cost nothing unless
il cures. Mi-o-na sells for so cents, and
is invaluable to anyone who suffers with
indigestion, nervousness or weak stomach.

''TELL ME ABOUT HER" SHE DEMANDED.


tempestuous heart at her feet In season

Ell, clear cut face had been to Miss
Huston rs the open page OF a book.
But this was not quite the same Billy
from whom she had parted. The book
had appeared so to speak. in n differ
ent edition.
Her mind flew back to that parting
scene-to Billy standing in the middle
of the floor. big and awkward and al
together at her mercy.
But | love you so!' he had pleaded
humbly. Cant you ever care just n
little:'
mo: | never can" she had replied
impatiently, land I'm tired Of being
tagged around and gazed at and fuss
ed over all the time; it's tiresome |
wish you would go away" she had
ended suddenly
Billy regarded her with miserable,
unhappy eyes. "Of course, If you feel
like that" he said huskily.
IL do" she went on cruelty II wish
you would go away so that | needn't
ever see you. Some day you will meet
some nice girl who will like you, and
you will thank me for being so frank
with you" she had ended magnani-
mously.
That had been six months ago and
now she was speeding TO Mrs. Mon
teith's May party In Blllys motor-a
situation OF Mrs. Monteith's own de-
vising. III have asked Billy TO pick
you up on his way, remembering what
great friends you two are" the note
had said.
/ They breasted long slope winding
upward between ranks Of naples and
silver birches and slowed down to de-
sceDd bit OF steep, twisting road.
The 'chug chug" OF the motor grew
fainter.

changed"
Yes" said Billy.
Have you found that nice girl
/ predicted for youF'
Billy flushed.
Yes" he said.
A sudden sense Of dcsolation envel-
oped Miss Huston. She drew her
wraps more closely about her. 1t
seemed rs if without warning the
clouds had swept across the smiling
/ landscape and blotted out the warm
spring sunshine. Billy! She had al

So Billy was trying to make her
! jealous.
She had read a story like il once
about man who told the girl who
had refused to marry him an imagi-
nary tale OF his enga cement to anoth-
er girl, whereupon girl No. | had
burst into tears and promptly thrown
herself into the mans arms. Well.
Billy would find that she would not
throw herself into his arms. She
would play up 20 him. Afterward-
well. she might reIent afterward. She
had come TO regard Bfly differently
during the past six months.

81 would If / knew how" said Billy.
'Is she pretty?"
"She's beautiful"
Light or dark?'
Billy turned radiant face to his
companion. Her hair is dark-as dark
as yours"
Miss Huston smiled tolerantly. He
was too honest. too transparent. to play
SO delicate Il game.
She opened her eyes on him under
her heavy motor veil. "Of course you
love her very dearly" she said lightly.
To her chagrin hot flush dyed her
face from brow to chin.
Billy drew a tense breath.
Love her. / cannot talk about it.
It's like saying my prayers" he said
reverently.
Miss Huston leaned back In her seat
Why had she never realized before
how lovable Billy was?
They sat in silence their thoughts
keeping time to the monstrous beat of
the motor as the car swung smoothly
along the hard road Billy spoke first.
"She will be at Mrs. Monteiths," he
said half shyly.
OF course she would If the motor
continued to tear along at its present
rate and they didn't land in a heap at
the foot of one of the steep hills, she
would be there in about half an hour.
Dear, clumsy Billy! She had half a
mind TO tell him that she understood.
His next move was more skillful.
I'm mighty grateful TO you for put
ting me Oil the right track" he went
on reminiscently. IF il hadn't been
for you Great Scott" he broke off,
what a fool | used to make of my
self! l don't wonder you had no use
for me-"
That he should refer TO the past so
lightly piqued her. He needed to be
taken down Il little.
"Why bother about the past when
you are sure of the present" she
flashed back.
"Why. indeed" Billy was his cheer
full, smiling self again.
"Only | was no end Of fool and
I've always felt that | wanted to apol-
ogize to you for ranting around as
did. Though it was real enough to me
at least | thought so then-and l was
terribly cut up when you threw me
over" he went OH cheerfully, land for
a good while afterward, too"
"And them"
"Oh. then | neither" Billy's voice
was very gentle. He turned impul-
sively toward his companion. when
you see her" he said radiantly, you
will understand"
A shadow crossed Miss Illusions
face. OF course the whole thing was
only ruse OF Billy's, but for a begin
ner his part was remarkably well
played.
There was a little Jolt as Billy less
ened speed; then the car swung
smoothly into wide shaded drive

house. A laughing, chattering crowd
filed the wide porch-tea tables were
being set i'm the old fashioned garden.

BIG DOINGs FOR BULLFRoc
Schwab's New Company Begins Bus;-
ness With $1,000, 900 in Treasury

After spending a few hours with
Donald and Donald B. Gilies, the we
known mining engineers and operators
of the Tonopah- Goldfield- Bullfrog coun-
try, who came in from the east Tues
day evening, continued their journey
west at noon yesterday. The principal
business that took them east was the
big deal that resulted in the passing
of control of the famous Montgomery
ShOshOne bonanza at BullfrOg to
Charles NJ Schwab and his mining
associates. Mr.. Schwab will pass
through Ogden today and meet Messrs.
Gillies and Mcdonald at either Reno
or Tonopah on Saturday or Sunday.
While Mr.. Mcdonald was largely IN.
strumental in pulling off the deal th>t
gave Mr.. Schwab control of the SnD-
shOne he did not part with his own
the stock was commanding better than
S. a share in New York when he left.
Regarding the big company that hal
been formed by the Schwab syndicate
to operate the ShCshone, Polaris ami
other mines at Beatty, Mr. Mcdonald
stated that a modest capitalization
had been decided upon. The company
/ Sc l., h. a al
1t is capitalized for 100000 shares t
a par value Of 500. Fifty thousa ID
shares had been placed in the treas.
ury to provide means for the building
of mills, mine equipment, etc, ami
when the stock was opened to sub
scription it was quickly gobbled ~
Thus the new company starts off with
! 81 100000 at its disposal
Plans for the building of a SCOT IN
mill will be executed at once and 1t
will not be long till construction be
| gins. Plans for the future operation
of the properties and the general con-
duct of the big companv's affairs VIII
| be formulated, while Mr.. Schwab Is
on the ground. 1t is considered more
than probable that Donald B. Gillies
general manager of Mr.. Schwab's To:.1
pah Extension properties at Tonopah,
will be placed in general charge Ct
the Bullfrog enterprises.
S hipments will begin when the La:
Vegas & Tonopah railroad is COM

LOCATING DAMSiTES
Unwatered Land in Valley Above to
be Reclaimed

A party of Government Surveyors
arrived in town Wednesday, on tner
way to the head waters OF the Carson
river, where they will be employed il
surveying resovoir sites and locating
suitable foundations for the building
of the dams, to hold back the fio,i
waters Of the river.
While we were unable to get any
definite information it looks is it the
government is about ready to COM
mence the construction of the immense
projects which they have planned to
build on the head waters of the Car
son.
This will mean more to Douglas
County than any of the many goba
things that have developed in this
county during the past few months. 1t
will mean the influx OF many farmers
and business men, and a general in
crease all along the line of industry in
the valley. 1t will mean the settling
up of all the vast area of our until ed
land, and as this is the key to the sn =
cess of the county, the news viii
be hailed with JOY by all,
Right now is the time we should or
ganize, and work in unison toward
the building of our town, county an I
all industries. We should offer n
ducements to people of other states to
settle here. There are many men
working in the mines of our state who
if they put forth one half OF the same
energy they do in a mine would make
a success Of farming and would have
the pleasure of knowing that what
ever they earned would be from the r
individual efforts This is what the
storing of the water by the govern
ment will do for these men. 1t is our
duty to help foster these plans, and to
advertise our county to the outside
world in order to encourage the people
towards the agricultural resources VI
the state as well as the mining IN
dustry. The population OF this county
ought to be three times what 1t : now
and farming is the only thing that Will
bring it. ~ WAt

Christmas Quiet Here.

Christmas was observed more quiet

years. Save for a few affairs of a
private nature there were scarcely
any oDservances to speak of. In the
churches special services were held and

Nearly all Of the stores were closed

and public offices. The day came as
a relief to the business men after the
hard work of Christmas eve. The
small boys were out with frecrackers
and other fireworks, bat not to the
usual extent.
Altogether, the day was one of the
