SPLITTING NUISANCE
Hawking and Splitting Is Caused by
Catarrh Germs

If the local authorities want to stop
the disgusting habit of splitting mucous
on the sidewalks, they had better in
struct the people as to the best method
of killing the catarrh germs and curing
catarrh.
You can easily tell by reading the
symptoms below whether you have
catarrh or not:
Offensive breath, frequent sneezing,
discharge from nose, stoppage OF the
nose, huskiness of the voice, tickling in
throat, droppings in throat, a cough,
pain i'm chest, loss of strength, variable
appetite, spasms of coughing, low spir
tied at times, raising of mucous, diff
Guilty in breathing, loss of vital force.
w. |. Benedict has a sensible remedy
money back if it falls for catarrh,
called Hyomei, which is vaporized
air so antiseptic that when il is breathed
over the inflamed and germ-infested
membrane, II kills all germ life and
cures catarrh.
The price, including hard rubber in
haler, is only $l.00, and money back if
it doesn't cure. Extra bottles, 80 cents
81 have tried almost every catarrh
cure on the market without benefit.
Have been using Hyomei for one week
and feel like a new man already. y

had a sudden spell of dizziness and
1 fell TO the floor. Soon after that my
back began To ache and the attacks
of dizziness were more frequent L
got so bad that / could not look up
ward without becoming faint and
felt miserable in every way. Reading
of Doan's Kidney Pills, l procured a
box at Connell Bros. drug store and
after using them short time, l was
free from every symptom OF kidney
trouble. Doan's Kidney Pills helped
me SO greatly that i am glad to re-
commend" Statement given De-
cember Z, 1906.
Mr.. Walser confirmed the above
on May q, 1909. He said: ~ have
no reason TO change my high opinion
of Doan's Kidney Pills, and still re-
commend them heartily. The relief
this remedy brought me has been last
ing and l have had no need of kid
ney remedy during the past three

PLEA FOR OUTDOOR GAMES.
Fairgrounds Wanted by Resident
of Columbia HEIGHT.

A playground for the children Of Column
bia Heights Is asked for In resolution
adopted by the Columbia Heights Citi-
zens' Association. copy Of which has
been sent to the Commissioners.
The resolutions declared that Outdoor
games should form an important part Of
the recreation of children. and ground for
such games should be set apart in differ
emit sections Of the city before expensive
structures shall cover all available tracts.
The systems Of establishing large and
convenient Fairgrounds is a policy that
cannot otherwise than rebound to the
benefit of all citizens. Among the bene-
fits there may be cited that the policy has
in view the health of the rising genera
ton. that it would materially relieve
crowded streets of playing children and
that 1t would have the tendency to cur
tail the summer exodus OF so many
families seeking playground freedom else
where for the children, such exodus al

PATENT OFFICE SURPLUS.
Fees Of Inventors More Than Met
the Current Expenses.

Inventors last year not only paid the
entire expenses of the patent office
81, SS7. 443-but provided as well a surplus
Of $sS. 476. which will go into thn United
States Treasury ultimately to assist In
paying the expenses Of less prosperous
branches Of the government.
The fact that his Office has surplus
was emphasized by Edward B. Moore,
commissioner of patents, in his annual re-
port, and is made the basis for recon-
mendations urging legislation by Congress
which will expedite the methods of issu-
ing patents According to the report there
were 400 more applications for patents
presented during the fiscal year ended
June 80 1909. than in the previous year.
There were $1,000 applications for patents
$4,000 were granted. About 10000 pat
entS are recorded in the Office, and about
half of them have been reclassified.
