(Osseo, Wis, Recorder)
a bashful young mar in town was
invited out to dinner. He was very
much agitated. He sat opposite a
mirror and discovered that he had
forgotten to comb his hair. Then he
dropped his fork on the floor and as
he stopped to pick 1t up he upset his
coffee. Matters went from bad to
worse, until finally in despair the
young MAJ quit eating and put his
hands under the table. The loose
end of the tablecloGh was lying in
his hap. When he touched it he
turned pale, He thought it was his
shirt and that he had forgotten to
put the garment An his trousers. He
hurriedly stuffed in the supposed
shirt inside his trousers. Afterward,
when the family arose from the ia
bic there was a crash. The dishes
lay In a broken mass on the floor.
The young man pulled three feet of
tablecloth out OF his pants and flew
TO the woods.

HERES A BOY IN NEED.
Harvey Powell, X. q. Student, Sick and
PenniIess With Mother.

Lawrence Kan. Oct. 13.-At
the point of death with typhoid
fever at the University hospital is Har-
vey Powell of Leroy, Kansas, absolute
ly penniless, while at his bedside is
his mother, who not only is also with
out funds, but who has no where to
turn to get a cent of money. Subscrip-
ton papers have been started to raise
money to help the boy and all those
whose hearts this appeal must touch,
who will and can give, can send their
offering to the K. U. Y. NJ. c. A.
When school opened this fall at K.
U. there arrived a youth by the name
of Harvey Powell from Leroy, Kansas.
In his pocket was $25, all the money
on earth that he possessed, but in his
soul was the determination to secure
a college education
His father is a teamster in Leroy
and the story of daily existence in the
Powell family is but another of those
sordid strifes to make the everlasting
two ends meet.
Powell worked hard, he had to, for
there was no father to send him checks
at the first of each month. Last week
he became i'll, and on Saturday he was
taken to University hospital, where it
was found he was in the advanced
stages of typhoid fever. The pity of it
all was that Powell was too poor even
to Join the K. U. Hospital association
which gives every student the FEELING
that he will be cared for when he is i'll.
The attending physicians, seeing that
the boys condition was serious, sent
for his mother who is with him now.
The family made the last final strug-
gle to get the money together for the
mother to come to her boy, and now in
Lawrence are the two, absolutely pow
erty stricken. If the balance should
turn and the boy might recover, his
hospital bills will be heavy and they
must be met. If death should claim
him as is very possible, then at least
his fellow beings owe him the debt to
see that his body is sent home and
given a proper burial. Subscription pa
pers have been opened and the money
may be sent to the K. U. Y. NJ. G. A.
If the appeal reaches your heart what
ever YOU can give will help, for the
case is one of the most pitiful ever
known in Lawrence.

AGED WOMAN TURNED OUT.
Lebo Lady, 63 Years Old, Had Given
Away $4,000.

Burlington, Kan, Oct. 13.-Mrs.
Charlotte Dunn has brought suit in the
district court of Coffey county against
Mary Petty and the Lebo State bank.
All of the parties live in Lebo. Suit
is brought to compel Mrs. Petty to turn
over to Mrs. Dunn a note and mort
gage for $500 which Mrs. Dunn turn
ed over to her some time ago under a
contract made between them. Under
this contract Mrs. Dunn, who is now
So years old, and feeble, and alone in
the world, and homeless, was to turn
over the note and mortgage for $500
to Mrs. Petty, who agreed to keep her
at her home in peace and comfort for
the remainder of her life and pay her
$50 cash a year for clothes, ETC., and
to pay all doctor bills, etc. The petit
ton alleges that almost Immediately
after the note and mortgages were
turned over the defendants demeanor
changed and she neglected Mrs. Dunn,
refused to pay her the $50 or any part
of it and made life miserable for her,
finally ordering her to leave the prem
ises. A temporary restraining order
was issued to prevent the disposal of
the note before the settlement of this
case. The note is supposed to be in
banks care.

Good Way to Use

Besides breathing through the in
haler a few times a day many catarrh
sufferers write that they find inhaling
HYOMEI pronounce it High-o-meD
from a bowl of steaming water each
night before retiring a great aid in cur
ing stubborn cases.
Try it; it's very simple; gives quick
relief and makes you breathe easier.
Fill bowl half full of boiling water;
HYOMEI, cover head and bowl with
towel, and breathe through nose
and mouth the pleasant, medicated,
antiseptic and healing vapor that
arises.
This method relieves the stuffin ess
at once, and makes your head feel fine.
You can get bottle of HYOMEI at
druggists everywhere for only SO cents
Ask for extra bottle HYOMEI inhalent
But bear in mind that a HYOMEI
outfit which includes inhaler and bot
tie of HYOMEI costs $1.00.
But, as stated before, if you already
own an inhaler, a bottle of HYOMEI
costs but so cents.
HYOMEI is guaranteed to cure ca
tarrh, sore throat, coughs, colds, asth-

on that generous basis

good men who are narrow, as well as
some men who are narrow without be-
ing good, and one of these good narrow
men, a Protestant clergyman, wrote
me letter of protest about my receiv-
ing Cardinal SatoIli at the White
House. I wrote him back, saying that
had received the cardinal just as,
for instance, I had received bodies of
German LutheranS and Welsh Meth
odistS and as I am expected to receive
the archbishop of Canterbury, and
that I would hold myself to be poor
representative of the American people,
an unworthy president of the United
States if I failed to treat with good
will and friendliness all good men, no
matter what their religious faith may
be; and then added that could best
explain my position by saying that 1
believed our country would last a very
long time, and that if it did, there
would be many presidents. and some of
these would be Catholics and some
Protestants, and that I, a Protestant,
wished to act toward my Catholic fell
low citizens exactly as hoped that a
Protestant fellow citizens. I think
that expressed my views about as
clearly as I can put Them
Theodore Roosevelt is as true to the
right as the needle is to the pole said
former Congressman Bourke Cochran,
who for years was a leading Democrat
ic member of the house, in his speech.
HE himself has said that he is not a
great man." Mr.. Cochran said, land
not a wise man. He need be neither
for the American people believe he is
"a good man."
Mr.. Cochran had been referring to
the Ten Commandments He'd tell
you you must not covet your neighbor' s
goods, and he'd knock down any man
who suggested it, he continued. Every
cheer that greets him is an evidence of
the passion of the devotion of the
American people to justice. That pop
ularity of his proves that the love OF
Justice is implanted in every American
heart
Mr.. Little said that down in Wash
ington they had fired ok cannon and
fired everything except Ballinger."
Col. Roosevelt joined in the laughter
and clapped his hands.

ENOUGH FOR 5000 YEARS.
Governor of Alaska Makes Estimate of
the Coal Fields.

Juneau, Oct. 13.-Governor Walter E
Clark, who has returned from a 20 day
tour of Alaska said that in his annual
report to the president, he would make
a recommendation concerning the OPP
ening of the great coal fields of the ter
ritory. It is understood he favors leas-
ing the land but he declined to outline
his plan further than to say that it pro-
vided for protection of the people
against the coal falling into the hands
of monopolies He said:
Alaska is entirely capable of support
ing a large permanent population, but
more liberal treatment by the federal
government is necessary to development
of the country. The Alaska coal at the
present rate of consumption on the Pa
cific coast, would last the coast 5000
years or more. The coal that Alsaka is
now burning is imported largely from
foreign countries and cost SIS a ton.
A few miles away is much better coal
locked in the ground
