ALDR|CH MAY TAKE
TRIP WITH MORGAN
Senator's Health May Force
Him to Quit Duties
for Time. y

1t was reported today that J. Pierpont
Morgan had asked Senator Aldrich to
go with him to Florida, where it is
hoped that the Senator's health will be
fully regained within the next few
weeks. possibly before Congress ad-
journs.
1t could not be learned whether or not
the Senator had accepted the invitation.
1t is a fact that for three weeks he
has suffered from a complication of
troubles, and while his condition has not
been serious, some of his friends have
been alarmed.
Secretary OF State Knox said today
that the visits to this city of. Mr.. Nor
gan had nothing to do with the Hon
duran loan, so far as the department
was advised He said that the loan any
way, would be negotiated directly be-
tween the Honduran government and
the bankers interested, and that the
State Department would have nothing
to do with it until the time came to ex-
anime the terms. Then, he said, the de-
parrment would merely uass upon their
fairness to all interests concerned.
Mr.. Morgan did not call at the State
Department today, and up to this after
noon had made no engagement to see
any of the officials there.

GOOD NEWS
Every Sufferer from Catarrh,
Coughs, Colds and Sore Throat
Should Read II.

SO many hundreds OF catarrh victims
who have taken the HY0MET treat
ment, have written us letters thanking
US for publishing our method OF taking
the HYOMEI vapor treatment in con
nection with the inhaler that we gladly
publish it again.
The vapor treatment Is especially rec
commended in stubborn cases OF chronic
catarrh Of long standing, but remember
that the inhaler should be used daily as
usual.
This is the simple vapor treatment
and only takes five minutes OF your time
before going to bed. Pour a teaspoon
ful OF HYOMEI into q bowl OF boiling
water, cover head and bowl with towel
and breathe for several minutes the
vapor that arises.
You will be surprised at the result OF
this treatment; it makes the head feel
| fine and clear; you will sleep better, and
that stuffed up feelinng In the head will
gradually disappear.
The same method will break up the
worst cold in the head or chest In one
night.
A bottle OF HYOMEI costs 80 cents at
