others. There are many interesting
things in the history to read about be-
sides all the good it will do us.
There are many other books would
like to have too, but I think that one
would do me the most good. I have
five or six volumes of the United States
history of my own and enjoy reading
them and looking at the pictures. If
one cannot travel much and has his
tory they can learn a great many
things about travelling.
History is one OF the most important
studies in school and about the incest.
When you are reading history it is just
like reading a story book, only you are
learning more. And in that way I
think that the United States history
would be the best book I could choose.

My Dear Aunt Laurie:
THOUGHT I would write some
thing upon this subject. The sub
u ject being ''The Best Book for Me.
What I Would Choose if 1 Could Only
Have One.'
Well Aunt Laurie, have so many
choice books that it would be hard for
me to choose one, but l think either
the life of Lincoln or the life of
Ramona in California would be best
for me, but above all would be the BIZ
Bile. But Of course the Bible is the
best book, and there is no story half
as good as the life of Jesus. 1 think
lots of other people will agree with me
also. All the boys and girls of the
United States ought to read the Bible;
also the children and people of other
lands.
Reading is a great thing, and people
like to read better when they have
good boks.
I think next the best books for me
are my school books, because in our
histories we learn what the people in
the olden days did, and in our gram
mars we learn to use correct English
and we learn how to figure different
things in out arithmeticS.
Well, 1 guess 1 will close, with love
and best wishes to you and The Herald

WHAT IS HYOMEI?
You Have Heard About the Catarrfl
Cure Hays G. Field Guarantee.

| Hyomei is a wonderful, an:iseptic,
SO powerful that it promptly destroyes
germ life, yet its action or the rlu-
cous membrane is extremely soothing
and healing. 1t relieves catarrh in
five minutes; it cures in few weeks
or money back.
1t is made chiefly of eucalyptus and
eucalyptol taken from the eucalyptus
forests of inland Australia. The medi-
is an absolute certain earm-dsstroy-
er and with the active principles of
eucalyptus as a base Hyomei il; made
more efficient, pleasant and quick
acting by the addition of Thynoi, an
lantiseptic and disinfectant largely
employed in the Historian System.
Guaiacol and other important medici
nal agents are also included in the
Hyomei formula, which, without doubt
is the greatest destroyer Of catarrh
germs the world has ever known.
Hyomei is a powerful penetrating
antiseptic that is pleasant to use. T.
does not contain a particle of cocaine,
opium or any habit-forming or injuri-
Gus drug.
No dosing the stomach when you
use Hyomei. Just breathe it in
through the small inhaler that comes
with each outfit. Sold by leading
druggists everywhere and in Hatties-
burg by Hays & Field. $l.00 for COM

it contains such liberal supply of

Chicago, Aug. 19.-Ten persons were
injured seriously and 20 others had

The bridge was closed on Its west
approach for construction work on the

cident occurred Just after street car
had run part way across the bridge and
80 passengers had alighted to walk
over the dangerous portion to get an
other car. The passengers were hurry
ing in a huddled group when there was
a loud rumbllng and crash and the
footway sank beneath them carrying
many to the pits below.
Many escaped by clinging to side
timbers. These, with the car crews,
began the work Of rescue and most OF
the injured were taken out before the
police ambulances came. Several were
found with legs and arms broken and
internal injuries Trafic on three rail-
roads was delayed for an hour by the
accident.
