RIGHT BREATHING CURES
tATARRH
simple Way to kill Catarrhal Germs
in Nose, Throat and Lungs

If you cut your finger, you don
attempt TO heal it by swallowing a
pill or a dose of medicine.
1t is just as foolish to try and cure
catarrh of the nose and throat with
pills and stomach dosing, for catarrh
is a local disease, and needs special
local healing treatment.
The only natural and common
sense method known for the cure of
catarrhal troubles is Hy-o-mei. 1t is
breathed through an ingenious peck
ct inhaler. so that its medicated air
reaches the most remote air-cells OF
the nose. throat and lunxs. killing all
catarrhal germs, soothing the irrf-
tated mucous membranes, and restor-
ing a healthy condition.
If YOU suffer from catarrhal trou-
bles, such as offensive breath, rails
ing of mucous, frequent sneezing,
husky voice. discharge from the nose
droppings in the throat, loss of
strength. spasmodic coughing, or a
feeling of tightness across the upper
part of the chest. YOU should begin

troy all disease germs in the nose,
throat and lungs. and provide the
blood with additional ozone.
The complete Hy-o-mei outfit with
inhaler costs but $500. So strong is
Hood & Curlins faith in the power
OF Hy-o-mei TO cure all catarrhal
troubles that with every dollar out

to refund the money unless the rem

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject OF building for the readers OF this
paper. On account of his wide expe-
rience as Editor, Author and Manufac-
turer, he is, without doubt, the highest
authority on all these subjects. Address
all inquiries to William A. Radford, No.

A seven room cottage house that
may be built for about $4,000 under
favorable circumstances is here given.
Down stairs there is parlor, dining
room and kitchen with one bedroom
and n bath room with an entrance
from the bedroom and another en-
trance from the kitchen, which facili-
tates warming the bath room from
the kitchen when there is no fire in
the furnace. There is a convenient
grade entrance to the cellar which
may be reached by four steps down
from the kitchen. This arrangement
leaves room in the corner of the en-
trance for a good sized refrigerator,
provision that is valuable in any
house and one that is appreciated
by every house-keeper
The size of this little cottage is
twenty-eight feet wide by thirty-eight
feet long, exclusive of the porch,
which is not very large on the ground
and not very high; but there is
room for four rooms down stairs and
three rooms up stairs with a good I'M
finished attic for storage, and there
is plenty Of closet room. A woman
never gets too many closets. Archi-
tectS are often worried because of
the demand for more closets than
they can find room for. One advant-
age of arranging bedrooms in the
roof like this is that the low portions
of the roof may be used to advant-
age for this purpose. Some women
prefer an attic over the bedrooms, but
many would rather have a store room
of this kind because it saves climbing
two pairs of stairs. 1t is impossible
to have every good thing included in
one plan. Cottage houses may be
lighter in construction than two story
houses and they are more economical
where the roof space is utilized as 1t
is in this house. The three bedrooms
on the second floor represent just that
Charlevoix county herald., 1907-11-30

to be ashamed of. A house OF thi|
size gives opportunity to have a bed
room down stairs, convenience thai
every house does not possess. Theri
are generally in most families al
least one old person who objects II
climbing stairs. 1t would be difficult
to arrange a more comfortable bed
room than this one, in fact few largi
houses have a room of this kind. AL
a usual thing when building too littl|
attention is paid to the comfort of thu
old people. They have spent thei|
lives in the interests of the famil1
and 1t is only right that they should
be remembered in their old age. WI
frequently see aged people who ar
compelled to stay upstairs day afteI
day because they dread the Tip vi
and down.
The appearance of this house do
ponds q good deal on the colors an |
stains used for outside decoration. OF
general principles it is a good pla
to avoid all shades Of green. Gree

during the process it is likely to tax
on some very sickly shades of colo
that are extremely disappointing

shade of green when it is first pu

which was $1,000 more than the own
er had put into it. 1t required good
persuasive powers to induce money
lender to advance such a fabulous
sum as $1,000 and the borrower had
to put up personal security as a side
issue to money shark to get the
deal through, all of which illustrates
the difference between doing business
in good times and bad times.
1t will be noticed that the roomsl
while not large, are big enough to ac1

man. every inch of him! An officer
every inch of him! And a daredevil

Now. happened to be shipmates with
Lieut.. Cushing when he commanded
the Monticello in 1864.
well, sir, to get down to my story
Lieut.. Cushing was commanding the
Monticello in February, '64 and, of
course. he was her cap'n. / won't go
into the hackneyed talk of how we all
loved him. Do you know how old he
was? Just "a, as I'm a livin' sinner.
For some time we hadn't found
anything to do, and the days had hung
rather heavy on our hands. We was
always lookin' out for somethin to
turn up, but though we were under
way and at anchor, going in close
and drawing off again, lodging around
Frying Pan shoals and steaming I'D
and down off Fort Fisher and New
inlet, those wretched blockade run
ners would douse the glim and slip
by us in the night, over and over.
The Monticello was not a very big
boat, but she was plucky, and her
commander was q match for her. One
day / soticed there seemed to be
something going on. Preparations
seemed to be making for landing
party.
First we saw the old man get in
the gig and pull over to the flag
ship, askin' permission, maybe, and
then, along about night, saw that
there seemed to be some sort of con-
sultation and talk among the officers.
1 asked the signal quartermaster what
Vas up, and he answered me politely
that | could go and ask the cap'n.
Then / asked the orderly who was
round the cabin door to run errands
and messages. He told me to go
right In the cabin and ask the capn,
and probably he'd tell me all about 1t.
Then I asked an afterguard-sweeper
what all the rumpus was. and he said
he was darned II he knew, but he
thought they was gettin' ready to go
a-fishin'. Well, l felt pretty well
snubbed, and by an afterguard-sweep
er, too!

time his little cottage was pointed

on the street Instead Of being a
damage to other property 1t was a
most valuable acquisition. A great
deal depends on the way things are
done. It is easy to put up a big
barn Of hosse that no one likes and

house like this for a small outlay and
make 1t into very interesting prop

home, was talked about and soon be-

said:
'Cap'n, l wish you'd let me take
charge Of the expedition.
WHO would look out for the ship
asked the old man.
Why, pardon me, cap'n, could go
in your place.
Then | heard Cap'n Cushing laugh
the sort OF laugh that says: i guess
you don't know me-
No, no., said the capn. You have
your work to do here. It's a great
deal harder to stay behind, and that's
why / choose you to do it. l know
case like this, and you'll just have to
put up with it, Orderly!'
Il heard the orderly come running
aft.
Tell Acting Ensign Jones that
wish to speak with him, and ask
Acting Masters Mate Howorth to
come into the cabin
Then | knew that he was in for
something desperate, for those were
two as plucky officers as we had on
board the old Monticello. / couldn't
really say with justice that they were
the most plucky, for there wasn't a
pins point it seemed to me. to choose
between any of 'em.
We'll, I stood and listened. Of
course / knew it wasn't right, but l
was bound TO find out what they were
up to. / heard the officer who had
been urgin' that he might go along
rise and sigh and go out of the door.
Later. when l crept back to my sta
ton. saw him walkin' up and down,
up and down and lookin' on the deck
and shakin' his head, and l heard him
say: Just my luck! Just my luck!'
From this you can see how many
skeery ones there was in the ship.
I'm moment Acting Ensign Jones
was in the cabin, and shortly after
Mr.. Howorth followed him. The en-
sign was out Of breath.
30, cap'n,' he said, L hope you're
going to take me-
Take you where?' asked the old.
man. l could hear the smile in his
voice.
Wherever you're going, cap'n. /

what-Tll-do, but, Fll-I'll-'
There was silence. / peeked in
through the port. There was Mr..
Howorth standin', his mouth working
sideways like dingey in the trough
of the sea, and actually, if you'll be-
lieve me, his eyes were full of tears.
He might have known he was goin.
lieve l should boo-hoo over the rail.
too, If somehow or other / didn't get
onto that boat.
"'Of course, you're going said the
cap'n, and now whom shall we take
along?'
The mems names we're discussed.
There's SO and so, and there's so and
so. Finally they mentioned me. My
heart actually stopped beating.
well, they're all good fellows
said the old man.
Suppose we call for volunteers
said one of the officers.
They'd all volunteer, every man

BILE Is that those on board will feel

II nearly put my head into the port
and shouted: Take mel but l knew
that such breach of discipline would
land me in the brig, with no going
ashore for a week, perhaps, SO /
crept back TO the fo'c'sle and waited.

Then he called another and another.
