CATARRH A GERM DISEASE.
Wonderful Success of the Hyomci
Treatment. Guaranteed by
Bowditch, Webster e. Co.

Catarrh is an insidiouS disease of
most destructive tendency. Its APP
proaches are unalarming and it's
victims are well on the road to a
chronic stage or to dread consumption
before they realize their danger.
1t is not 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. 1t goes
directly to every nook and corner of
The air passages. disinfecting, healing
and curing To be convinced of this.
you have only to give Hyomei a trial,
and Bowdtch. Webster & Co. Will sell
You an outfit with the understanding
mat if the trial is not satisfactory, and
tne treatment does not relieve, your
money will be refunded.
You cannot afford to trifle with ca
tarrhal troubles for if neglected they
Grow worse and the annoyance ana
danger rapidly increase. 1t is best to
get Hyomei at the first symptoms OF
catarrh, such as stoppage of the nose
offensive breath, raising of mucous
oroppings in the throat, spasmodie
coughing. The sooner you use
Hyomei the sooner you will be freeC
from all these troubles. Remember
mat it will not cost you a cent to Try
Hyomei unless the treatment help:
You, for Bowditch, Webster & Co
guarantee, is clear and plain to refund
the money if Hyomei does not give
.satisfaction.

Why Not Bread?

eff wheat is the perfect food' you ask, "why
not eat more bread?"
But white flour isn't the whole wheat, you know.
The outer part and the germ are omitted The lax
alive elements the OIL and much of the protcd, are
missing.
But the vital fact is that. the starch in bread is
insuficcntly cooked
Wheat is largely starch And starch to be di-
qestible must be made soluble. The particles must
be separated the digestive juices can get to them
That requires long cooking and terrific heat
The inside of a loaf gets half enough heat
to break up those granules Of starch.
That is why brcad-savc when we'll toasted
is never advised for dyspcptics. And that is why
much of the bread that YOU eat never digests and
is wasted.
And that is the reason for Mapl-Flake.
In that, the whole wheat is steam-cooked tor
six hours. Then faxed SO thin that the heat can
reach every atom. Then toasted, for 80 minutes,
at 400 DEGREES.
The result is food that's all football nourish-
ment-because it all digests
Map-Fake food be-
the whole wheat into digest1ble
form. No other process does that 1t IS MAJ --,A

Arbiters Of War.


It used to be said that no first class
European power could AFFORD to 60 to
war without receiving the sanction Of
the Rothschilds. Today, according to
a writer In the New York Journal Of
Commerce, 1t can be said that two
groups Of New York hnanciers virtu-
ally dominate the larger financial af-
fairs Of this country. and woe betide
those who seek to try conclusions with
them. ]. P. Morgan & Co. and the
Standard OIL interests, including e.
H. Hartman and Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,
today occupy the same place in the
United States that the Rothschilds
held and to a considerable extent still
hold in Europe. The Goulds have
made stubborn fight to preserve their
independence. but with disastrous con
sequences, and as every fresh victory
adds to the power Of the dominating
combination the chances Of successful
opposition diminish. "'Tis true tits
pity; pity tits tits true" There is moi
an important railroad in the United
States that does not come under the
influence Of these fnanciers, and tht
| evidences are that the scope Of THU
community OF interest is steadily wild

Uncle Sans Airship.


At last the United States govern
went has been able to secure an air.
ship that promises to be of actual
service. One Of the three machines
built recently for the war department
has demonstrated that 1t meets the re-
Quirements Of Its designers contract
with Uncle Sam. With two men and
$50 pounds Of ballast Captain Thomas
s. Baldwin's dirigible balloon has
proved that 1t can travel at a speed
Of twenty miles an hour for at least
five miles. A slightly lower speed
can be maintained for two hours or
more. and obedience to the helm has
been shown to be possible. This air
ship has kept itself right side up dur
ing all the official trials. and that is
big thing for an airship to accom-
plish. Both Captain Baldwin and I'm
Gle Sam are to be congratulated on
its satisfactory performance.
OF course the showing made by the
Baldwin airship Is not quite as bril-
liant as that afforded by the Won Yep
pelin aerial fier, which has outstrip-
ped anything ever recorded In the air
navigation line. Nevertheless 1t shows
progress, and American progress at
that, which Is one of the most graft
flying features of the whole business
This drigible balloon may never be
employed for the purpose for which it
was intended--heaven grant that it
may not.-but it will serve an end

for educational purposes. The chief
signal officer will train soldiers in the
use of it, so that when the time of

know how to handle it properly. In
the meantime 1t Is likely that other
and larger airships will be built for
the government, although it is the

ship of moderate size will he of more
practical service than larger one.
