 But too many accidents still hap pen" continued the speaker. They are due primarily to a man taking a chance and to iufractions of the com pany's rules.
 'I consider that the limit has been reached in the matter of what the company can do toward the eHmiuia- tion of accidents. Improvements have been made in every department of the mines and the cutting of the percnt- age of accidents. now occurring, is entirely up to the men themselves. When the men are working under ground, rather than take chance on it. or to clean off the breast of working before drilling a hole, and taking other precautions, then the ideal condition. sought by the Safety First departmN {, will have been real ized

 Captain Hodgson was the first on the program. Interested as he is and has been in the Saftey First move ment since its inception, and one Of hardest workers in its case, Captain Hodgeson's remarks may be consid- cred as those which have come from one who has been through the mill" and knows the grindings thereof
 'lt pays to be careful" said the speaker He then continued to tell of the immense possibilities in the line of Safety First work, in every de- partment of the company's activities. In speaking of labor and its right to pro/ction, and its right to be educat- ed to protect itself, Captain Hodgson made the remark the human life must always be sacred"

 It's a work worth while doing" de. clared the superintendent "Tm proud of it and hope it goes forward to the state of perfection"
 Wallace McKeehan, superintendent of the safety first department of the Copper Queen Company was the next speaker He told of the twenty months actual, organized labor in Safety First work for the company and the benefits that have been derived from its institution He spoke of the manner in which the men were taking hold of the idea. and asked that an even more appreciation of the work be shown in the future

OLD AND NEW WAY
TO TREAT CATARRH
Breathing 4 Germ killing Air En-
dorsed BY Actual Results.

Breathing q Germ killing Air En-
dorsed BY Actual Results.
The discovery OF Hyomei has
wrought a wonderful change In the
treatment Of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medi-
cines ordinarily employed in the cure
OF this disease were drugs, sprays.
lotions, etc. In some instances they
benefited, but the improvement Was
not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air
passages Of your throat and head a
balsamic air that goes into the minut-
est cells, and should effectually kill
all germs and microbes Of catarrh. It's
purpose is to enter the blood with
the oxygen, killing the germs in the
blosd, and restore health to the whole
system. Many astonishing testimoni
ais have been received from those
who have been helped by Hyomei.

includes an inhaler, dropper and sufi'

ment.
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to doubters, Is the fact
that Wilkinson & Co. have so much
faith in Hyomei that they sell every
package under positive guarantee to
refund the money II it does not re.
lieve.
Now is the time to begin the use
of Hyomei and rid yourself OF this
serious and oftentimes dangerous dis.
ease. Nothing is gained by waiting
till the vicious microbes Of catarrh
have made still further inroads on
your health.

70 CHANGE YOUR SKIN !
How to Develop the Highest
Degree Of Vital, Nervous

Snakes throw off their outer skin
once a year. Human beings change
their skin perhaps nine times in a
year; that is, they have a new skin
about once in six weeks.
The value of q clean skin in main
tanning health is not properly under
stood by the majority Of people. Clean
illness is a part OF health. You can
not be healthy unless you are clean
not only externally, but also inter
nally.
The blood should also be assisted
occasionally. like the skin, in throw
ing OF poisons SO that the system may
not get clogged and leave weak spot
for disease germs to enter the system.
Whe1 the blood is clogged we suffer
from what is commonly called a cold.

cry purifies the blood and entirely
eradicates the poisons that breed and
feed disease. 1t thus cures scrofula,

blood Is essential to good health. The
weak, rundown, debilitated condition
which so many people experience Is
commonly the effect Of impure blood

impurities, but it increases the activity
