~ ~
Justias long as you have catarrh
your nose will itch, your breath will
be foul, you will hawk and spit, and
you will do other disgusting things
because you cau't help yourself. The

rsistently digging into and irritating
the mucous membrane of your nose
and throat. They are now making
your life miserable: in timo they will
sap your entire system OF its energy,
its strength, its vigor and vitality.
But there is one remedy that will
kill the germs and cure catarrb, and
that is Hyomei, the Australian dry
air treatment.
Hanson & Emerson the druggists,
will guarantee Hyomei to cure catarrh
or money back. Don't delay this an
tlseptic treatment. Breathe in Hyomei
and kill the germs.
Hanson & Emerson will sell you a
complete Hyomei outfit, including
inhaler. for only $1.OO. 1t is also
guaranteed to cure bronchstis, asth ma,
coughs, colds, hay fever and Group.

A POCKET WIRELESS.
Boy Who Can Telegraph Home as He
Walks AIonu the Road.

Walter J. VIII enborg is a boy who
has 6e<i@ed to conquer the problems
of wireless telegraphy. He has his
own laboratory adjoining his bedroom.
He has constructed wireless receiv-
ing station at the top of the house.
Curious to see what could be done
on very small scale, savs st. Nichol-
as, Re invented and maze portable
wireless telegraphic station that he
could carry about in his pockets.
From the top button of his coat he
hung a slender wire that reached to
the ground and SO arranged that when
he ked along a country road the
wire would trail upon the ground be-
hind him.
In his pocket he carried little bat
terry. On bit o. board as big as your
hand he placed a complete wireless
transmitting apparatus, induction coil,
baby scunder and all, supporting this
fairy telegraph station by fastening it
to belt around his waist
From this travelling station he sent
messages from a country road to his
folks at home. eight miles away in
town, telling them where he was and
where he was going and that he would
reach home in time for supper.

There is nothing that more clearly
indicates the. trend Of public senti-
ment in apolitical a campaign than the
betting odds offered on candidate.
This is illustrated in the present state
campaign. Johnson money is offered
everywhere in the Twin Cities at odds
Of one hundred and sixty and one hun
dred and eighty to one hundred, with
NO takers. Some few bets have been
made at two to one, but 1t is difficult
to find jacobson money even at those
odds. A business man of Hallock, Kilt
son county, which is supposed tn be
the jacobson stronghold of the state,
writes friend in St. Paul that he has
$500 of Johnson money for which he
can find nc takers in the Red River
valley. He wants to know if he can
place it in St. Paul or Minneapolis at
odds Of one hundred and fifty to one
hundred. These odds, however, are
not as good as those offered in betting
resorts of the two cities and it is ex-
trenlely doubtful that the money will
ever be placed.

DON'T SMOKE
A Bunch of Good Advice rendered
to the Young Men of the
Country

One of The Herald's exchanges has
the following good advice for young
men:-
Several of the players on the local
high school foot ball team haye been
persuaded to promise to refrain from
smoking cigarettes during the foot ball
season. Whata pity that any boy,
whose parents are trying to give him
good education, should injure mind
and body by smoking during his
high school days. When he gains his
majority is time enough to begin the
expensive, filthy and absolutely worth
less habit of smoking. Cut it out boys,
it retards your progress in school and
will keep you from being the man
which you ought to be. Ten years
from now you will marvel that you
could think of so injurlng your pros
poets in life and regret it for the rest
Of your days. ..
You owe it to your parents, who are
educating you, to the tax payers of
this community who are paying their
money every year to provide you a
schooling, to yourself you owe it to
cut out the pernicious habit of smok-
ing cigarettes. Cut it out during foot
ball season and all the time until you
reach years of discretion, then, may be
kindly providence will provide you
with good sense enough to cut it ut
forever.

know our dear brother Leslie passed
away this morning at IL minutes oil
eight. / know this will be sad news
to you but we had short warning
ourselves. Leslie took cold a week
ago Tuesday and he grew worse from
that time. Everything was done for
him that could be done, but his time
had come and nothing could save him
The asthma affected his heart and
that is what took him so suddenly.
Oh, how wish you were here. 1t is

TIE PUSH CARTS.

Nearly 5000 of Them in Use in the
City by PeddIers.
Of push carts such as venders use,
consisting of pair of wheels with
shallow body or tray mounted On
them on springs, there are in Man
haitian and the Bronx about 5,100 and
in the other boroughs less than 900,
making about 5000 in use In the city
altogetke-.
Hand carts, such as laundrymen,
grocers and others use, are made in
factories. but the typical posh cart
Of the veIdGr is made mostly in small
wagon shops and other workshops on
the East side to FIJI orders as they
come along. TIE wheels. with tires
on and axle boxes fitted, and the
axles and springs and other metallic
fittings required can be bought Of
dealers in carriage and wagon stock,
and practically all that the maker of
the cart las to do is to make the
sbsllow bcd.7 or tray and put the cart
together
n its siu,'ect form as most COM
monty sean just fiat tray ON
wheels n1sh cart costs about $18-
Sometime hanging box is attached
to the under sESe Of TIE body at one
end, in which the vender may carry
raircoat or otter belongings, add
ing little to the cost of the cart, and
some carts for candy have a glazed
box extending the length of the cart,
making it sort OF show case on
wheels, such carts costing some dol
lars more.
So they are none of them very
costly, but even counting them all at
the cost of the sort most commonly
used it will be seen that the push
carts of the city represent invest
ments somewhat exceeding 100000.

City Election on Monday a
Quiet Affair---New officers
Take Charge Julyi.

The city election of last Mon
day was one Of the quietest af-
fairs ever pulled off in Condor.
This was no doubt on account of
the political campaign being
waged for the Offices Of Senator
and District Attorney in this
district. The Citizens ticket"
as named at the mass meeting
held the previous week at Armory
Hall was elected without any OPP
position. although a few scatter
ing votes were cast for other
persons for the office Of mayor.
In all there were only II votes
cast, which goes to show that
few took interest in the election.
The ticket as elected is: N.
Farnsworth, mayor; ]. A. Scott,
r. E. Myers and J. w. Hire.
councilmen for two years; J. c.
Hardman, councilman for one

engine to do his plowing with

The engine will pull eight ID

poets to turn over twenty five
acres per day. Considering the
fact that he has 100 acres to
plow, there is no doubt that his
purchase win prove to be a good
one. This engine is the first to
be brought to this county for
this pnrpse and the experiment

Crop Prospects Are Excellent.

crop ProspeCtS Are Excellent.
The grain is sprouting up very
fast the last few days and the
farmers are again wearing that
contented smile. Reports from
the Mayyille flat say that the
fields are taking on their velvety
green coat and that since last
week the grain has sprung up
in a surprising manner.
There is plenty of moisture in
the ground at the present time
but warmer nights are needed.
In the northern part of the
county the prospects are equally
bright. S. T. Bunch & Sons of
Blalock, who are extensive grain
growers and who will harvest
3100 acres this fall, say that the
prospects look good. Last year
they had in $500 acres which
averaged 10 bushels to the acre.
