MEETING
ACROSS The RAILROAD
Well Attended Monday Night Notwith-
standing Chilly Evening. Music by
Sontag Band and Three Excellent
Addresses.

Owing to the cool evening not
nearly as large crowd was
present at the bond issue meet
ing Monday night as was ex-
pected; but the fact that so
many, and the ladies particularly,
did brave the uncomfortable chill
liness of the air is decidedly en-
cOuraging. for it showed a strong
interest in the matter that
augurs we'll for success.
And those who attended were
we'll repaid for they were enter
tanned by some excellent
speeches and by number of de-
lightful selections by the Sontag
Concert Band whose services are
always offered. without price,
when it is for the public good.
Mayor MOutOn made the open
ing address expressing due
recognition of the kindness of
the weather man in mOderating
the temperature and furnishing
such a glorious moonlight night
for the occasion, also speaking of
the object of the meeting and his
confidence that May Is. would
show that Lafayette would again
vote for progress and prosperity.
He then introduced District
Attorney Campbell, who in
vigorous language answered a
number of objections which
have been raised against voting
the tax. And he particularly
empasized the fact that the con-
templated five mill tax for the
bond issue is not a new tax, it is
simply continuation of the
present five mill tax should the
tax be carried. and he expressed
his absolute confidence that it
would be, no one would pay
cent more taxes than now. Mr..
Campbell was frequently ap-
plauded.
Maj. p. L. DeClOuet followed
and put the matter in a plain
practical light. That the i'm
provements proposed were
needed no one could deny. A
town is judged by its appear
ance. A progressive town is
shown by paved streets, public
buildings, schools, etc.. and the

way such towns get things of
that kind is to put their hands in
their pockets. 1t takes money
to buy things, and when people
find that they ought to have a
certain thing, let them go down
in their pockets and pay for it.
Maj. DeClOuet spoke briefly but
he stated some very pertinent
truths.
Supt. L. j. Alleman was the
last speaker and made a most
convincing presentation of facts.
especially giving figures to show
what a slight expense the tax
would be to the average man.
He cited number of striking
cases, showing the cost to the
individual of the proposed tax
and the cost to the State Of edu-
eating his children. He in
stanced case where a man Cd
posed to it was assessed at $1,000
and would pay S. a year. He
had several children attending
the public schools whose tuition
would cost the State $4,000 by
the time they went through the
public schools and Industrial.
We're he to attempt to pay back
to the State the amount. it would
take him 600 years. And much
to the surprise of everybody he
quoted figures to show that not
a single person, not even the
richest man in the town paid
even approximately for his chill
dren's education. The school
funds were supplied by the rail
roads and corporations, and even
such being the case, yet could
they vote, their influence would
always be for schools. Mr.. AL
lemans argument was an ex-
ceedingly strong plea for the
voting of the tax and ought to
have made a convert of anyone in
the audience who was against
proposition.
By the time Mr.. Alleman
closed the weather had become
so uncomfortably cold that
Mayor Mouton announced that
the other speakers of the evening
would make their addresses at
the city park Thursday evening
and adjourned the meeting.

CATARRH A GERM DISEASE.
Breathe Air Medicated by Hyomei and Kill
The Germs.

Breathe Air Medicated by Hyomei and Kill
The Germs.
Now that physicians and scientists uni
versally agree that catarrh is germ dis
ease, the reason for the failure of the old
fashioned stomach-dosng in this trouble is
readily seen.
Prior to the discovery of Hyome, a treat
ment which cures catarrh by filling the air
you breathe with germ-killing and healing
medication, statistics showed that at least
ninety-seven out of every hundred persons
in this state we're suffering from catarrh of
some form. Although Hy0mei has been
known only a few years, the remarkable
results following its use are shown by the
much smaller percentage of those who suffer
with catarrh today.
The treatment with HyOmei is very simple
and pleasant; small inhaler comes with
every outfit and three or four times day
Hyomei is breathed through this, making
the air at that time like that found on the
mountains where the pine forests give off
their fragrant and healing balm.
Used in this way, Hyomei penetrates to
the most remote cells of the nose, throat and
lungs, absolutely killing all catarrhal germs
and effecting complete and permanent
cure of the disease.
The complete outfit costs but one dollar,
while extra bottles can be obtained for 30
cents. r. ii. Moody has seen such remark
able results from the use of HyOmei that he
sells it under an absolute guarantee that it
costs nothing unless it cures.

"Ou, baby had that dreadful com:

his whole body. His sufferings were
there was nothing we would not have
done to have given him relief. The

after various experiments Of his, which
resulted in no benefit to the child, we
sent to Macon, ILL.,, to druggist and got
q full set of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions, and he began
to improve Immediately, and in about
three or four days began to show a
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in year. In about ninety
days he was fully recovered, with the
exception of rough skin, which IS
gradually disappearing, and eventually
will be replaced by a healthy one.
