A RECORD BREAKER.
Last Years Sales Of Hyomei, the
Guaranteed Cure for Catarrh
Larger Than Ever.

The merits of Hyomei (the treat
ment that cures catarrh without
stomach dosing). its popularity and
growth. are unique in the annals OF
medicine. So pronounced is the re-
lief and cure following the use of this
treatment that 1t has been publicly
recommended by leading druggists
and physicians in nearly every state
and toYn in the country, with the re-
suit that last years sales were larger
than ever.
The fact that Hyomei is so simple
and complete, and that 1t cures by
breathing medicated air and not taxi
ing drugs into the stomach, no doubt
has helped to create this widespread
and rapidly increasing army of
friends.
The way in which it has been sold
by Tallman & Co. has undoubtedly
aided greatly its introduction in Pen
dleton. They are such firm believers
in the power of Hyomei to cure all
catarrhal troubles, that they urge
people to use it with the understand
ing that the cost will be refunded to
anyone who is not benefited by the
treatment. You do not risk a cent
in testing the healing virtues of Hy-
omei, for Tallman & Co. take all the
risk of its giving satisfaction and
leave you to be the judge.

New York newspapers for the two
months covering the racing season.
1t was like searching for the needle
in the proverbial haystack, but it bore
fruit, for in the New York Herald of
May "a the searchers discovered this
advertisement:
Found: At the Grand Central station
late yesterday afternoon sum of
money in bank notes which owner may
have, after proving property, by ap-
plying to B-344, Herald Office"
1t is hardly necessary to say that by
this time Mr. Wilkie had several spe-
cimens of Crahan's handwriting. After
the ''ad." was located in the Herald,
the original copy was found in the
records of the office and it was in the
handwriting of Marcus Graham.
The government was now in posses
sion of sufficient evidence to convict
Graham. both of passing and having in
his possession counterfeit money, but
the authorities did not know where
the plates were, and how the money
had been printed The big problem
was to locate the plant, to pull it up
by the roots, and effectually stop the
circulation Of these spurious notes.
Graham might have confederates and
his trial and conviction, while impor-
tant in itself, would be very
incomplete satisfaction for the
government. One morning after the
case had been pending for many
weeks, and after Wilkie had all of the
facts in his possession, Graham was
brought to the Office of the secret
service division in st. Louis, and Mr..
| Wilkie, placing his prisoner under pa
role, invited him to go out and take a
bite to eat with him. The prisoner
had already begun to feel the effects
of his confinement, and he was de-
| lighted to even obtain temporary lib
erty, and the satisfaction Of good
meal at first-class hotel.
The two men sat down together, and
Graham was given a breakfast that
would have delighted the palate, and
warmed the heart, Of the most con-
| firmed epicure. 1t was topped off with
fine Havana cigar, and then, thia
formality having been disposed of, Mr..
Wilkie proceeded to give Graham the
third degree" But this third de-
gree" so called, differed as widely
from the popular conception of the OPP
Grafton as the day differs from the
night.
Graham" said Wilkie. your con-
viction is as certain as that the sun
is shining this morning"
Wilkie followed this up by plausible
argument along the same line. and
always pausing long enough to permit
his words to sink into the mans
consciousness. The argus-eyed rep
resentative of the United States gov.
eminent knew by experience that
there is nothing in this world more
difficult for man to do than to ad
NIT to another man that he has
been guilty of wrong. He realized,
therefore, the necessity of giving Cra-
han an opportunity Of confessing
gracefully. He did this by sugges-
tion, by innuendo. by appealing to the

Her Reason.

Not long ago there was tried in an
Ohio court suit for damages where
in the principal witness, woman liv-
ing near Dayton, was induced to come
to court only after several subpoenas
had been served upon her.
When the dilatory witness was final
ly brought before his honor, he said
in his severest tone:
what reason can you assign,
madam, for disobeying the summons
of the court?"
Il amt got none, Jedge," answered
the woman, meekly, "cnly we've got
smallpox down to our place. an

egated to go to st. Louis for the pur-
pose of entering bail, employing
counsel, and doing whatever else might
be deemed necessary to protect the
rights of Mr.. Graham. For ten long days
the secret service officials and the au-
thOrities of st. Louis made every pos
sible attempt to disprove or even to
shake the story of Marcus Graham, but
without any practical results. Under
the circumstances it really seemed
that it would be necessary to release
him for want of legal evidence.
Then John Z. Wilkie, who had been
directing the movements of his sub
ordinates by wire, determined to take
hold Of the case in person.
He immediately took train for st.
Louis, and after a number of inter
views with his associates in that city,
began to consider how to reach the
weakest link in the strong chain of
probability with which Mr.. Graham
was surrounded One of the earliest
! movements made in the investiga.
ton was to discover the exact hour
at which the electric lights were
turned on in the Union station. The
engineer of the electric plant was con.
| suited and his records showed that
on this particular date the switch
which put the lights into operation had
| been turned on at $40. Wilkie next
sent TO the newspaper office which
| had printed the found lad" and re-
| quested report upon the exact time
| at which the advertisement was &C
cepted. The clerk who received the
/ notice was finally located, and he re-
membered distinctly that he had
stopped work on that afternoon at
| five o'clock: the adj which he had re-
| ceived was the fifth or sixth above
the last one, and. according to his
own calculation, it must have been
handed in at half-past four o'clock.
This pointed to a discrepancy in era,
hans statement of one hour and ten
minutes.
One OF the significant discoveries
among Crahan's effects was number
of programmes of races at Grayesend
and two or three of the eastern tracks
| not TO speak OF one particular pro
gramme which contained the entries
of the races where the first book
maker had received the 500 bill which
ne deposited with his roll In the
Broadway Trust company. Crahar
calmly admitted that he had attended
all of these races; that he was lover
of horse flesh and that he occasionally
made small wagers on the results; blu
he denied positively having passed
any of the other $500 bills, and sait
that he had never had them In hi
, possession until he found the white
, envelope at the Union station In st
Louis.
, Wilkie did some very severe think
/ ing at this stage of the game, and GU
i of 1t all came the theory that /
: Graham was guilty, he might have use'
similar subterfuges in passing coun
| terfeit money at the eastern tracks
( The chief thereupon telegraphed New

heels, made a two-dollar bet on the
same horse. The favOrite won again.
The man "cashed in" and as he did so
was taken into custody.
He was marched over to the club
house and searched. A white en-
velope was found in his pocket, con-
tanning rs of the 500 counterfeit bills.
He said his name was Marcus era
han, the proprietor of an extensive
phOtO-engraying establishment at
Providence, r. l. He was perfectly
candid in his explanations. He said
that lie had been visiting the fair and
was a guest at the Southern hotel, and
that he would be very glad to refer
the officers TO any bank in the city Of
Providence for the purpose of estab-
fishing his moral and financial stand
ing. Nothing, apparently, could be
more STRAIGHTFORWARD. He was placed
under arrest, however, and then the
secret service men made an examina-
ton of his room at the Southern hotel.
There they found a suitcase con-
tanning $4,000 in genuine money. He
was asked then to explain how he
came to be possessed of the counter
felt money He said that on the pre-
vious afternoon he had gone to the
Union station for the purpose of hav
ing the return half of his railroad
ticket validated. AS he came out of
the ticket agents office, the electric
lights were suddenly turned on in
the waiting room, and he saw in the
corner on the floor a long white en-
velope He picked it up and found
that it contained $4,000 in 800 bills.
He Immediately went to the office Of
one of the local newspapers and in

money to its lawful owner. This part
Of his story was verified by the little

The Wealth ~ the See.

In representing the wealth con
tanned in the sea, Prof. Huxley has
pointed out that an acre of good fish
ting ground will yield more food in a
week than an acre OF the best land
will in a year. He also has drawn q
vivid picture OF a mountain OF cod"
120 to 1870 feet in height. which for
two months in every year moves west
ward and southwark, past the Norwe-
gian coast. Every square mile OF this
colossal column contains 12O. 900 600
OF fishes, which. even on short rations.
consume no fewer than $40 600 900 Of
herrings every week. The whole
catch OF the Norwegian fisheries never
exceeds in a year more than half a
square mile of this cod mountain, "
and one weeks supply Of the behring's
needed TO keep that area OF cod from
starving The harvest Of the sea, re
marks the New York Weekly, is truly
inexhaustible.
