CATARRH GERMS
Move Out When Hyomei

No stomach dosing. HYOMEI (pro-
nounce it High-o-me) is made from
the highest grade of eucalyptus TAX
en- from the eucalyptus forests of in
land Australia, and combined with
the excellent antiseptics employed in
the Historian system.
In inland Australia the atmosphere
is SO impregnated with balsam
thrown out by the eucalyptus trees
that germs cannot live, and in conse-
quence catarrh and consumption are
unknown.
Breathe HYOMEI and get the very
same, pleasant, healing germ-killing
air as you would get in the eucalyp-
tus forests and kill the germs
HYOMEI is sold by Wilkinson &
Co., and druggists everywhere, at 81

An outfit consists of bottle OF
HYOMEI, hard rubber pocket inhal
er and simple instructions Tor use
The inhaler will last lifetime, but
bear in mind if you need another bot

ly modified. Skirts are not as narrow
as those on the Paris suits; coats are
perhaps trifle longer on the hip, and
trimmings are more subdued, blend
ing with the general lines of the suit
rather, than marking striking innov-
ations. Embroidered motifs are much
used on these models, also braid trim
mings, frogs and fancy buttons. Many
of the suits show the silk braid edge
binding, which Is very cd fashion
revived and which may be noted on
some of the handsomest mohair suits.
White lingerie dresses have deep
hemstitched borders of black chiffon,
or the yoke and lower part of the
sleeves of this material and shade.
Then there are the undertakings OF
black chiffon, that is, a slip worn UNI
der the lingerie dress and over its
white satin foundation. On the other
hand, frequently the dress and the
UNDERLYING were black and the under
yelling white.
Byron and Dutch collars both con-
tinue in favor. Jabots are especially
popular in the lacy varieties. me
new collars are often of changeable
silk edged with Persian satin, or OF
plain satin trimmed with pleated
quilting of PERSIAN silk.
Some Of the dainty lingerie gowns
are made with band Of wide lace in
sertion just below the knees. A fold
of wide ribbon is fastened to the prln-
cess slip so as to form background
to the insertion. A chou or loops and
ends of the ribbon are fastened to
the gown, inserted little to one side
! of the front.
Head scarfs are of black or white
/ lightweight satin or of Persian chiffon

cashmere designs and colors.
The latest mesh in Essling is a light
hexagon, with heavy diagonal lines
embroidered over it, thus forming
diamond pattern.

MERCHANT HAS PROPER IDEA

The summer visitor in small sea
port town was amazed and amused at
the assortment of merchandise dis
played in the little store at the head
of the wharf.
The showcase was devoted to an as
sortment of candy at one end and a
lot of cigars and tobacco at the other
end, and no barrier between Next to
the showcase stood a motor engine
valued at several hundred dollars.

Handed Down From the Past.

The fear of the dark has lasted long
after the reason for that fear has
gone. Just as the dogs habit of turn
ing round and round before he lies
down to sleep has lasted since the
time when his ancestors, the wild
wolf-dogs, used to turn round and
round in the deep drifted leaves of
the forest to make warm, sheltered
beds to sleep in. The habit has lasted
long after the need for 1t Is over, and
on the smooth hearth the dog still
turns round and round.

The widening of the trail from
the Bullion mine to Borax, is
now completed for a distance of
a mile and a half. there being
two miles yet to be finished.
This work was started some time

purpose of giving the Bullion
mine transportation facilities.
There is considerable ore blocked
out and on the dump, ready for
shipment as soon as the road
has been completed to the Mis-.

The face of the lower tunnel
is heavily interspersed with chal.
coprites, which gave returns by
assay of % per cent in copper
and 81 in gold. The upper work.
ings have been developed to a
considerable extent and ore
taken from the upper tunnel has
assayed as high as 80 per cent in
copper with some gold.
The claims of the company adj
join the property of the Spring
field and Park companies on
Stevens peak and are connected
by a good trail with the Missoula
branch of the Northern Pacific
railroad. This trail can easily
be widened into a wagon road
with little expense. 1t is likely
that work will be started in the
near future.

A new galena district is loom

four miles northwest from the
Jack Waite on Tributary creek.

southern border of the district.

NOUS ledge crosses the Bitter
Root divide at the head Of Eagle
creek, which crops out boldly.
and can be traced for more than
a mile.
Galena is knocked off the crop
pings all along the exposure.
Pieces as large as a hens egg
have been found associated with
a quartz gangue. The ore is
clear. cube galena. The loca-
tions are in part on the Montana
side. but the ledge will have to
be explored from the Eagle
creek slope.
Practically all the tunneling
will be on this side of the range.
Tinker & Bartlett erected a
cabin on the summit last year.
and did about five months work
on their claims, remaining un.
til the weather drove them out.
The elevation there is nearly
5000 feet above sea level.
A good trail has been made
from the Samson group to the
summit where the cabin stands.
Fortunately a fine spring
gushes ice cold water below the
divide where the cabin stands,
and feeds Eagle creek.
