BEST CT PROOF
That HyOmei Will Cure All Forms OF
Catarrhal Diseases.

Testim onials could be printed by the
thousand, many of them from Laurens
and nearby towns, saying that Hyomei
absolutely cures all catarrhal troubles,
The best proof of its unusual curative
powers Is the guarantee that Laurens
Drug Co. give with every outfit they
sell, Money back if Hyomei does not
do ali that is claimed for it,"
Hyomei is not q secret remedy. It's
formula is freely given to physicians
who want to know what they are using
when they prescribe Hyomei. 1t is
Drug Law by Serial No. 1418.
There is no dangerous stomach drug
ging when Hyomei is used. It's healing
medication is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler, reaching every part of
the air passages, destroying all ca
tarrhal germs and curing the disease.

zone Touch of Nature Makes the Whole
World Kin"

When a rooster finds a big fat worm
he calls all the lens in the farm yard
to come and share it. A similar trait
of human nature is to be observed
when a man discovers something ex-
c~eptionally good; he wants all his
friends and neighbors to share the
benefits Of his discovery. This is the
touch Of nature that makes the whole
world kin. This explains why people
who have been cured by Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy write letters to
that others similarly ailing may, also
use it and obtain relief. Behind every
one of these letters is a w~arm-hearted
wish of the writer to be of use to some
one else. This remedy is for sale by

Prspsr Treatment For Rurrs.

In case OF burns death may be due,
first, to asphyxia; second, to shock,
and, third. to septicaemia.
The medical man seldom gets to the
case in time to treat the first condl-
ton, the second is essentially a gen
eral condition, while the whole success
in preventing the third depends upon
the immediate local treatment 1t is
therefore the last condition which must
be considered here. Among the public
1t Is a generally accepted idea that the
thing to do In the case of a burn is to
dust -four over II or TO cover 1t with
OIL, and, indeed, even in some compar.
atlvely late text books on surgery
mixture known as "Carron oil" Is ad-
vocated.
The use of such applications cannot
be too strongly deprecated, and, indeed,
II the lay mind could he taught that
the best thing to put on burn before
the doctor is called Is hot compress,
which should contain some boracic
acid II there Is any In the house, 1t is
probable that the majority OF deaths
due TO septicaemia after burns would
be prevented.
FE the whole aim and object of the
local treatment Is to prevent sepsis.
Flour and olive oil may be soothing
and may Rllay the pain, but there Is
no antiseptic property In them; rather
they are excellent culture media for
bacteria.-LondOn Hospital.

copyrighted, 1907, by NJ. NJ. Cunningham.


As the pony picked Its way up the
Wild, rock bordered canyon Ivy Norris
took in great breaths of the ozone Of
the Arizona foothills.
This Is livingv she cried, throwing
out her arms 1.-THE folks back home
would not know me These three
months spent in this wonderful eli
mate have made me strong and young
again. And this weather! Back in
while out here 1t Is golden sunshine all
day long. My heart is full OF the day
Thanksgiving! When | write back

out in the foothills all alone the folks
won't believe me. They'll simply say
I'm learning western ways fast-to
manufacture some big ones TO boom

The last of August Ivy Norris, pale,
thin and thirty, had arrived from the
east to teach the Lone Mesa school.
The cowboys on Mr. Towers ranch,
where she boarded and lodged, treated
the coming of the cultivated little wo-
man as n great joke. Her short skirts,
the boots and the handsome little re-
volver and cartridge belt furnished
them material for comment for weeks.
Even Warde Hughes, the foreman, was
amused at her first attempts to mount
and ride Pilot, the gentlest pony on the
ranch, but he equally enjoyed the pluck
with which she persisted In learning
10 ride and the use Of the little revolver
that looked so comically dangerous in
her small white hand.
On this Thanksgiving morning the
handsome foreman had refined In his
COW pony behind n thicket OF mesquite
trees and was watching faithful old
Pilot carefully bear his fair rider up
the trail OF Little Springs canyon. All
at once he became aware Of the fact
that a few months had wrought a
great transformation In the school
teacher Of Lone Mesa. The thin form
had rounded out into graceful curves,
the pale face had become plump and
rosy, and her awkwardness In the sad
die had given place to an easy manner
that could no longer be ascribed to a
novice
''She's like girl of twenty" he So
iilOquized. "By Jove, she's the neat

"Hera, of course, we are not troubled
by h1rts, but, then, should one by any
chance appear he would find me after
him in a jiffy. 1t wouldn't take me
long to hustle him out, assure you"
This latest acquisition to Chicago's
force of peace guardians has thrown
an air Of mystery about herself. 1t is
said she is the daughter OF well known
parents, that she is a Chicago girl and
has done some private investigating at
times, although she never met a real,
sure enough habitual lawbreaker In
her life.

A Mantle With q History.

In the windows of a silk and lace
shop at The Hague there was dis
played few weeks ago a mantle with
y history. OF finest lace. all in one
piece, It was made for the coronation
OF the Empress Eugene, and seven
Aeedlewomen worked several years
upon it. An eminent French artist
made the design for the lace, and the
sketch was destroyed as soon as the
pattern was worked. 1t cost something
like $4,000. But the event for which
1t was made never took place, and the
empress wore 1t only Once-at the
opening of the Suez canal in 1869. For
twenty-eight years 1t reposed in a
pawnshop in Athens. How 1t got there
no one seems to know.
