A CRUEL ENDING
The Lonely Death and Desecrated
Grave of Laurence Sterne.

The Lonely Death and Desecrated
Grave of Laurence SteTne.
Laurence Sterne, the great writer,
was left alone in his rooms on Bond
street, London, in those last bitter
days. with a servant of the lodging
house for his only attendant. AS he
lay dying a knock was heard at the
door and q footman entered, come
from a house near by to inquire as to
his health.
The footman waited till the end, saw
the thin arm raised as If to ward off
a blow and heard the almost inarticu-
late murmur from white lips, Now it
Is Conner
Then he went back to the house,
where a large party was gathered, and
told the news to the feasters, most Of
whom were Sterne's friends. For the
space of half an hour they lamented
him, and then the talk turned on other
things-so soon are we forgotten in
this workaday world.
"Alas, poor Yerick!" His publisher
and single friend followed him to
the tomb, while ghouls watched out
side and marked the spot where he
was laid. Two nights afterward the
body was stolen. shipped to Cambridge
and placed. strangely enough upon the
dissecting table at his own university.

WHISKY" COLD Cures.
Oans.r of Uslne Alcoholic Mixtures or
Goal Tar Tablets.

The most dangerous thing that one
can do when affected with, cough or
cold is to use a medicine that contains
whisky or a tablet that is made of
some coal tar product. Putting aside
all moral objections to filling up with
whisky or drugs because one has a
cold, the injurious physical effect should
be sufficient to keep one from using
these strong medicines.
The most sensible as we'll as the on
ly scientific way to treat a cough or
cold, is by inhaling medication that
will kill the germs and give relief to
the irritated mucous membrane in the
nose, throat and lungs.
Among the few remedies that are
used in this way, Hyomei stands pre-
eminent. 1t is breathed through a
neat pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit, and the first breath of it's
healing air relieves the irritation, and
its continued use soon effects a thorough
cure.
The best people in Americas always
keep Hyomei at hand in the winter
months, and at the first symptoms of a
cold or bronchial trouble, use the
remedy and prevent serious and last
ing illness. If you have any doubts as
to the effects of Hyomei in curing
coughs, colds and all bronchial troubles,
the guarantee Dodson's Drug Store
gives with every outfit should con-
vince you of it's curative powers. A
Hyomei outfit costs 81, and if it does
not give satisfaction, Dodson's Drug
Store will return your money.
Extra bottles of Hyomei, if needed,
can be obtained for soc, but the COM
plete outfit is usually enough to cure
several colds.
