for it in curing catarrh, they want to
state positively that this guarantee is
an absolute fact.
A guarantee like this is the best
proof that can be offered as to the
curative powers of Hyomei in ali ca
carrhal troubles. You do not risk a
cent in testing its healing virtues,
DodsOn's Pharmacy take all the risk.
If you have catarrh, try this won
deful medicated air of Hyomei 1t
does not drug or derange the stom-
ach, but is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, so that its medication reaches
the most remote air cells in the nose,
throat and lungs, where any catar-
rhal germs may be lurking. 1t
quickly destroyes them, heals and
soothes the irrated mucous mem
brane and vitalizes the tissues so that
catarrh is no longer possible. You
can loose nothing by giving Hyomei
a trial, nothing but the catarrh and
that is good radiance.

ALLEGED DIARY OF
NOAH DUG UP
.SwindIing Scheme In
earthed in Michigan.

DETROIT, Nov. -(SpeciaD -
'Noah's Diary" engraved upon a
copper tablet, dug up in Michigan
and offered for sale to a Wisconsin
collector, has resulted in uncoyering
one of the cleverest relic swindles of
recent years A former State Official
a university museum curator and
other Michigan men are said to be
implicated.
Michigan copper formed the basis
of the enterprise, which consisted in
manufacturing ancient relics out of
copper, painting them green to repre-
sent verdigris, dipping them in corro-
sive acid and burying them in mounds
after which they were dug up by re-
lic-hunting expeditions under the
leadership of the promoters. The affi-
davit of prominent citizens that they
had seen the relics dug out of the
ground was sufficient TO bring about
a sale to credulous collectors, no
one dreaming that the prehistoric age
might have been only eleven months
before Indian copper implements,
battleaxes Of leaf copper, well tenn
Dored spearheads and other supposed
rare and anciently corroded relics
that have been treasured in Michigan
and outside museums are declared to
be bogus, with the result that all
collections of the sort are thrown I'M
der more or less suspicion
AS a finishing touch the relic man
ufacturers branched off from In
dian relics They went so far as to
dig up in the presence of reputable
witnesses bronze tablets purporting
TO tell Of the Biblical deluge and the
Tower of Babel.
The diary of Noah was offered to a
wealthy man Of Wisconsin, who
asked the advice of a museum cura-
tor as to accepting it. This man had
had considerable experience with
fakes, and warned the relic patron.
