Didn't Convert Franklin.

WhiteHeld, the great preacher, who
toward the middle Of the eighteenth
century started such q revival Of re.
ligion In all the colonies, was, OF
course, a man Of too much ability to
escape the serious regard Of Franklin,
who relates that he attended one Of
his sermons. fully resolved not to con.
tribute to the collection at the close
Of It
II had In my pocket" he says, "a
handful of copper money, three OF
four silver dollars and 8 pistoles In
gold. AS he proceeded / began to
soften and concluded to give him q
copper. Another stroke Of his oratory
determined me to give him the silver
and he finished 90 admirably that
emptled my pocket wholly into the
collectors dish, gold and all"
Franklin and Whitefeld became fast
friends, and Whitefeld often prayed
for his friends conversion, but "nev'

ton Of believing that his prayers were

Strong drink and quinine may relieve
cold, but it usually does more harm
than good.
To break mp bard cold in either head
or chest thousands are using this sensible
treatment.
First of all look after your bowels;
IL they need attention use any reliable
cathartic. Then pour scant teaspoon
full of HYOMET into a bowl of boiling
water, cover head and bowl with towel
and breathe for or 10 minutes the
pleasant, soothing, healing vapor.
Do this just before going to bed: your
head will feel fine and clear and you'll
awake from refreshing sleep minus a
cold in the morning.
For colds, coughs, catarrh, asthma and
Group HYOMEl is guaranteed. A fifty
cent bottle is all you need to break up a
cold and this can be obtained at Chas. H.
Howard Co.'s and druggists everywhere.
