HAVE YOU CATARRH?
it's Dangerous Diseass-t4yonel il the Easy. safs and Rapid
 Remedy.

Catarrh, which is usually idicated by shifting. frequent colds. droppfngs in the throat, and raising of mucus, is a serious disease because 1t surely spreads to the delicate lining of the air passages. weakens the entire sys- tenn, frequently destroying the hearing, and makes a mental and physical wreck of it's victims.
 It's as foolish to take drugs to cure catarrh as to swallow pill to heal a broken arm. You must have a direct applfcatio something that will at once reach the diseased tissues, kill the germs. and drive out the poison.
 Hyomei. that can be had from any druggist, is just such a remedy. Being mixture of antiseptic and healing oils that you breathe through a small inhaler It's health medication cannot help going direct to the raw and infamed lining of the nose and throat, quickly relieving that choked- up feeling, stopping the uncIean dis charges from the nose and healing the sore spots-you breathe freely. Even the worst cases respond at once
 There is nothing for the treatment of catarrh ills that is easier, more pleasant or so satisfying as Hyonei, and it is most inexpensive. Lee 6 Osgood sells 1t on the ''No-cure- pay" plan.

LATE REAR ADMIRAL MARIAN WARNED THIS
 NATION TO PREPARE

Although by. no means a militarist, in the sense that he demanded at any time measures of aggression, the late Rear Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan, who died suddenly in Washington, had preached for years the necessity of the United States being prepared. His writings, the most important of which were for the purpose of showing the influence of naval affairs in the strug- gles of nations, were all dominated by this thought He believed that nations, in the past and present, paid too little attention to "sea power a phrase used constantly by him, and most of his books, which attracted great attention, were analyses of the effect of water struggles in past wars. Although he was in the navy for many years and saw active service in the Civil war, he was probably best known as a theoret- ical strategist and naval historian Some of his books have been trans lated into many foreign languages. He was born in 1840 at West Point.

1,s25,127 ENGAGED IN
 PROFESSIONAL PURSUITS
Gain of Half a Million from 1900 tc
 1910.

Washington, Dec. 1-More than a half million more persons were en- gagged in professional pursuits in the United States in 1910 than in 1900, ac- cording to figures today by the census bureau. In 1910 the number of per sons engaged in professional pursuits was 1,S25,127, compared with 1,258,53S in 190O
 Of those engaged in professional oc- equations in 1910. 1,151,7S9 were males and 673,418 females. This compares with s27, 7,941 males and 430,597 females in 1900.
 During the decade the proportion of males decreased in the professions from 65-S to 63.1 per cent. while that of females increased from 34.2 to 36.9 per cent In 1910 there were four women to every seven men engaged in professional service, a large propor- ton of the women being teachers.
 Some of the most noteworthy in creases follow: Architects, males 110.5, females 200.7; literary and scientific persons, males 1929. females 126.0; actors, males 95.6, females s8.1. The smallest increase was in the number of lawyers, males being 65 and females 53.0.

DISADVANTAGE OF WHITE
 UNIFORM FOR THE NAVY.
Surgeon General Braisted Wants Change to Khaki or Forestry Green.


 Washington, Dec. 1.-Another plea for uniforms of khaki and forestry green to replace the bullet drawing white worn by American seamen was made by Surgeon General Braisted of the navy in his annual report submit ted today to Secretary Daniels. It was pointed out that the disadvantages of the white uniforms were strikingly H. lustrated at Vera Cruz, where the sailors offered perfect targets for sharpshooters and snipers.
 The surgeon general reported that the medical department of the navy apparently was efficient and prepared to meet all present peace time de- mands, and that the health of the navy personnel during the yeaH was good showing a satisfactory improvement over last year. An increase in the number of malaria cases was account ed for by the detention of so many warships in Mexican waters. The value of mosquito screens was demonstrated

called The Forerunner, is now in it's fifth year and has apparently won for itself an assured place among period teal publications.
 Mrs. Gilman's philosophy is at once simple and satisfactory.
 In the light of her interpretation, human ethics becomes a practical sci- ence, economics is no longer dismal, but full of hope and safety, education is a lifelong joy, the sex question is quietly settled and a conscious moth erhood is shown, capable of regenerat- ing the world.
 In this treatment it is wonderful to see how many of the riddles of life" of all the social problems. large and small, which vex our souls today, be- come no longer hopeless enigmas,. but merely examples such as are set the child in school. quite easily within our power to solve. Mrs. Gilman's brilliant mind has won for her distinctive place among the famous women of the world, and she was one of the promi- s1ent speakers at the international con- gresses in London in 1899. in Berlin in 1904 and in Budapest in 1913. In 1905 she was again called abroad and spoke in many of the leading cities of Europe to large and enthusiastic audiences.
 A course of six discussion lectures on War and the World Hope is now being given bv Mrs. Gilman in New York. They are drawing great num- bers of both men and women and are creating a profound interest. Mrs. Gilman is always glad to answer Ques- lions from her audience and there will doubtless be many asked Friday night.
