cATARRH A GERM DISEASE.
Success Of Hyomei Guaranteed BY
T. F. Laurin.

Catarrh is an insidious disease oi
most destructive tendency. Its ap-
proaches are unalarming and its Wit
tins are well on the road to chronic
stage or to dread consumption before
they realize their danger
1t is not a blood disease, but is
caused by germs that lodge and grow
in the air passages, causing irritation
with poisonous and offensive mucous
discharges. To cure this condition,
stomach dosing is ineffective and the
only healing agent is Hyomci Ii
goes directly to every nook and cor
ner OF the air passages, disintecting,
healing and curing. To be convinced
OF this, you have only to give Hyomei
a trial, and T. r. Laurens will sell you
an outfit with the understanding that
ii the trial is not satisfactory, and the
treatment does not relieve, your
money will be refunded
You cannot afford to triiie with ca.
tarrhal troubles, for if neglected they
grow worse and the annoyance and
danger rapidly increases II is best
to use Hyomei at the first symptoms
of catarrh, such as stoppage OF the
nase, offensive breath. raising OF
mucous, droppings in the throat,
spasmodic coughing. The sooner you
use Hyomei, the sooner you will be
freed from all these troubles.

GENERAL IMPROVEMENT OF

For Establishing Agricultural
High School Other Items of
General Interest.

That the educational spirit is on
the upgrade and the tendency Of the
people is to give more thought to the
problems connected with the carry
ing ON of public schools is demon
skrated quite clearly, and perhaps
more fully, by the large attendance
Mt the State normals and the educa-
tlonal rallies which have been held
In the rural districts for the past few
weeks. State Superintendent j. N.
Powers has just returned to his head
quarters from round of visits in
south Mississippi, including his visit
TO the interior of Jackson county. In
faet Mr.. Powers has been almost en-
eIrely in the remote districts, which
he deems of more Importance than
the residential and commercial CEN
ters.

Convics Returns

William Cox a few days ago made
ms escape from the farm in com
Pany with a fellow-convict by the
name of Young and went to the home
of his mother in Lawrence county,
where he has remained since, until
IN company with a brother-in-law. he
started for Jackson. Uupon meeting
Governor Noel he identified himself.
and animated that he had come for
Tor further orders, the Governor in
mating, of course that the only orders
that he could give him were to return
to the custody of the state prison au-
thOrities. That he is mentally I'M
balanced seems quite evident, and, in
fact, he has been treated by Surgeon
Mitchell at the State Insane Hospital
SINCE he became a State convict, re-
maining therein several months.

Attorney General Fletcher is de-

for getting up complete roster of
the bench and bar Of Mississippi, a
work that will be most valuable, and

piled by the late Attorney General
Williams, which is out Of date, there

Farmers Union Matters.

President Hightower, of the Farm
ers' Union intimates that there will
be a general meeting of the county
leaders early next month, when a
number of matters will be discussed
and placed before them with the pur-
pose Of bringing about the harmony
and uniformity in action in respect
TO marketing warehousing and finan-
eng the cotton crop. Whether the
compulsory acreage proposition will
be a live question from a practical
standpoint at that time is specula-
tive only. depending on the views the
Executive should the matter be Sc
rlously presented to him for action,
Mr.. Hightower is satisfied that the
plans for holding back the surplus
cotton and for the financing of the
crop by the combination with the
bank are fixed and practical, and con-
siderS the outlook to be very bright.

: The Board Of Trustees of the Beau,
voir Soldiers Home will assemble in
quarterly session on Friday, July 8,
Tor the consideration of number of
regular routine matters. It is posi-
bic that the Board will take action
IN among which will probably be a
superintendent. The legislative com
mttee, after visiting the Home and
making careful inquiry last Febru-
airy, intimated that the interests of
the Home might be subserved by a
change in the superintendent's office,
The present incumbent having created
antagonisms among the inmates. The
matter was left open after the April
meeting Of the new Board and it is
not altogether probable that choice
win be reached at the forthcoming
meeting; if not then it will go over
WIFI oc'ooer' ssg,srss e.
