 Here is very simple yet wholly sincere statement of 8 Michigan woman, who was cured by using Hyomei- no cure no pay remedy for catarrh, asthma, hay fever, croup. coughs and colds.
 "A bad case of catarrh was cured for me by the use of Hyomei. The trouble affected my head, nose and eyes, and was very annoying and dis agreeable. and the cure. from the use of Hyomei, was very gratifying. Hyomei has from me a strong recon, mend and endorsement. ''-Mrs. B. Karberg. 213 Kingsley St., Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. 16, 1908
 Thousands of just such letters arc ill existence, and thousands more would be but for the desire to avoid publicity.

Told Stanley All About It.

During Stanley's last stay in London he was present one evening at very swell affair, and the attention paid to him was so annoying that he was de- lighted when he had an opportunity of slipping away unnoticed. He found a quiet corner in the smoking room and was enjoying cigar when spruce young fellow, who, it turned out, was lieutenant in the navy, came up.
 To Stanley's surprise, the lieutenant began to tell him all about Africa, and 1t soon became evident that he did not know he was talking to the great ex- plorer.
 Other listeners strolled in, and pretty soon there was quite a crowd listening to the young man telling the most as- tonishing things about the dark cont1- nent, the Kongo, the shire district, the native races, and so on.
 At first Stanley endeavored to cor rect his mistakes, but the lieutenant knew better, and so he permitted him to talk on. Finally this extraordinary and Imaginable scene was brought to a conclusion by one of the guests saying:
 "But, Mir. Stanley, you told us'-
 "Stanleyw cried the lieutenant. ''Is this Stanley, the African explorer?"
 Certainly" was the reply. The lieu tenant gave one look around, tried to speak, flushed scarlet and then dashed out of the room, followed by roar of laughter, in which even Stanley joined

WILMINGTON.

We have received marked copy of the May 21st issue of the Otsego County Herald. printed at Gaylord, Michigan, from which we clip. Rev. Mir. Wolfe and Mrs. Wolfe have the best wishes of everyone here for suc- cess in their new home and church : "At a business meeting last night the Baptist church officially called to it's pastorate Rev. Ohas. W. Wolfe. who has supplied the pulpit for the past two Sundays Mir. Wolfe is a graduate of Bucknell University, Lewisburg, Penn, and of Newton Theological Institute, Newton Center, Mass. During his course of study he served several small churches in Massachusetts, one of them not far from the famous Plymouth Rock, and several months before graduation was chosen pastor of the Willington church, Connecticut. where he served nearly five years. Though brought up in Pennsylvania, Mir. Wolfe was born in Michigan and lived in this state until five years of age. He says he has always had his eye on the middle west, and turned this way last fall to pursue 8 post graduate ceur @ m the University of Chicago. He specialized in social and educational subjects, and preached in 8 number of we'll known churches in the vicinity of Chicago during the past school year He also supplied churches in Wilkesbarre and PitteburR, Penn- sylvania, while on the way. His family consists of a wife and two children. Mrs Wolfe has also at tended college and theological school. and while MT. Wolfe refuses to en- gage her as assistant pastor, we be- lieve she is in heartiest sympathy with the work and helpmeet indeed. Along with MT. Wolfe we are con- vinced that there is large field of service for the Gaylord church, and that it's interests are in perfect harm ony with every good work in the town. We bespeak for the church and it's new pastor, should he accept tl e charge, the heartiest cooperation of all members and friends. The household effects of MT. Wolfe that have been stored at Maple Corner will be carted to the railroad station by O. H. Ryder for shipment to Michigan.

 The above is only one of the thou sands of grateful letters which are constantly being received by the Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn. Mass, which prove beyond doubtful Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, made from roots and herbs, actually does cure these obstinate dis eases of women after all other means have failed, and that every such suf- ering woman owes it to herself to at least give Lydia B.

 The appalling death rate from kid. ney disease is due in most cases to the fact that the little kidney troubles are usually neglected until they be. come serious. The slight symptoms give place to chronic disorders and the sufferer goes gradually into the grasp of diabetes, dropsy, Bright'e disease, gravel or some other serious form of kidney complaint.
 If you suffer from backache, head aches. dizzy spells; if the kidney secretions are irregular of passage and unnatural in appearance. do not de- lay. Help the kidneys at onoe.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are especially for kidney disorders-they cure where others fail. Over one hundred thous. and people have recommended them. Here's case at home:
 Napoleon Billodeau, living on Main street, Stafford Springs, Conn.,, says I suffered from dull backaches for a long time, which caused me a great deal of distress. especially at night; i; when l arose in the morning I was tired and languid. Finally reading about Doan's Kidney Pills, procured a box from Eaton's drug store and found almost immediate relief. I can recommend this remedy without the least hesitancy to other sufferers. '

 There Is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pronounced 1t local disease and prescribed To- cal remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable Science has proven catarrh to be constitu- tional disease and therefore requires constitu- tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu- factured by Y. J. Cheney 6 Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to 8 teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case 1t fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.
