A NapoIeonic Veteran.

In Wilma, which is temporarily in the
possession of Germany, lives Peter
I.aptieff, one of Europe's "old men"
for he was born in the year 1883
When Napoleon invaded Russia and
got as far as Dvinsk he was in need
of guide But the inhabitants had
filed. I.aptieffs family hiding in the
recesses of a forest. But curiosity
drew him, and he hid in tree to
watch the invaders. He was seen,
captured and taken before the En-
peror. who ordered him to act as
guide to the vanguard OF the army.
This he did for thirty-five hours, and
then escaped He fought against
both of his country's present allies;
against the French at Borodino and
against the English in the Crimea.
Tired of making history, he took to
making bricks, but now lives in re-
tirement with his son and grandson.
wilma is town that has seen many
ups and downs in the course of its
history. 1t is first heard of in 1928,
and was united with Poland Wnen lts
prince, Casimir w., was elected to
the Polish throne in the fifteenth cen
fury Ravaged by plague in 1888, by
fire in 1910, ana in the wars that en-
sued between Russia and Poland, it
passed into Russian hands in 1865,
only to be taken by Sweden in 1902
and again in 1706. Finally, Russia re
conquered it in 1888, and annexed it
in 1885 Even this was not the end
of its troubles, for the Poles rose in
1891 and again in 1868, and in each
case the town of Wilma was severely
punished by Russia. Its cathedral OF
St. Stanislaus dates from 1887, and
contains the silver sarcophagus of

RELIEVES THE WORST
CASES OF CATARRH
Think "Hyomei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered"

Do not try to cure catarrh by using
sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured
in that manner The only way in
which this too common disease can
be fully relieved is through direct
application to the affected parts that
will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Breathing. the air of Hyome is the
only known method OF treatment that
can really accomplish this 1t is the
simplest, most pleasant and probably
the most reliable treatment for ca
tarrh that has ever been discovered.
The complete Hyomei outfit is in
expensive and consists Of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect in
slant relief in ordinary cases, but for
chronic and deep-seated cases of ca
tarrh, longer use may be necessary
and then an extra bottle of Hyomei
can be obtained for tritiing sum. 1t
is not alone the best( it might be
called the only method of treating
catarrh, but it is also the most eco
nomical.
w. L. Gokay has so much conf
dence in the power of Hyomei to re-
lieve catarrh. that he will for a limit
ed time. sell this medicine under his
personal guarantee to refund the
money if the purchaser can say that
it did not benefit.

PERSONAL FLAGS.
Special Embems For the President and

special Emblems FOR the President and
Other Officials.
Until 1881 the pres ident of the Unit
ed States had no personal flag, his
presence Oh board an American naval
vessel being indicated 10y hoisting the
national emblem at the head OF the
mainmast, and the garrison flag. re
served for times of special ceremony,
was displayed on the staff at army
posts whenever he visited them
The need of Il special flag for the
president was frequently felt, especial
" when visiting royalty was entertain
cd in his country. In August 1882
st was directed by the secretary of the
navy that THE flag of the president of
the United States shall consist of a
blue ground with the arms of the
United States in the center. The flag
shall be hoisted ut the mainmast OF
the vessel of war while the president
is on board and shall be carried in the
bow of his boat"
For years after this the national flag
was used for indicating the presence
of the vice president or of an ex-presi
dent, but this use was more or less
confusing, and, besides, it was argued,
the stars and stripes properly stand
for the nation rather than any in
dividual For this reason special flag
for the vice president was adopted.
This flag is the same in design as the
presidents naval blue flag, except that
the national coat of arms is emblazon.
