To Break Up Cold
SOME ADVICE THAT WILL
SAVE TIME AND MONEY.

cold, but it usually does more harm
than good.
To break up a hard cold in either
head or chest. thousands are using this
sensible treatment:
First of all. look after your bowels;
if they need attention. use any reliah'e
cathartic. Then pour a scant teaspoon
full of Hyomei into a bowl of boiling
water, cover head and bowl with a
towel, and breathe for five or ten min
utes the pleasant, soothing, healing
vapor
Do this just before going to bed 4;
your head will feel fine and clear and
you'll awake from a refreshing sleep
minus cold in the morning
For colds. coughs, catarrh, asthma
and Group Hyomei is guaranteed. 4 80
cent bottle is all you need to break up
cold, and this can be obtained at the
Harper House pharmacy and druggists
everywhere.

GAS RANGES FOR
USE OF MILITIA

Tomorrow at high noon, Commits
sionerJonas Bear is to be the guest OF
honor at Armory hall, where he is 60
ing to be a regular soldier and dig into
the rations along with the mllltlamen.
His invitation was extended him by
Lieutenant l.. T. LeBron, quartermas-
ter and commissary provisional battal'
ion 9Th infantry, because of the com
missioners efforts to make the sol
diers more comfortable.
Owing to the fact that the regular
field ranges would be impracuca0le
for use in the armory hall, Mr.. Bear
ordered gas connections installed, and
two stoves are now set up in the
checking room, which is utilized as
combined kitchen and store house.
Six high tables have been set up,
and after the men have lined up and
received their allotted portion of pro-
vender, they stand up at the tables.
When asked why the men did not sit
down, Lieutenant LeBron explained
that when a man attempted forward
pass mouthward with a soup spoon,
and said pass was incompleted, the
penalty was a dirty uniform.
About $50 men are fed at the Ar
mory daily, during which time it is es-
timated that approximately 172 pounds
of beef and 131 pounds of bread are
consumed. besides an allowance of po-
tatoes, one-pound to the man, and one
egg to a man Today cabbage adorned
the menu, and because of the presence
of this delicacy, the occasion was a
gala one.
After the men have finished eating,
they pass in line, first scraping the
remnants into a basket, then dipping
their dishes in a tub of hot water, an,
ether tub of rinsing water, after which
they grab a towel, dry the tinware, and
the repast is over. II is feared b.
many that Jonas Bear will renege on
the dishwashing tomorrow.
