The decorations of red and white

of the rooms, and over the windows.
"St. Valentine" in bright red letters
greeted the guests from one of the
windows. Red hearts with heart
quotations from the Bible in white
were hung on the walls. On the stair
landing Miss Alice tombstone had
charge of the candy table, which was
covered in hearts. In the sitting
room there was miniature post
office with Miss Emma tombstone as
postmistress, and in front in red let
tiers the sign "OffiCe, open from nine
to ten thirty" Here the little folks
mailed their Valentines, and at the
appointed hour called for them. The
remainder of the evening was spent
in playing games.
Each guest brought a heart offer

bad weather a large number were
present and a good sum raised.

CATARRH YIELDS

der Guarantee by Dawson Drug Co.

L
der Guarantee by Dawson Drug Co.
Catarrh is the most prevalent dis
ease known to humanity. Probably
ninety per cent. of the people in this
country suffer at one time or another
with this common disease.
1t is a 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 meth
cd of treating catarrh, as it's medi-
cation, taken in with the air you
breathe, goes directly to every air
cell in the nose, throat and lungs;
kills all catarrhal germs; heals the
irritated mucous membrane and vital
ICES the tissues so as to render ca
tarrh no longer possible.
The unique way in which Hyomei
is sold should dispel all doubt as to
it's curative properties, for the Daw-
son Drug Co. and Peoples Drug
Store give their absolute guarantee
to refund the price to any catarrh
sufferer that HyOmei fails to bene-
fit. You do not risk a cent in testing
its healing powers. What offer
could be more fair to you than this,
where a leading druggist takes all
the risk of Hyomei giving satisfac-
ton, and leaves you to be the Judge
