SIMPLE REMEDY
FOR CATARRH

Just Breathe Hyomei Four Times a
Day and Be Relieved.
II a few years ago some one had
said you could treat catarrh by breath
ing air charged with healing balsam,
the idea would have been ridiculed
and II remained for that eminent in
vestigator, r. T. Booth, to discover in
Hyomei this wonderful method of
treatment.
Hyomei has performed almost
miraculous results in treating catarrh
and is today recognized by thousands
OF people as the only advertised rem
edy for catarrh that can be relied
upon to do just what it claims. The
complete outfit of Hyomei is inexpen-
sive and consists Of an inhaler, a
medicine dropper and a bottle Of Hyo-
mel.
Breathe the air OF Hyomei through
the little inhaler druggists furnish
with it for few minutes four times
day and 1t will help the worst case
OF catarrh. It soothes and heals the
mucous membrane Of the air pass
ages, prevents irritation, and effects
complete and lasting relief
In Keokuk there are scores Of we'll
known people who have been relieved
OF catarrh by Hyomei. If it does not
help you Wilkinson & Co. will return
the money you paid for Hyomei. This
is the strongest evidence that can be
offered as to their faith in this rem
edy.

What the War Moves Mean
By J. w. T. Mason, Former European Man
ager of the United Press.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
NEW YORK, Dec. 2s.-Withdrawal
of the Indian troops from the western
battle front, is undoubtedly due to
their comparative failure as fighters
when facing heavy artillery fire. 1t
has long been understood that the
moral stamina required rnder mod
ern conditions Of artillery warfare Is
possessed only to inferior degree by
the Indians.
Apparently the removal Of the In
dian subjects is as important decis-
ion as to policies since the change in
command Of British forces in Belgium
and France. This is done because OF
the need OF more troops in Egypt and
Mesopotimia. Instead of sending ex-
,clusively white troops to the east, the
whites are hereafter to be concentrat-
ed in France and Belgium and the In
,dians are to be used where the de-
imoralizing effect Of artillery is not so
