Have You Heard of Hyomei for Ca
 tarrh, Asthma and Hay Fever
 If you wheeze or sneeze, hawk or spit. snuf1e or blow, something is the matter with the membrane of your respiratory tract, and you need Hyo- mel.
 And you need Hyomei because it will cure you of any catarrhal or in- fiammatory condition that exists.
 It isn't a stomach medicine, or spray. or douohe, but very pleasant, healing, antiseptic balsam. from the eucalyptus forests of Australia. You breathe this balsamic air through 8 small, hard rubber inhaler. and it reaches every nook, corner and crevice of the membrane, and promptly kills the oatarrh germs.
 Anders Jacobsen will sell you a complete Hyomei (pronounced High o.me) outfit for $1 %, on the money back plan.
 "The use of Hyomei cured MT Cutler of oatarrh in 1904 He has strongly endorsed the use of Hyomei in many instances, and we are glad to go on record regarding this marvel ous catarrh cure. and endorse it. ''- Mrs. A. Cutler, POI Post Ave-, Battle Greek, Mich

The MiI1erS.

"If you want to hear some guessing wide of the mark ask some one what he would think might be the third most common name in New York city," says the New York Sun. "The probability is the correct answer will never be made unless some one has happened to alight on some such bit of information The fact is that, ac- cording to the best available authori- ties the name Miller ranks third, Smith holding first place and Brown second. It seems almost incredible, but as a matter of fact the name Mill Ter stands well to the head of the list of names most frequently met with in the four largest cities in the coun- try. It stands second in Philadelphia, third in New York city and fourth in Chicago, while the name Jones is way down in the list, holding the eleventh place in New York city and the thir- teenth in Boston, with such names as Clark, Williams, White and other names never considered common pre- ceding it."

Teachino the Royal Salute.

Crossing the deck of the Kaiser Will helm II. royal yacht with a large mug of beer in his hand, one of the sailors was startled by the sudden appearance of his royal master. He made a most clumsy attempt to salute with his free hand, while his anxiety to prevent the beer spilling amused his majesty. Look here." said the latter, you didn't do that right. Let me show you how it ought to be done." Telling the man to fancy that he was the en- peror, who was to be saluted, the kali ser took the mug and retreated a few paces. Then, coming forward again, stopping opposite to the sailor, he held the mug to his lips, drained 1t, put 1t down on the deck and gave the salute with military precision. That's the way to do it." he remarked to the as- tonished seaman. "Now go down stairs and tell them to fill the mug up again and give you one for yourself. Say 1t was who drank it."

DANGER IN DELAY.

Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous
 for Stafford Springs People to Neg
 lect.
 The great danger of kidney troubles is that they get firm hold before the sufferer recognizes them. Health Is gradually undermined. Backache, headache, nervousness, lameness. sore. ness, lumbago, urinary troubles, dropsy, diabetes and BriRht's disease follow in merciless succession Don't neglect your kidneys. Cure the kid neys with the certain and safe remedy, Doan's Kidney Pills. which has cured people right here in Stafford Springs.
 Mrs. Michael Corcoran, living on Center street, Stafford Springs, Conn [, says: "My nephew had kidney disease for a number of years, and al- though he tried many different kinds of medicines he obtained no relief. He complained a great deal of a dull. dragging pain in the small of his back, and it was impossible for him to do any heavy lifting on this &C., count. The action of the kidney secretions was also very irregular, and when we saw Doan g Kidney Pills advertised at Eaton's drug store we procured a box. My nephew had taken but few doses of this prepara- tion when he said he felt much better. The pains grew less severe and the kidney action became normal. Doan's Kidney Pills did him more good than any mt dicine he ever took. "

Mo+ior of Planets and Satellites

All the planets travel the same way round. This is true not only of the eight primary planets, but of the as
 teroids. Again all the secondary plan cts or satellites travel the same way round, this direction of revolution be- ing the same as that in which the plan cts revolve around the sun, except the satellites of Uranus. which, however. can hardly be said to have any direc- ton of motion with reference to the general level in which the planetary system circuits, for they travel in planes nearly square to that level. Lastly. as respects direction of motion, all the planets whose rotation has been observed, including our earth and moon and the sun also, rotate on their axes in the same direction. It must be un- derstood that this direction Is one and the same for all these motions-the rev olutions of the planets around the sun, of the satellites around the planets and of the planets on their axes. 1t seems natural to infer that the uniformity is the result of some general condition af- fecting the whole scheme from the be- ginning.-Richard A.

Brain and Muscle.

According to Miss Loane, the author of From Their Point of View" more men are tramps and more women are miserable housewives if married or underpaid slaves if single because they cannot or will not use their brain power than because they are too lazy for hard bodily labor. The amount of purely unintellectual drudgery dimin- ishes every year and the demand for intelligent workers increases.
 The author had one woman patient, a worker among London poor, chron- ic sufferer, who managed to keep house and children in far more perfect order than vigorous neighbors always scrub ping and securing. She was once asked how she contrived to do this. and she replied:

On the other side of the gorge the road ran north to Bogota, south to La Paz. Once across, if the fugitives could destroy the bridge they would be safe.
 Caballero shouted triumphantly and spurred his jaded horse forward. Loch- inyar hastened across the span with Esmerelda. Ere they reached the mid dIe the dictator had dismounted and set foot upon the swaying structure.
 Lochinvar looked back and took in the situation He drew his machete. One quick slash, and the left cable sprang asunder. The bridge hung ouivering. Heedless of the cry of hor- TOT behind, he dropped his knife, gath cred the fainting Esmerelda in his arms and staggered across to safety.
 The dictator was so far advanced that it was as safe for him to keep on ns to return. Just as the last strands Darted he gained the solid rock not fifty feet behind the fugitives who were hurrying toward La Paz. With cry of triumph he started In pursuit.
 A shout from the other side made him halt. He looked across the gorge. There stoosl the D'Estes family in line, eight Mausers swung carelessly in their left hands. eight mOnitory right fore fingers pointing toward Bogota. The dictator was on the wrong side of the river For hundred miles either way there was no other bridge. It would be days before he could get back to the capital of Chilombia. Meanwhile the new revolution would have made his presence unnecessary.
 Caballero took a step toward La Paz. Seven Mausers went up to seven right shoulders. all but little brother Cristo- fero's. who was left handed. His went up to his left Eight forefngers touch ed eight triggers,
 Caballero stopped. He was too good mark against the rock. He faced about and maledicted the entire male branch of the house of D'Estes, living and dead, born and unborn.

 The D'Estes family camped in the road that night to make sure he would not try to repass in the darkness. Then they returned to Chilombia and engi- neered the revolution that put them in control of the state and fulfilled the parents most ambitious dreams for their seven sons.

CORN FOR FATTENlNG SWINE
Cheapest Method of Producing Pound
Of Pork Is by the Corn and Clio.
yer Route.

For long time we have believed
that the cheapest method of produce
ing pound of pork is by the corn
and clover method, says writer in
Drovers' Journal Last year we kept
carload of hogs in addition to 10
brood sows with their pigs on 10 acres
of alsike and then several loads OF
hay were taken from the field. As
soon as the corn was ready we fed
several armfuls of green corn, to-
gether with few basketfuls of ears.
Then we fenced off eight acres of
corn with a30-inch woven wire fencing
and turned in the entire lot. The
sows and a few of the spring pigs
were shipped with the rest. The corn
brought $33 an acre, costing us moth
ing for husking, cutting or hauling 70
market.
We were so pleased with last years
results that this spring we picked up
enough pigs with our own to make
IT'S. On April 10, when we turned them
on the Is acres of clover which we
fenced off, they averaged 81 pounds.
Now they have been on the clover
close to three months and are getting
in excellent condition. We have not
had the time to weigh them, but are
sure they have made excellent gains.
Each day we feed them three sacks
of corn (about $50 pounds). This
seems to balance up the grass ration
| and to keep them in excellent shape.
A hog is not SO much of forage ami
alone. He must have a supplementary
ration and it seems that corn is best.
AS soon as the ears are ready we
shall begin to feed green corn. With
the last cultivation we sowed rape in
great deal of our corn. BY the time
| make rank growth. Then we will
turn the whole bunch in on a piece
| of new ground on which we have an
espec ally good outlook for corn
| crop. We expect the rape together
with heavy crop to make a vast
| amount of feed
| At present our main object is to
keep them healthy and growing. We
do not care so much for fat as for
| large frames. They can put the fat on
if they have the place for it when we
turn them in the corn. Clean water
! is quite necessary. We try to keep
down the wallowho About the
troughs this is quite a task, although
a few loads of ordinary sawdust
placed in the right place will not only
prevent the wallowing but will fill up
| the holes
