How H. Goodman Sells Hyomei, the
 Guaranteed Cure for Catarrh.

H. Goodman has an unusual offer to make to our readers one that will be of the greatest value to many.
 For some years H. Goodman has been watching the results from the use of Hyomei. a treatment for catarrh that cures by breathing medicated air, ab- sOlutely without any stomach dosing The results have been so universally successful that he feels justified iH making a public offer to treat the worst case of catarrh in Phoenix with the understanding that if Hyomei does not cure the treatment will cost absolute ly nothing.
 with catarrh specialists. deriving but little benefit or the many who have swallowed stomach remedies in the vain hope of curing catarrh, have ex- perienced almost immediate relief from the use of Hyomei, while the continued treatment for a short time, has result ed in a complete and lasting cure.
 The regular Hyomei outfit costs only one dollar, and consists of a neat pock- at inhaler that can be carried in the purse or vest pocket, a medicine drop pGl, and a bottle of Hyomei. If this is not enough for d cure extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for 50 cents
 Ii. Goodman pOritively guarantees a cure, if Hyomei is used in accordance with directions. or he will refund the money.

FROGS AND TELEeRAkHY.

Central Australia is a long way off, therefore this story may be told with perfect confidence that no one will rise up with statistics and a diagram to refu:e it. Frogs are in central Austra- lia the great enemy of the overland telegraph line. They continually inter rupt communications. They are wire tappers. In order to save the insula- tors from being broken by the light ming, they are provided with wire 'drOppers" to conduct it on the pole in case of need. The frogs climb the poles and find the insuIators cool and pleasant to their bodies, and fancy that the "dropper" is put there to furnish them with comfortable seat. After a nap, they yawn, and stretch out a leg until it touches the pole. Result, sud- den death to the frog, and, as the body continues to conduct the current to earth, we have a paragraph in the po- pers to the effec- that, 'in conse- quence of an interruption to the lines. probably caused by cyclonTc disturb lance in the interior. we are unable to present our readers with the usual ca bles from abroad

HIS DESIGNATION.

 The child knew that her mother was in earnest. so she set a seal on her lips. At last she seemed to have for gotten it. but one Sunday Mrs. C.. who had been too ill to go to church, asked her if she could tell what the minister had preached about in his sermon.
 "Oh yes'm'' she answered. "he preached about the Lord going up in 10 the mountain and being tempted by -by-by the gentleman who keeps helr'
