in st. Louis Saturday, April 7th, at
1870 p m. Of pneumonia, aged four

Funeral services were conduced by
Brother Moore, of Columbia 1t is
said that death loves a shining mark,
and is true in this case. Gladys was a
beautiful baby, dearly loved by all
who knew her. AS we stood by the
little white casket, laden with beauti-
full floral offerings we could realize that
another pearl had been added to the
crown Of Him who said: ''Suffer
Little Children TO Come to Me, and
Forbid Then Not, for Such is the
Kingdom Of Heaven Weep not,
dear father and mother, for little
Gladys has gone where ~sorrowlng and
sufferings are unknown, and parting
shall be no more. She was laid to
rest in the Benton City Cemetery.
The bereayed parents formally
residents OF this place, and their host
of friends extend their heartfelt
sympathy in their bereavement.
Ills sad to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart;
IT'S hard, so hard, to speak the words,
We must forever part.
Dearest Gladys, we have laid thee
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished till
we see thy heavenly face.
A FRIEND.

JUST BREATHE 1T.
Hyomei Cures Catarrh in Natural
and Rational Way.

No dangerous drugs or alcoholic con-
coctlons are taken into the system
when Hyomei Is used In the treatment
OF catarrh. Breathed through the
neat pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit, the balsamie healing Of
Hyomei penetrates to the most re-
mote cells Of the nose, throat and
lungs, killing all catarrhal germs, heal
ing the irritated mucous membrane
and efrecting a complete and perma-
nent cure.
No medicine taken into the stomach
can possibly reach the remote cells Of
the air passages, or give the immedi-
ate relief that follows the use Of Hyo-
mel. A few days treatment is usu-
ally all that is necessary to show how
quickly this remedy will cure catarrh.
So successful has Hyomei been in
the cure OF catarrh among their Gus
toners that Woodbridge s. Pnrdy sell
it under q positive guarantee that it
costs nothing unless It gives satisfac-
tion. The complete outfit sells for one
dollar, while extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for fifty cents.
