CURE CATARRH NOW.
Do Not Wait Until Winter Or Disease
Will Become Chronic.

Many people in Sumter are begin
ming to cough and hack with the fall
symptoms of disagreeable and Often
s'ye catarrh. The tongue is coated
in the morning, and they do not sleep
we'll at night on account of disagree
able tickling and dropping at the
back of the throat as result of
catarrh. Before the disease becomes
chronic they should use Hyomei and
get complete freedom from their
catarrhal troubles.
If you neglect to treat catarrh
when it comes on, the chances are
that it will become so firmly rooted
and deep-seated that it will bother
YOU all winter and may become
chronic and almost incurable.
The first da,'s use of Hyomei Will
show decided improvement IN
health, and in short time there VIII
be no further trouble, and you Will
be free from catarrh, and coughs ana
colds will not bother you during the
winter
Remember that Hoomei IS sold un-
der an absolute guarantee that II
costs nothing unless it cures. ). +.
W. DeLorme has sold great many
Hvomei outfits, every one with MS
personal guarantee that it costs moth
ing unless cures, and he has seen
so many remarkable evidences of the
curative powers Of Hyomei that he
is very glad to continue giving TINS
guarantee with every package.
\ complete Hyomei outfit costs
but ST. extra bottles, if needed, so
cents.

Cow Homes.

The discovery of a new wick prin-
ciple-so effective and yet so simple
that it's a wonder no one thought of
it before-has so revolutioniZed the
manufacture Of oil heaters and
lamps that explosions, smoke and
smell, caused by imperfect wick ar
rangement, may safely be regarded
as things of the past.
This new wick attachment is to be
found on the Perfection Oil Heater.
Interesting tests show that, although
the heater gives intense heat, the
wick cannot be turned too high or
too Iowa bsolute safety thus being
assured. One other feature which is
worthy Of mention is the smokeless
device which prevents all smoke and
odor. The portability Of the heater
also commends it for general house
hold use. Heater, is very light and
can be easily carried about. Its SIM
pie operation, usefulness in heating
water and warming cold rooms make
it a most handy and useful article in
any home. This heater is so far su-
perior to other oil heaters, and is of
such fair price that its universal
adoption is but a matter fine.
The Rayo Lamp, which is made by
the manufacturers Of the Perfection
Oil Heaer, is without doubt the best
lamp FOR all-round household use.
Is equipped with the latest improved
burner, and gives bright, steady
light at small cost. Suitable for any
room, whether library, dining-room,
parlor or bedroom.
The Perfection Oil Heater and the
Rayo Lamp form a combination that
for real home comfort cannot be
equalled. When consideration is
taken of the simple operation Of
both heater and lamp, their absolute
safety, the intense heat generated by
the one, and the bright and steady
light given by the other-all without
smoke or smell their value in any
home, large or small, can be some
what appreciated Sold by all good
dealers.

Dun's weekly Review.

New York, Oct. 5.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review Of trade tomor-
row will say: No unfavorable de-
velopments have appeared except the.
damage by storm at the South which
was almost entirely local in effect
Autumn trade is now in full swing,
especial activity being reported in dry
goods, millinery and footwear. Manu-
featuring plants are engaged far in
advance in all Of the leading indus
tries, the metal departments making
the most striking exhibit and the ac-
tivity of transporters is shown by
railway earnings in September, s.2
per cent. larger than last years fig
ures.
Crop returns are up to expectations
caused a violent advance in prices.
Scarcity Of most forms Of steel and
pressure for quick delivery tend to
harden quotations, while the rise in
pig iron has continued until the influx
position of a few years seems to be
attained.
The most importan DEVELOPMENT Of
the week in the textile industries was
the elimination of irregularities in pri
mary price for raw material. Pur-
chasers who had hesitated to place
orders beyond immediate needs in the
hope that better terms would soon be
available, changed their attitude abb
ruptly and endeaeavored to arrange
distant deliveries.
Curtailment Of the production by
scarcity of labor has prevented accu-
mutation in first hands. No support
comes from the export division, a
small sale in India being the only
business reported this week.

Pawnee Bills Historic Wild West and
Great Far East Show.

There is something about the Wild
West that excites in the minds Of all
tendency to magnify This is
probably because first Impressions
made by the Wild West, when seen
by youthful eyes, upon plastic minds
and brains not yet hardened by ex-
erc;se is a lasting one. Men as they
grow old, cling to their iools OF
childish fancy as sort Of relief To
the prosaic ulitilarian things Of life
which work UP this resistance in
later years. This idea is given birth
by the extraordinary announcement
Of the coming Of the famous Pawnee
Bill, Americas big and only histbri-
cal Wild West and Great Far East,
will appear in Sumter, Friday, Oct.
Der 10, in all it's entirety. Or course
there could be no stupendous show
without huge parade, and no pa
rade where it could be announced in
plain, matter-of-fact, everyday speech.
The atmosphere Of artifciality is al
ways alluring, whether in the theatre
or upon the street. If you simply
announce street parade without
giving detail of the professional fea-
ture, it would be entirely inadequate.
For this lesson it may be well said,
that Pawnee Bills mighty modern
holiday pageant will pass the prin-
cipal streets Of thu. city on the fore
noon Of the day during which the
powerful Wild West will give its ex-
hibition here.
Everybody or nearly everybody
hereabouts, have arranged to be in
town as this will be the only big show
coming this year. The great parade
promises to surpass anything ever at
tempted with travelling organiza-
ton. and will be a superb spectacle
of sunlit splendor. Bewildering and
an-amazing and inspiring-embrac-
cling an army Of people from all ma
tfons, showing the simmer Of satin
and the sheer Of silk, the shining OF
bright armor scintillating like the
glowing irridescence Of the rays of
the sun or twinkling lights Of the
stars on cloudless night in June.
This tremendous parade will be two
combined cavalcades Of Pawnee Bills
Wild West and Great Far East ex-
hibition. The first section will be
formed as follows with additional
features added:
Mounted Military Couriers.
Detachment of the United States
Cavalry.
Major Gordon w. Lille, (Pawnee
BilD, the Monarch of the Plains.
Miss May Lille, the Worlds Cham
pion Equestrian.
Indian Warriors, Squaws and Pa

and South American Ganchos.

WORKING FOR. ANNEXATION.

Havana, October 4.-Now that the
disarmament of the revolutionists and
the government volunteers is pro-
crossing steadily the thoughtful por-
tons Of the public Of all nationaities
are again intimately discussing the
possibilities Of Cuba's future form Of 1
government. The desire for annexa-
ton, which has been carefully con-
cealed for the past four years, is now
voiced openly, and the wish that the
United States control in Cuban affairs
is heard more insisently than ever.
Representatives Of leading ele-
ments, both Cuban and foreign, have
been asked to attend q, meeting next
Sunday to discuss the feasibility OF
holding some sort Of plebiscite, bX
which all classes Of the population y
would be enabled to express their
ideas on what the future form Of gov
ernment should be. q
The idea of holding the next cleo
tions in January has been abandoned,
the general preference among Cubans
appearing to favor the holding OF
elections in June. TIE question Of
the status Of congress and whether
Senator'S and representatives are to-
receive their salarie>, after the estab>
lishment Of the Provisional govern
ment will, be decided in Washington.
Reports Of the disarmament opera
tons show considerable delay and
confusion, but no real opposition. On
the whole the work is progressing
smoothly and the only complication
encountered was met and disposed Of
today by Gen. Funston, assisted by
Gen. Agramonte, Of the disarmament
commission. It appears that Gen. As
bert's agreement to disarm and dis
band was conditional on the surren-
der and disarmament also OF all the
policemen in the town Of Guines.
Gems. Funston and Agramonte went
in an automobile to Guines to-
straighten out the matter.
Upon their arrival the mayor Of
Guines, Senor Ayals, absolutely re-
fused to discharge the police. Gen.
Funston declared that unless tne
mayor agreed to conditions an armed
force would be sent to disarm AS
bert's army, which numbers 1.10O
men, and that this will possible re-
suit in bloodshed. Argument had no =
effect on the mayor, until he was told
that he could retain the police pay
roll and reinstate his men after quiet
had been restored. Gen. Funston
further suggested the sending Of ma
rines to police the town temporarily
and this plan was accepted. Gems 2
Funston and Agramonte then visited
Gen. Asbert at the village Of Cottero
and found him agreeable to this COM
promise. Accordingly, twenty-five
marines will be sent to Guines tomor-
row to police the town and receive,
under the supervision of Gen. Agra
monte, the arms of Asbert's force.
