JOLT FOR CUPID FOLEAAN
Court House Janitor Instructed That
He Is to Stop Marrying Peo-
pie in Building.

that is now foremost In the mind of Ell
der George FoIkman. janitor of the coun-

Gently won the title of the marrying
elder" FOlkman has been Informed that
the wish OF the authorities is that he
discontinue his practice Of marrying IN
the county building. But will be do
it? That is the question.
1t is not known whether or not this
action on the part of some of the local
church authorities comes as a result of
jealousy on the part of other elders, who
feel that that they are not getting a
fair share of the work. This, however.
IS believed by some TO be the basis OF
the wish"
The information was conveyed to Elder
FolSmdn some days since by the bishop
of the ward, who said he was acting I'M
der the instructions of the president of
the stake The message was that III
was the wish of the authorities" that he
discontinue marrying people in the coun-
~ building.
1t is said by his friends that this kind
of discrimination interferes with the
rights conferred upon elders of the
church of which Mr.. Folkman is one.

CATARRH YIELDS
To Healing Air of Hyomei. Sold
Under Guarantee by
Demarsy.

Catarrh is the most prevalent dis
ease known to humanity. Probably
10 per cent. of the people in this
country suffer at one time or anothe
with this common disease.
1t is germ disease and hence can
be cured only by some method that
will reach and destroy the germs.
This is best found in Hyomei,
which may be called the direct method
of treating catarrh, as its medication,
taken in with the air you breathe,
goes directly to every air cell in the
nose, throat aud lungs; kills all ca
tarrhsl germs; heals the irritated
mucous membrane and vitalizes the
tissues so as to render catarrh no lon
ger possible.
The unique way in which Hyomei
is sold should dispel all doubt as 10
its curative properties, for ..Demarsy
gives his absolute guarantee to refund
the price to any catarrh Sufferer that
Hyomi fails to benefit. You. do not
risk a cent in testing its healing
powers. What offer could be more
fair TO you than this, where the
leading druggist takes all the risk OF
Hyomei giving satisfaction, and
leaves you to be the judge. 4-lO u
