OF the club a resolution was unanimously
passed complimentary of the neat and at
~tractive appearance OF the officers who
since the beginning Of the Eagles conven-
ton have been so capably handling the

present arrangement Will be made perma-

you may say I am not a Mormon, nor

Omaha, wife Of Rev, James Huff, recently
appointed by Governor Shallenberger chap
lain Of the Nebraska state penitentiary.
A reporter for The Bee asked Mrs. Huff
in the absence Of her husband about his
attitude with respect to the resolutions
passed by the West Nebraska Methodist
conference at Kearney condemning the
governor for his appointment of a Nor
mon elder" to the place before held by a
Methodist, the Rev p. c. Johnson.
My husband" said Mrs. Huff, lis a
pastor Of q congregation Of the Reorganized
Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints
and breaches now every Sunday in Omaha
at a church at 1918 North Twenty-first
street, / am a member of the same faith
as he, though l was brought up a Metho-

cannot be called Mormon. Our faith is not
the same as that accepted as
Mormonism. We have no belief in poly
gamy. 1t is ridiculous to make such a
charge"

A ONE NIGHT CONVERT.
Incident In the Temperance carssr Of
Father Mathew.

Incident In the Temperance Career Of
Father Mathew.
In 1S43, when Father Mathew was
crusadlng for total abstinence In Lon
don, he created no small amusement
for a large party at the hospltable
mansion Of an Irish nobleman by bis
attempts, partly playful, but also part
ly serious, to make a convert q Lord
Brougham, who resisted good humor
edIy, but rcsolutely, the efforts Of bis
jealous ncighbor. The incident Is re-
lated by Katharine lyman IN her biog
raphy Of Father Mathew.
II drink very little wine" said
Brougham, "only half glass at lunch.
con and two half glasses at dinner.
And, though my medical adviser told
me l should increase the quantity, !
refused to do So"
HE was wrong, my lord, for ad-
vising you to increase the quantity, and
you were wrong in taking the small
quantity you do" said Father Mathew,
''but have my hopes Of you"
And so, after a pleasant resistance
on the part of the learned lord, Father
Mathew invested his lordship with the
silver medal and ribbon, the insignia
and colllr of the "new order OF the
Bath"
"Then will keep IT, said Brougham,
"and take It to the house, where J
shall be sure to meet old Lord - the
worse for liquor, and will put 1t on
him"
The announcement Of this intention
was received with much laughter, for
the noble lord referred to was notori-
GUS for his potations.
Lord Brougham was as good as his
word for on meeting the veteran peer
he said. lord ---, / have a present
from Father Mathew for you" and
passed the ribbon rapidly over his
neck.
"Then tell you what It Is. Brough'
am. / will keep sober for this nigh"
was the peers unexpected response.
And he kept this vow, to the amaze.

cATARRH CURED
No Cure, No Pay, Is a Most Generous
Offer.

To get an antiseptic strong enough
to kill catarrh germs, and not destroy
the tissues Of the membrane at the
same time, has been a problem which
was never solved until the discovery
OF Hyomei (pronouncer High-o-me).
Hyomei is prepared from eucalyp.
tus, the most powerful yet healing
antiseptic known. Breathe it through
the inhaler over the inaamed and
germ-ridden membrane four or FIVE
times a day, and in few days the
germs will disappear.
The inhamed condition will go,
too, and the snufling, hawking and
offensive breath, and the discharge 0!
mucous and crusts in the nose will
cease
Then why should any catarrh suf'
ferer hesitate, when T. F. Laurin has
such faith in Hyomei that he offers
to return your money II after fair
trial Hyomei does not cure catarrh
A complete Hyomei outfit, includ-
ing the inhaler, costs $l00, and extra
bottles, If afterwards needed, cost but
50 cents. Hyomei also cures asthma
