CATCHING SUMNER BOARDERS.
That's the Leading Industry Up in New
Hampshire.

Hampshire.
The summer boarder has come TO be
the leading industry Of New Hampshire
The Granite State admits it. There are
cotton mills in the State and a brewery
and few minor industries, but the summer
boarder leads them all
New Hampshire thinks 80 much Of the
summer boarder that II is one Of the chief
duties Of the State officials to corral him
And when they've got him they proceed
forthwith TO sell him an abandoned farm
for q summer home and make him a more
or lees permanent resident.
The State Board Of Agriculture has Is
sued the sixth edition Of New Hampshire
Farms for Summer Homes the object Of
which. In it's own language, is TO picture
a few Of the manifold scenic beauties Of
the State. to record and preserve the ap-
probation Of them by famous men and
women, and TO show how well adapted
are almost all sections Of the State for
the establishment Of country homes Of
every Sort great and small, elegant and
simple. costly and cheap, castle and camp.
II any one whose name Is known among
men spends the summer or a part Of ii In
New Hampshire he Is called upon promptly
for a testimonial for publication in the
States yearly newspaper. There Is great
rejoicing in the latest number over the
fact that the Ambassadors from Great
Britain and from Germany spent last sum-
mer in the State
Baron Won Stenburg, the German Am
bassador, had been there before. The
note Of appreciation he wrote then is re-
printed and there Is picture OF him in his
most resplendent uniform. And further
to attract the summer boarder the Baron
IL dubbed a Count.
Ambassador Bryce from his own account
was pretty well pleased with his summer
in New Hampshire His neighbors gave
him reception and an oil painting on his
departure and asked him TO come again.
His picture appears in uniform, an unusual
costume for Mr.. Bryce.
The book gives many examples OF what
can be done with an abandoned farm.
You can or could a few years ago
get one for a nominal sum. Here is the
experience Of Clarence johnson. reading

clerk Of the United States Senate, who has
q place on Jenness Lake He says:
II illustrates a. well as any summer home

there is no doubt that he got his moneys

Joseph Stanley, son of ]. W. and
Martha Lucas, was born in Marshall
township, Highland county, Ohio,
February 9, 1884. The family moved
to Paint township March 1884
Stanley was converted and united
with the Methodist Episcopal Church
In Rainsboro under the labors of Rev.
q. G. Curless. He began teaching in
1908 in the home district. He also
taught in Ross county, attending bust.
ness college in Chillicothe at night.
He attended high school in Hillsboro
and for time was a student at the
University at Ada, Ohio.
Last year he taught in No 10 Paint
township and was re-employed for
this year. On account of failing
health, his cousin, Miss Maude Lucas,
took his place. After a seeming
partial recovery of his health he
began again his chosen and loved
work. But four DAYS of this labor
compelled him to give 1t up.
His sufYerings at times we're severe,
but we're borne with fortitude and
resignation. Despite all that skill
and loving care could do he steadily
failed, till on Christmas night, a few
minutes before midnight, he quietly
and without struggle fell asleep in
Jesus.
Stanley Lucas was good young
man. he was Christian His mind
was of fine texture, Had life and
health been given he would have made
his mark in the world But he has
gone to join loved ones. on high.
Among these holy ones, his sainted
mother, who went to her heavenly
home December l, 1901.
A large number of people ATTENDED
the funeral service, at Rains ooro
December 2S. The burial was at the
Beavers cemetery. The beautiful
ritual of the Order of Redmen was
used at the grave. -

VALUE OF RIGHT BREATHING
Health Comes From Knowing How
and What to Breathe.

Dust laden with the germs of Con.
sumption or other disease is inhaled
by all who use the streets, but sease
is not developed unless the germs q nd
conditions suitable for their lodgme II
and growth.
With people having catarrh there
is an ideal medium for these germs, as
the irritated membrane and weakened
tissues is hotbed where germs must
thrive and multiply uutil they are
numerous and active.
If you have catarrh, you should use
the easiest, simplest and quickest
cure, the direct method of Hyomei,
whose wonderful medicated air Is
taken In with the air you breathe
directly following and destroying all
germs that have been inhaled, repair
ing any damage they may have worked
and so healing and vitalizing the
tissues as to render catarrh and germ m
infection no longer possible.
The unusual way 10 which Hyomei
is sold should dispel all doubt as to it's
curative properties, for W. r smith
& Co., offer to refund the price TO
anyone whom it fails to benefit. You
do not risk cent in testing the heal
ing virtues OF this breath of life, for
with every Sl.00 outfit W. II. Smith 8,
Co., give guarantee to relieve ca
tarrh' or money refunded.
