COSTS BUT A TRIFLE
TO CURE CATARRH

How many readers Of the Journal
know that in Inland Australia where
the mightiest Of eucalyptus trees grow
in abundance, that there is no con-
sumption, catarrh or diseases Of the
respiratory tract.
The refreshing balsam thrown out by
these trees fills the air and is breathed
into the lungs by the inhabitants and
all germ life is destroyed.
If you have catarrh you cannot go
to Inland Australia except at great ex-
pense, but you can breathe right it
your own home the same pleasant,
soothing, healing, germ killing air as
you would breathe If you were living
in the eucalyptus district Of Australia.
Just breathe HYOMEI; it is made
from Australia eucalyptus and scien-
tifically combined with thymol and
other antiseptics employed in the Lis
terrain system.
Pour a few droys Of HYOMEI in the
inhaler and breathe it, and as 1t passes
over the catarrh infected membrane
1t kills the germs and heals the raw,
inflamed surface.
HYOMEI is guaranteed to cure ca
tarrh, coughs, colds, Group and sore
throat or money back. Complete outfit
including inhaler $1.00. Extra bottles
Of HYOMEI cost so cents. Sold by
druggists everywhere and by Hannah
Bros.

NEMERO'S
HERPTcIDE

Saves Worry, Saves Money, Saves the
Hair.
If you want to free your head of
dandruff and stop falling hair, you
must sooner or later resort to New
bros Herpicide.
BY using Herpcide first you save
yourself worry, which is desirable, you
save money, which is a consideration,
and you save your hair, which is the
most important of all.
Why not profit by the experience of
Mrs. S. A. Lee, of 10 South 4th St,
Richmond, Va, who writes:
-Four years residence in India
ruined my hair until it was but two
inches long and very thin. I tried
everything in Europe and America
without benefit until 1 was induced to
use Herpicide. My hair is now long,
soft and silky and natural color, while
before it was quite gray. Ny friends
never tire of admiring my hair"
Mrs. Lees story is a typical history
Of hair troubles. After everything else
fails Newbro's Herpicide brings re-
lief. 1t would be just as effective if
used first.
Newbro's Herpicide kills the dam
drun germ and prevents falling hair.
1t stops itching of the scalp almost
instantly. No matter what the claims
of others, Herpicide is the only gem
uine original dandruff germ DESTROYER,
One dollar size bottles guaranteed.
Sold by all druggists. Applications
at good barber shops.
Send 10c for sample bottle to The
Herpicide Co., Dept. r., Detroit, Mich

WHAT IS VINOL?
1t Represents Twenty Years Work
of Two Eminent Chemists.

After twenty years of study two
eminent French chemists discovered a
method by which the alkaloids or
medical elements Of the Gods liver
might be separated from the useless
oil or grease, retaining all the good
of cod liver oil and dispensing with
the bad, as the oil has no medicinal
value. These medical elements blend
ed with tonic iron and a mild medi-
cine wine-make Vinol.
Vinol is not a secret medicine, as
its ingredients are printed on every
bottle, and in all cases where the
healing, strengthening influence of cod
liver oil is needed, Vinol will give
better results, for it contains all the
curative medicinal properties of cod
liver oil, but without the OIL and it
is easily asimilated and acceptable
to the weakest stomach.
For all rundown, weakened condi-
tions. and to cure chronic coughs, colds
and bronchial troubles, Vinol is unex-
celled. We sell it always with the I'M
Outstanding that If it does not do all
we claim for 1t, we will refund the
money paid US for 1t. Whites Phar-

Senator Cullom declares he is not
worried by the Illinois protest meet
ings. His friends recall that in the
notorious Quay case, Mr.. Cullom ex-
cited angry protests from the people
of Illinois by voting for Quay. They
say the resentment was much more
spontaneous and widespread then
and the fact that the people forgot
and forgave Mr.. Cullom and con-
tinued him in Office, leads his friends
to believe that the Lorimer case will
quickly blow over. If Mr.. CVllom s
health permits he will be a candidate
for reelection and he will go before
the people in the primaries with an
appeal for vindication. That ought
to work alright, especially if he can
tell poor boy tale and get help from

TALESMEN IN FEAR
OF THE CRM0RRA
Obstacle to Trial of MurderOus Ital-
ians May Delay Court Pro-
ceedings.

Viterbo, Italy. March 13.-The
trial of Enrico Alfano and the 50
other members of the Neapolitan
Camorra for murder. formal pro-
ceedings in which began Saturday,
is confronted with serious obstacles
and is likely, if present conditions
continue, to be considerably de-
layed.
A provisory jury was selected in
part Saturday by the president of
the court in order officially to be-
gin the case, but difficulties were
at once encountered with the tales
men, many of whom either offered
pretexts for not serving in the case
or betook themselves to another dis
trict, where the authorities have not
as yet been able to lay hands on
them.
President Blanchi endeavored by
threats of severe punishment to in
duce others to fulfill their civic OBJ
legations, but in vain.
The authorities made strenuous eff
forts to obtain men qualified and
willing to sit in the jury box, but
fear of the Camorra and threats that
have been circulated during the last
month offer almost insurmountable
barriers to the selection of the u
regular jurymen and the IL substi-
tutes to sit in judgment on the Ca
morrists.

FUNERAL EFFIGIES.
A Queer Custom That Was Followed
In Byaone Days.

A Queer Custom That Was Followed
In 6yaone Days.
At the funerals of great personages,
the old chronicles tell us, his lively
efhgy," dressed to initiate life, was
carried in a chariot before the corpse
to the grave, then there set up under
q "hearse'' or a temporary monument
in the church. Such efigies were Of
ten left in a glass case standing over
the vault where the interment had
taken place. Some statues were of
wood, with heads of plaster, but the
more modern ones were of wax.
In the olden days laudatory poems
or epitaphs were affixed with pins or
wax TO these 'hearses'' and We're even
thrown into graves on the collins in
similar manner to our modern custom
of flowers at q burial.
When Shelton, poet laureate to Hen
ry VIII, "took sanctuary at Westmin-
ster to escape the displeasures of the
then all powerful Cardinal Wolsey it
IS said that he subsisted on what he
earned by writing epitaphs for use at
funerals in the abbey.
Ben Jonson's well known epitaph to
the Countess of Pembroke
Underneath this sable hearse
Lies the subject of all verse,
SIdney's sister, etc
was evidently thus attached to her
"hearse "-Westminster Gazette.
