AS Postmaster Frost was being ex-
amined for life insurance one afternoon
this week in the office of one of our
LEGAL physicians, one of Gardeners le-
gal lights wandered in and inquired of
the genial postmaster what was on
she taps. The postmaster replied that
he was undergoing the blood pressure
test and jokingly stumped the follow
er of Blackstone to do likewise. No
quicker was the suggestion made
than off came the coat and vest, out
went the chest and the fun began.
Immediately the indicator on the ma
chine began to rise. Stories here some
what differ. Some say that the post
master stated that the indicator had
reached $50. AS about AS is normal,
the patient became visibly alarmed,
climbed into his coat and vest and
donned the postmaster's coat and vest
over his own. Hurrying toward the
door, it was noticed that he wore a
Shriner's pin and also that he had
assumed some other of the postmas-
ter's belongings. The story was too
good to keep, and although the VIC
tim denies that he made for the Of
flee of another physician he admits
that he was somewhat excited.

HYOMEi SOOTHES,
PURIFiES, HEALS
CATARRH ILLS

When you have frequent attacks of
sneezing or head colds, tickling in the
throat duh headaches, crusts in the
nose, raising of mucous or spasmodic
coughing, and seem lacking In vitality,
you are affected with catarrhal disease
that cannot be neglected since it often
leads to a serious if not fatal ailment.
The ravages of catarrh will in time
wreck the health of even the strongest
person. Besides, catarrh is SO unpleas-
anti makes your life miserable and an
noys your friends
At the first catarrhal symptoms surely
use Hyomei. It's the right-to-the-point
remedy-you breathe it-no nauseatins
drugs to upset your stomach.
Hyomei is combination OF antseptic
oils that you breathe into the nose,
throat and lungs in the natural way.
Just put few drops into the inhaler
and breathe it in. The germicidal fumes
mix with the air and at once penetrate
to all hooks and crevices of the mucous
membrane. 1t destroys the dangerous
germs that may be lurking in the deli
cate tissues. and Immediately soothes
and heals the raw and infiamed mem
brane.
Bowditch-W Webster Co., sell Hyomei
with an agreement to refund the pur-
chase price to anyone who is not bene-
flied You surely can afford to try it on
an offer like this. All druggists have it,

held in high regard by the Indians in
the Southwest, and in the Hopi VII
lagos play an important role In the
rain producing ceremonies.
Examples of pottery found at Pueb-
10 San Cristobal are of prehistoric de-
sign and among these specimens are
bowls and small jars with painted and
glazed decoration.
The field work of the Nelson expe-
dtion began at Ysleta del Sur, few
miles below Ell Paso, Tex, and the
advance was made UP the valley
chiefly by short railroad Journeys.
Sometimes side trips were taken on
horseback or by wagon as conditions
favored.
Mr.. Nelson covered a 300-mile stretch
on mis- expedition, and when he reach
ed the Cochiti Canon in the latitude
of Santa Fe, the location of more
than 100 archaeological sites had been
ascertained. The sites included caves,
rock shelters, camp sites and petrogiy-
phs, as well as extensive ruins.
In the opinion of the archeologist
the region was well suited for the adj
vance of primitive culture in the pre-
historic times. Most of the ruins To-
Gated by the expedition are not stu
ated on the banks of the great river
which flows through the southwest,
but TO the east and west, 30 or Az
miles away.
/ 1T is quite CERTAIN" says Mr.. Nef-
son. that these people of prehistoric
times were ancestors of the Pueblo IN
dams. Their method of house building
and agricultural pursuits and general
way of living indicate their relation
to the Pueblo Indians. They arrived
before the Spanards and afterward
their descendants lived under Spanish
influence until New Mexico was taken
by the United States.
'.The question usually propounded is,
Where did these people OF preh1sr
toric times come from? 1t is a gem
eral theory that they came from the
north, and legends handed down today
indicate or point to this conclusion.
Native Mexicans also entertain this
belief. 1t is possible that the prehistor-
ic people came to America by way or
the Boring Straits"
But that is a problem unsolved, and
MIR. Nelson may take it up on some
future expedition.
Much of the work of the Nelson ex-
pedition was accomplished in the Gal
isteo Basin. The Galisteo pueblos re-
semble those observed elsewhere in
the Rio Grande region.
They represent villages of the we'll
known eommunistic type, says the
archeologist, consisting of series
of buildings arranged at right angles
in such way as to form one or more
Enclosed courts or plazas.
Within these Enclosures are often
found traces of semisubterranean
structures, and in fact type OF UNI
derground house used today by the
Pueblo Indians of the Rio Grande.
The scheme of house building was
somewhat unique, and also varied in
the ruehlos of the region explored by
the expedition
TN one of the ruined buildings q
rooms were found upon the ground
floor and evidently the original struc-
ttlre was from two or three stories
high. Another ruined structure meas
ured 700 feet in length, and must have
contained severa, hundred rooms.
Fireplaces were discovered in some
