WHY Colds Are DANGEROUS.

Because you have contracted ordin.
airy colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for a moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in a common cold. Con.
sumption is not caused by a cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found Judgment. 1t is the same with
all infectious diseases. D%iptheria,
scarlet fever, measles and w%hooping
cough are much more likely to be con-
tracted when the child has a cold. You
will see from this that more real dan
ger turks in a cold than in any other
of the common ailments. The easiest
and quickest way to cure a cold is to
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected
by this preparation have made it a
staple article of trade owe a large part
of the world. For sale by all druggists.

IN WYOMING COAL FIELD
Newly Made Union Men Disappointed
Over New Conditions and They

Southern Colorado at Present.

1t appears that, considerable discon'
tent has developed in the Wyoming
coal fields, despite the new agreement
reached by the operators OF that dis
trict and officers Of the United Mine
Workers, says the Denver Republican,
Many of the union miners have be,
come SO disappointed over the new
conditions that they are forsaking Wy

orado coal fields. A party Of sixteen
men came into this state seeking work
under non-union conditions a day or
two ago, and others had already come
prior to hal time. 1t is anticipated
hat more will speedily follow, from
reports being received.
More Money in Colorado.
The exact reasons for this movement
of men is not quite clear, but the men
claim they can make more money in
the Colorado fields than in the states
where they have things more apparent

Gently raised in the coal fields of south
ern Colorado. voluntarily, and while
a comparison of the existing schedules
is not available. the miners say the
Colorado prices are the best.
Union Men Highly Pleased.
Only a few months ago the operators
of Wyoming and Montana came to
Denver and held lengthy conferences
with President John Mitchell and 9TH
er officers of the United Mine Workers.
The meeting extended over several
weeks and the impression was given
out that a very favorable agreement
had been reached, with which the III
ion was highly pleased.
Not Reiished in Colorado.
This meeting in Denver was not en-
tirely relished by Colorado operators
It seemed like a deliberate carrying Of
warfare into neutral territory, where
the coal miners were working along IN
perfect content. The chances that the
meetings would stir up discomfort in
Colorado fields we're very great. but
this did not occur.
Invading Non-union Territory.
Non-union conditions prevail in the
southern Colorado fields, and it was
expected that the men there would
view with envy MI. Mitchell's efforts
to establish ideal conditions in Mon.
tana and Wyoming. The reverse has
been the case, and now union men are

NOVEL Cure FOR COLDS =
Healing Medication That Is Breathed
Giving Quick Relief.

1t seems Just as ridiculous TO
put medicine into the stomach TO
cure cold in the head or lungs
as it does to 90 out in the rain if
we want to keep dry.
The fact that mLny people right
in Great Bend cough and hawk
and shuttle for days and weeks
after they treat a cold with the
usual stomach dosing, shows how
yalueless are the ordinary cough
and Geld cures.
The right way to cure a cold in
the head or a cough and irrita-
ton in the throat and lungs. is by
breathing Hyomei's metlicated
air. Put few dropsiof, Hyomei
in the neat pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit and
breathe this healing air for a few
times and immediate relief will
be noted. The medication goes
right to the spot where the disease
germs are located and renders
them harmless in the future
At the same time the soothing
and healing effects Of Hyomei on
the irritated mucous membrane
give quick relief, aud the cough
or cold is broken up.
The best evidence Of the great
value Of Hyomei in curing
coughs, colds and all bronchial
troubles is the fact that HOOPER
Drug Co. give an absolute
guarantee with every outfit they
sell, that if it does not give salts.

several months. Mrs. Holmes.
whose maiden name was Bucking-

married to John A. Leach, who
was a union soldier and who died
August 10Th 1865, leaving hi.
widow with one little son, Elzy
W., who grew to manhood and
was killed near Bald Knob, No.,
IN the early nineties, by a maniac,
who broke from.his captors. The
son being at that time in the EN-.
ploy of the Pullman company as
a car conductor. She was mar
ried to N. R. Holmes on Nov. IS
1859, and on Oct. IA 1875 they
came to Kansas and settled in
Great Bend. The first business
conducted BY Mr.. Holmes after
reaching here was that of proprie.
tor of the old Travellers Home"
hotel. Later they ran the Valley

who died in 1901. and Pearl, re.
siding with his mother at the time
of her death. A sister. Mrs. S.
NJ. Harwood has been assisting
Pearl in taking care of mis-
mother the past few, months.
Mrs. Holmes was a plain spoken
hard working woman, who made
friends with all. She went
through the pioneer history of
this part of Kansas, and did her
share, in connection with her
family, in making the desert
bloom like a garden, She was a
devout member of the Methodist
church, and Rev. Selle of that
denomination will have charge of
the funeral services, which will
be conducted from the late home
Wednesday at 2 p. m. The many
friends of the family, and es-
pecially the scores of young
friends of Pearl, will extend to
him and his aunt their sympathy
in their hour of bereavement, and
trust that they will so conduct
themselves that in the other world
the family will be once more
united.
