Woman's Trials.

The bitter trail in a woman's life Is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The alb
sence of this link to bind marital life
together. the absence Of this one pledge
to mutual affection is q common disap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even If they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the

BRONCHIAL TROUBLES
Readily Yield to Soothing, Healing
Treatment Of Hyomei.

Bronchial troubles are purely local.
They cannot be helped by stomach dos
ing. They are caused by irritation in
the air passages and can be relieved
and cured by indicated air alone. In
this lies the secret Of the great success
OF Hy-o-mei in the treatment Of bron-
chial troubles.
The Hy-o-mei medication, laden with
natures remedies, is breathed through
a neat pocket inhaler thatNcomes with
every outfit, reaching every part Of the
bronchial tubes and killing at once the
disease germs. 1t allays all irritation
and heals Inflammation of the mucous
membrane with astonishing rapidity.
Treatment with sprays, touches and
atomizers in bronchial troubles is con
demned by the best physicians. as they
cause further irritation.
The first breath of Hy-o-mei's medi.
Gated air seems to soothe the infamma'
ton, stop the cough, and thus relief
soon becomes permanent and a cure
results.
Hy-o-mei has made many remark

ic forms of bronchial troubles and Is

THE MAN BETWEEN.

In his speech at the opening OF the
jamestown exposition, President
Roosevelt said: This great republic
Of ours shall never become the gov.
eminent of a plutocracy, and it shall
never become the government of a
mob"
The extremes have been fighting for
the center of the stage a long time;
this is the day of the man between.
President Roosevelt Is himself the rep
resentative, the champion Of the aver
age man in American life, Of the even
tempered. calm minded, peace loving
American citizen who goes steadily on
about his business, doing the best he
can for himself and his family, respect
ing the laws, believing in the stability
of the American principle of govern
ment, and willing>to give everybody
else in the world an equal chance with
himself in all things.
The man between seeks no advant.
age, feels that he will get all that is
coming to him and that he can take
care of himself in the matter of the
other fellow getting the best of it.
You neye hear him railing against
capital nor weeping his ideas out about
labor, as the two are spelled in politi-
cal campaigns with capital letters. He
has an idea that capital is the fellow
who has worked a little harder and
been a bit keener than himself, and
that the labor that howls longest at
election times is the kind that is least
willing to do a days work for a days
pay.
The man between takes a temperate
view of both; he does not want what
the one has secured beyond him, nor
does he feel inclined to divide his OWL
with the fellow who has worked less
hard to get ahead. He asks of the gov
eminent and courts only good schools
for his children, sound laws and pro-
lection from the powers that prey. The
rest Of it he feels able to take care of
himself. He knows that his neighbors
Of the same mind will join him any
time in righting any thing that goes
too far wrong, and his study of his fel-
low man tells him that the great ma
jority Of mankind is honest and inclin:
ed to play fair.
It Is the mau between who is at once
the peace maker and the pace maker
Of the country. The extremes wouH!
be ever quarreling, eve at each 9th,
er's threats but for the big fellow who
goes on ever about his business, keep
ing them apart For years the man at
the n extreme has been clamoring for
laws to retard the one at the other,
claiming himself to be the country, the
people, the n for whom government
was established. From the noise the
extremists makes it would be judged

Iuxuries of Modern DAYS.

The laborer of to-day has luxuries
that neither Queen Elizabeth nor King
George of our great-grandfather's time
ever dreamed of-daily mail, tele-
phone, street cars, electricity for do
nestle purposes, homes well lighted,
well plumbed and well-heated, to say
nothing Of the thousand and n arti-
cles that we daily use and do not
regard as luxuries-for example,
matches. Nowadays contagious dis
eases do not devastate our cities, be-
cause state and municipal laws unite
to enforce protective sanitation.
Never were homes so clean and well
cared for as by the housekeepers of
