DANGER OF CATARRH.
Unless Properly Treated With Hyomei,
Becomes Serious.

Catarrhal troubles are far more danger
Gus than they seem at first thought.
If you have catarrh, there is an irritated
state of the mucous membrane and weaken
ed tissues which afford an ideal lodgment
and culture medium for disease germs,
especially those of consumption.
You should get cured as quickly as posi-
BILE before any dangerous germs that you
may breathe lodge on the diseased tissue
and work destruction in the throat and
lungs.
The easiest, simplest, quickest. surest
and cheapest way to cure catarrh is by the
direct method, breathing Hyomei. This
wonderful medcated air treatment does not
drug and derange the Stomach, but is
breathed in, directly following and destroy
ing all disease germs that may have been in
hailed.
The unusual way in which HyOmei is sold
by A. A. Howes & 60. is the best evidence of
their confidence in the treatment and should
dispel all doubt as to its curative properties.
They agree to refund the purchase price to
anyone whom HyOmei fails to benefit. and
you do not risk cent in testing its healing
virtues. A complete outfit costs but 90
if it helps you, not cent if it does not do
all that Is claimed for it. EVA

:. N favor of adequate armament as

no inconsistency in advocating both OF
these things at the present time; on
the contrary, those who have the pub
lie welfare at heart will fail in the per-
formance of part of their duty If they
neglect to labor for both. Effectual ar
bitration should be desired by every
far-sighted citizen; while under pres

armament would be inexcusable on the
part of those charged with the respon-

WILL TEST GOVERNOR HUGHES.
Brooklyn German Americans to Put
Beer Before Executive.

Brooklyn German -AmerIcans to Fue
Beer Before Executive.
New York. Oct. 15.-Will Governor
Hughes drink stein of beer? was the
question uppermost in Brooklyn yes
terday. 1t was regarded as more di-
rectly affecting the outcome OF the
election in that borough than the tar
iff or proposed bank guarantees. The
governor is to be the guest of the
German American league in Williams
burg and East New York next Tues
day evening, and the purpose of his
visit is to overcome the opposition
which it is feared exists in those quar-
ters because of drastic legislation.
1t was announced that Mr.. Hughes
would meet leading Germans at ban
quet, mingle with them and prove to
them he is not as straight-laced as
they have been led by his opponents to
believe.
The banquet will be served in one OF
the German halls, and beer will be
dispensed in liberal quantities. The
politicians made no secret of the fact
that the governors hosts would watch
his handling of stein with as much
interest as they would await his
speech. They also stated it was a ques-
ton, inasmuch as the issue had been
raised. whether it would be prudent,
whatever his inclination, to quaff the
beverage at this stage of the cam
paign.
