FIRE CHIEF ED. HITE
MAKING GOOD AT NASHVILLE

Fire Chief Ed. Hite, Wednesday
morning received communication
from Ruby Laffoon, stating that the
fire insurance rates of Maysville
would be materially reduced in the
next few weeks, after the State rat
ing board had completed it's investi-
cation. For several months Chief
Hite has been working on this prop
osition, securing data from towns all
over the State as to the fire insurance
rates in cities of the same population
as Maysville. He found out that sew
eral places had lower rates than
Maysville, and that their fire protec-
ton was not half as good. Acting
upon this information he placed the
matter before Mr.. LaffOon.

SIMPLY BREATHE IT
That's the Way You Use Hyomsi, the Simple, Safe and Effective
 Catarrh Remedy,

The most pleasant, easiest, safe, ef- fect3ve, and the really sensible method for the treatment and cure of eatarrh IS Hyomei, which can be had from any drug store. Just put twenty drops of the liquid in the small inhaler that comes with every complete outfit, then breathe 1t few minutes four times a day. It almost instantly clears the head and stops that annoying snifling.
 When using Hyomei, every particle of air that enters the breathing organs is charged with an antiseptic, healing, health restoring balsam that destroys the catarrh germs. stops the unelean o1schargeS from the nose. relieves the Irritation. and quickly heals the sore, raw and indamed tissues
 The first days use of Hyomei will show decided improvement, no mat ter how distressing the trouble, and in a very short time all catarrh symp- toms will entirely disappear. It's action IS not only rapid but lasting.
 There Is no more common yet dan- gerous disease than catarrh, which usually begins with a neglected cold. Do not endanger your health by let- ting your catarrhal trouble become chronic. Begin the Hyomei treatment tooay-it is inexpensive, safe and re- liable. Lee & Osgood always sells it on the "No-cure-no-pay' plan.
