NOVEL CURE FOR COLDS.
Healing Medication that is Breath
ed, Giving Quick Relief.

The fact that many people right
in Mt. Sterling cough and hawk
and shuttle for days and weeks
after they have been treating a
cold with the usual stomach dos
ing, shows how valueless are the
ordinary cough and cold cures.
The right way to cure a cold in
the head, or a cough and irritation
in the bronchial tubes, is by
breathing Hyomei's medicated air
from the neat pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit. Take a
few breaths in this way, and i'm
mediate relief will be noted. The
medication goes right to the spot
where the disease germs are and
renders them harmless.
W. :. Lloyds gives an absolute
guarantee with every Hyomei out
fit. He says that if it does not give
satisfaction the money will be
refunded. The complete Hyomei
outfit costs. but Sl.00, while extra
bottles of Hyomei, if needed, can
be obtained for only soc. 26-2S

JAMAICA'S CAPITAL
WRECKED BY
EARTHQUAKE
of City's Most Important
Buildings Destroyed or
Damaged.
About 1000 Killed and 10000
are Homeless.

Kingston, the picturesque CAPT.
tai of the Island of Jamica, has
been devasted by a violent earth
quake on Monday, Jan. 14th.
Kingston, and the other points
of interest of the Island, are at this
season of the year thronged with
tourits from both America and
England.
The first great shock was felt
about $3.50 o'clock on Monday
day afternoon. and as in the San
Francisco and Valparaiso distas-
tiers, flames Immediately sprang
from the wreckage to carry on the
work of destruction. Tuesday af-
ternOOn the fire was still burning.
The Myrtle Bank Hotel. the prin-
cipal hotel at Kingston, which
probably sheltered the great bulk
of visitors on the island, is report
ed destroyed. The great military
hospital was burned. and forty
soldiers reported dead.
Kington already bears the scars
of number of disastrous vista
tons of fire. earthquake and cy-
clone.
The city is one of low-lying
buildings, clustered along the
shore of one of the finest and most
securely landlocked harbors in the
West Indies. The population,
which numbers $4,000 is largely
made up of native blacks.
Reports received from Jamaica say
it is estimated that 1000 persons
have been killed by the earthquake
and fire, and 10000 are homeless.
The damage to Kingston, the CAPT
tai, alone is placed at fully So
900. 900.
All people have been warned to
keep away from Jamaica. The
stencil there is described as awful.
Famine is imminent. Rich and
poor alike are homeless. Provis-
IONS are urgently needed. 1t is
impossible to say where anybody
can be found. The loss of life is
very great. The mercantile COM
munity suffered most severely. All
the shops have been destroyed. and
all the buildings in and around
Kingston are in ruins.
The shore of the harbor is sink
ing and there is feared that the
city will sink beneath the bay.

she must provide thirty thousand
or none, all for the navy and all
ready to be dispatched together.
To many of her associates this
seemed an impOssibility, but Mrs.
YAKIMA was undaunted and she
met the test. From hi. h and low.
from far and near, bags poured in
upon her; they were measured,
filled and stamped. Then from
men of the army came the request.
May we not have comfort-bags.
tOo?" Again an appeal was sent
out for help and, in time, the
army also had it's thirty thousand
bags. The inspirer of the whole
labor received five thousatd per-
sonal letters of thanks from the
troops.
One motive which urged Mrs.
Yaiima's coming to America has
not been mentioned. 1t was her
earnest desire to thank 1.-THE Great
Mediator" as she styles President
Roosevelt, for, his service, in Sc
curing peace to her county. The
opportunity came without effort.
for the President telegraphed an
invitation to all the foreign dele
gates of the Boston convention to
an audience at the White House
on November Z. About a hundred
were present. When our Japan
csc friend was introduced, taking
the Presidents hand she inquired
''How is your illustrious daughter,
she who so cOndescended to visit
my little country last year! | hope
she is WE'LL" This was interpreted
and, still holding his hand, she
said: In the name of the women
of Japan, | wish to thank you as
the mediator when my country was
in the throes of war" and she made
deep, low bow the poetry of
grace, known only to Japan" Mr..
Roosevelt made happy relpy and
she left saying: Nov | am ready
to 90 back to Japan: my dream is
realized"
When Mrs. YAKIMA became a
Christian, she was a widow in
middle life. A humble, unedu-
Gated Bible woman led her to
Christ, and with finding Him, our
friend found new world of
thought and activity. She
began to study and. at the age
of forty, she received a govern
menu cefUlHcaUe as Ueacllel -Ulle
first woman in Japan to take the
examination. 1t was of Gods
good ordering that she and women
of America became co-workers for
Him. Japan will be nearer to those
of us who saw her and, as she
leaves the Pacific shore, many new
friends will follow her with affec-
tionate farewell and the prayer
that she may yet render much ripe
service for Christ in Japan.
Mrs. YAKIMA was interpreted
by her beloved grandniece, the
daughter of a japanese pastor and
a graduate of the JOSH Gakuin in
1902.

". c. 7. U. WORK
Some of the Good Things done
by these Women.

Among foreign delegates to the
convention of the WOman's Chris
tian Temperance Union held in
Boston last October, came Mrs.
Kali YAKIMA, leader of the temper
ance movement in Japan. For the
FIRST time in her life and against
be expostulatiOns of friends. she
had left her native land and at the
age of seventy-four years, at her
own expense and unable to speak
English, she had crossed the
breadth of ocean and continent to
represent her countrywOmen in the
convention. and determined if pos
sible to secure from America two
permanent missionaries in the in
terest of temperance for Japan.
All this was fully accomplished.
The International Convention
pledged itself to send one white
ribboned missionary and sustain
her during life service, and a
member from New York City
undertook to do the same for an
bther. We have the authority of
Mrs. McCauley of Tokyo, who
was also delegate in the con-
vention, that all Mrs. Yajima's APP
pearances there were useful and
carried blessing, whether she Of
fered prayer in her native tongue,
or with true japanese fitness and
politeness made addresses. which
were interpreted for her, on the
platform of fremont Temple.
To Boston and the audience
there gathered, Mrs. YAKIMA was
comparatively a stranger, but
when she visited in New York,
Washington and especially Phil
adelphia, she found herself in the
arms of her friends. Some of them
she had seen before in Japan, and
to many more she was known by
name and honored for her works
sake. 1t is about thirty years that
Mrs. YAKIMA has been the japanese
head of one of our dearly-lOved
schools, the JOSH Gakuin at Tokyo.
During all this period, she has
been the intimate daily companion
and friend of American mission
aries, and the relation has been one
of unbrolen confidence and cordi-
atty on both sides.
To continuous labors and re-
sponsibility in the school, Mrs.
YAKIMA has added constant service
in the Christian Church, and her
staunch principle and steadfastness
have had their influence as far as
she is known. She has the con-
fidence of the japanese govern
ment. To her alone was intrusted
government stamp to be on comfort
bags for soldiers in the late war.
She was held to a strict account for
the bags their exact size, number
ank contents, and whatever she
Stamped went without official in
spection to the front. She even
dictated the contents, in part, for
while Japan would gladly have
sent cigarettes to the men, Mrs.
Yajima's position on the entire
temperance question obliged her
to refuse them. A severe test was
required of her at the outset, Gov
eminent was too busy with its war
to bother with a few cOmfortbags:
