He Knew,

The pretty teacher was trying to eX
plain the difference between good con

ones are the weeds. Now, can any lit

between flowers and weeds? What are
flowers? What are weeds.
Weeds" said Walter, who had been
struggling with tie sorrel in his moth

Color ChanQed by Fire.

Since the fire the color Of Baltimore
has changed. 1t used to be town
of red bricks, and to an observer
standing at the top of the Washing
ton monument it appeared distinctly
rudy. But in the buildings erected
since the fire the old-style red bricks
have been used but little Most ia
cades are yellow or gray or white or
salmon pink. The result is that the
city looks lighter and brighter. But
what the smoke and dust Of ten years
will do to this clay brilliance remains
to be seen.

BRONCHIAL TROUBLES
Rea dily Yield TO Soothing, Healing
Trea tment of Hyomei.

Bronchial troubles are purely local.
They cannot be helped by stomach
dosing. They are caused by irritation
in the air passages and can.be relieved
and cured by medicated air alone. In
this lies the secret Of the great sue
cess of Hy-o.mei in the treatment Of
bronchial troubles
The first breath Of Hyomeis medi-
Gated air soothes the Inflammation,
stops the cough, and relief soon be-
comes permanent and a cure results.
Hy.o-mei has made many remark able
cures in the worst and most chronic
forms Of bronchial troubles and is sold
by c. d. Demarsy with the same
guarantee as be gives when Hy.o-mei

Our silence for the last two
weeks can be explained in one
word "busy."
We weed killers have been
leading a very strenuous life
for the past few days and the
end is not yet. The weeds are
almost as numerous as the
sands of the sea shore.
The first crop of alfalfa has
been harvested and a great
deal of it is not first quality as
hay.
Harvest is practically upon
those who have fall wheat.
The potato bug has wrought
considerable damage in this To-
cality.
The children of R. H.
Thomas, who have been af-
flicted with what the DR.. pro-
nounced as the German mea-
sles, have all recovered except
one little boy who has very
sore eyes that was caused from
it.

that celebrated the 4th at Mo.
Valley where we renewed old
acquaintance, seeing some we
had not seen for many years.
Great place to meet old friends.
