story to be told over and over again
on occasion-and of. too.
Emerson Hough, who in his novels

tires of telling about a guide he once
had on a fishing trip In the Adiron-
dacks. This guide had also been en-
pioyed by Grover Cleveland and DR.
Henry van Dyke Of Princeton unlver
sity. Shortly after the birth OF Presi.
dent Cleveland's little daughter the
chief executive went on a fishing
trip and was delighted to learn that
his guide had also become father.
How much did your baby weigh al

the guide.

MONEY BACK
CATARRH
REMEDY

Dosing the stomach won't kill Ca
tarrh germs. Neither will sprays,
douches, snuffs or ointments.
The quickest way to kill germs IS
to breathe deep into the lungs the
vaporized aid of Booths HYOMEI.
AS this antiseptic air passes over
the sore spots infested with Catarrh
germs, it not only destroys them, but
heals the inflamed membrane and
stops the discharge of mucus.
Then hawking, splitting, snuffing,
crusts in nose and foul breath will
disappear, and vile, disgusting Ca
tarrh will be conquered.
A complete HYOMEI outfit, which
includes hard rubber inhaler, only
costs $1.00. Extra bottles, if. after
wards needed, soc; and G. r. Fogg is
authorized to refund your money /.
