Think "HyomeI the Most Wonderful
Treatment for catarrh Ever

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
viii kill the bacilli OF catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Breathing the air OF Hyomei is the
only known method Of treatment that
can really accomplish this. It Is the
simplest, most pleasant and probably
the most reliable treatment for ca
tarrh that has ever been discovered.
Numerous unsolicited testimonials
have been received from prominent
men and women who have been helped
by this remarkable remedy. Ministers.
bankers. lawyers. even eminent physi-
clans have given strong testimony as
to the powers of Hyomei.

Board Of Health, on Iowa
Deaths l. Given
out.
WERE 1911 ALL TOLD
Organic Diseases Of the Heart Was
the Cause Of Mbst Deaths Rate
Greatest Between 70
and 90 Years.

More deaths were caused in Iowa
in June from organic diseases OF the
heart than from any one trouble. &C
cording to the report Just made by
iDr. C. H. Sumner, secretary OF the
state board OF health. There were 1876
deaths from this cause. Cancer and
malignant tumors caused 1876 deaths
and Bright's disease and acute nephri-
tbs caused 1877 deaths. Apoplexy
caused Ia deaths tuberculosis OF
the lungs caused eighty-nine deaths
and tuberculosis meningitis four
deaths.
The total number Of deaths for the
month was 1871. The time Of life
when most deaths occurred. accord
ing to this report. was between 70
and 80 years, when 270 persons died.
Infants under one year old show the
next greatest mortality, 205 having
died in this state during June. The
least number OF deaths occurred from
the ages Of from i've to ten years.
when 22-deaths wore recorded. Thirty
four people past 90 years OF age died
in this state during Juno.
June this year was bad month Tor
firownings. as % deaths were reported
from accidental drownings. An un-
usual amount or high water ana Dad
washouts are responsible for this.
There were ~ suicides during the
month and there were &c deaths
caused by railroad accidents. Eighteen
were killed In automobile accidents,
I've were killed by lightning, and there
were three homicides.
More men died than women. there
being 877 males and 694 females.
There were 679 deaths among mar
ried persons and 500 among single
persons.
Accidental deaths seem to be on
the increase from year to year, due
to the use OF machinery In various
ways apparently. During every sum
mer month there are always fatal &C.
cidents, many of them resulting from
the use Of the automobile. Accidents
are more prevalent during the sum
mer than in winter.

CALLED PARADISE OF BIRDS
Great Lake Region Abounds in Rare
songsters - Attracted by the
Many Lakes,

The lake region of Michigan and
Wisconsin has been described as the
paradise of birds"
In Michigan alone 300 species of
birds have been identified. The great
lakes and the thousands of lesser
lakes add to the bird life by calling to
these waters the aquatic birds Mich
igan has many birds whose habitat is
in the far north around Hudson bay
and others that live in the states
south of Michigan, even along and be-
yond the Gulf of Mexico. The first
are illustrated by the Bohemian wax
wing, spruce partridge, Canadian jay
and others. while the summer red
bird, the hooking bird and the card
inal red bird illustrate the second
group.
The great lakes attract many birds
that are usually. maritime, such as
gulls and terms.
Michigan abounds in lakes-there
are 425, for instance, within a 25-mile
radius of Battle Creek-and there are
the nesting places for y interesting
birds n 1t found elsewhere.

TAKING THOUGHT.

A little time and trouble is all
that is needed to secure those au-
thoritative figure lines which insure
the style and fit of gown.
The new Warner rust-proof cor
sets, launched early this month, en-
body every new style point of the
season, without any sacrifice of the
wear and comfortable fit for which
they are famous.
No model suits all figures, but
there is a correct type for each in
dividual, which insures the best ap-
pearance in any style of dress.
Considerable increase in fexibility
has been secured by thin double
boning, while double thin interlining
adds not a wit to the bulk yet in
creases the satisfactory wear always
guaranteed.

EVIL In Suspicion.

To be suspicious is to make oneself
the friend and intimate Of evil. 1t is
to ally oneself with all the evil forces
in the world. Through thinking SO
much of evil, through being constantly
on the watch for it, the suspicious peo-
pie make observations that are, at
times, seemingly amazing in acute
ness. But even here they do them
selves harm, by gaining more and
more confidence in their suspicious,
by making themselves more and more
enslaved. Their loss may be under
stood by all Of us by rejecting on
what they would gain if their minds
had taken the direction of good ally
ing them to Fill the wholesome forces.

CORD GIRDLES.

One notes girdles of heavy silk
cords as a new trimming fad. These
usually match the tone of the coat or
dress but sometimes are of black or
colored getups. Dark richness of
coloring is the prevailing note
among the best street costumes de-
signed for later wear, though just
now jerseys of silk fibre revival the
plumage of a parrot for brilliancy
of color. The brighter the contrast
the better seems to be the prevail
ing motto in such attire.
EVENING FROCKS.
Whatever else an evening frock
possesses or lacks, it must CLEAN
and glitter somewhere, if it is to be
in line with fashions edicts. Metal
brocades and bead embroideries and
trimmings are the means used to
produce this modish glimmer. The
lovely and expensive silks with their
scintillating patterns are rather
sparingly used as hens or bands and
for panniers over skirts built of
filmy lace or chiffon.
A notable French model of this
type has the skirt of blue chiffon
the flounces edged with velvet rib
bon. Yellow lowered taffeta forms
the Marie Antoinette panniers, and
extends above the belt to form an
open peasant bodice caught at the
bust with a quaint little velvet bow.
The chemisette of the chiffon has
straps of velvet tied on the should
ers, also a plain unadorned bebe
sleeve.
