Under Bonds but Complainant
Declines to Press Charge.

Charles Webb, forty-fiye years old
of SO William street, Tottenville,
was arrested by Detective Long last

Webb was arrested, several more
were found in his possession.

the charge.

American Mems Young Look.

American men, all over the world,
have been attracting attention of late
on account of the extraordinary youth
fulness of their faces. The papers of
France, German weeklies English
magazines, all marvel alike at the
young look of the American grand
father.
And. indeed, with his plump, firm,
smooth shaven countenance, many an
American grandfather might pass for
youth fresh from college.
To massage is given the credit for
the American mans young look.
Every American barber is nowadays
masseur, and most American men take,
after shaving. an occasional massage,
while many men are massaged every
time they are shaved.
American BARRIERS. Furthermore, are
admitted to be rapidly becoming the
best masseurs in the world. The rea-
son is not far to seek-they get such
excellent practice. A barber has one
patron with crowsfeet, another with a
lined forehead, a third with crisis
crossed cheeks. These men come to
him day after day. day after day he
appleS various movements " .iio'i
faces and studies the result: soon he
learns, as it were, all the wrinkles, and
all the wrinkles for obliterating them.
American BARRIERS on account of their
skill as masseurs, are In demand in
Paris the home Of massage.
American women. because their faces
get no such careful treatment as their
husbands, lack the youthful look to
be found in the men.

cATARRH NOW DURABLE
But Never by Medicine Swallowed
c.,Se. casau. ~ no.oh>e


Snuffs, Sprays or Douches.
Catarrh is not a blood disease and
that is why it cannot be cured by any
medicine taken into the stomach. Ca
tarrh is germ trouble contracted from
the germ-laden air you breathe in
ward These germs fasten themselves
in the tissue and air cells of the
breathing organs, multiply by millions,
cause sneezing, coughing, raising of
mucous, discharge from the nose, diff
ficulty in breathing, hoarseness, dry
ness and stoppage of the nose, tickling
in the throat and other symptoms that
can only be reached by the dry air
principal of Hyomei.
1t medicates the air you breathe with
the curative properties of the Austral-
ian Eucalyptus Forests where catarrh
is unknown.
The reason you get relief in minute
or two from Hyomei is because it de-
stroys every catarrhal germ in the air
you breathe, and its dry penetrating
aroma will reach the innermost recesses
of the air passages, killing millions of
germs minute. Their destruction
means freedom for oppressed respira
tory organs. Mcbride & Will sell Hy
omei under a guarantee Of satisfaction
or money back. Price, $1.00.
