OF course there is a possibility that

They may say that the simile, while
extremely picturesque, and not wholly

a convincing argument. The spectacle

"WHIsKY" COLD CURES.
Danger Of Using Alcoholic Mixtures
or Coal 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 q
cold, the injurious physical effect
should be sufficient to keep one from
using these strong medicines.
The most sensible as well as the
only 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 q
neat pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit, and the first breath of
its healing air relieves the irritation,
and its continued use soon effects a
thorough cure.
The best people in Pendleton al
ways keep Hyomei at hand In the
winter months, and at the first symp-
toms of a cold or bronchial trouble,
use the remedy and prevent serious
and lasting illness. If you have any
doubts as to the effects of Hyomei in
curing coughs. colds and all bronchial
troubles, the guarantee Tallman & Co.
give with every outfit should convince
you of its curative powers. A Hyo-
mel outfit cots 81, and If it does not
give satisfaction, Tallman & Co. 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,

the same time cautioning both races
against starting any trouble. While
considerable race feeling has been
aroused over the matter, no serious

Stationery Still Soaring In Price.

New York, Feb. S.-As rags are
still increasing in price the cost of
writing paper continues to advance
pro rata. A week or so ago the
stationery trade received notice from
the paper mills withdrawing all quo
tations pending revision, and from
what subsequently occurred prices of
writing paper were advanced as much
as 20 per cent. The price of rags
continues to advance, and as coal and
labor are both higher in price this
winter, further advance of per
cent was announced today. Tablets,
pads, hoxboards. ledgers, blank books
binding cloth, glue and printing ink
will also he advanced in some cases
as much as Is per cent.
