OLD AND NEW WAY
TO TREAT CATARRH
Breathing a Germ-Killing Air Endorsed by
Actual Results

The discovery Of Hyomei has wrought a won
derful change in the treatment of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago, the medicines ordi-
nariy employed in the cure of this disease
were drugs, sprays. lotions, etc. In some in
stances they benefited, but the improvement
was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air passages
Of your throat and head balsamic air that
goes into the minutest cells, and should effec-
tually kill all germs and microbes of catarrh.
Its purpose is to enter the blood with the
oxygen. killing the germs in the blood, and
restore health to the whole system. Many
astonishing testimonials have been received
from those who have been helped by Hyomei
A compile outfit is inexpensive and includes
an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyomei for
several weeks treatment
Perhaps the strongest evidence that can be
given 10 doubters, is the fact that the Red
Cross Pharmacy have much faith in Hyomei
that they sell every package under positive
guarantee to refund the money II 1t does pot
relieve.
Now is the time 10 begin the use of Hyomei
and rid yourself Of this serious and ofteutimes
dangerous disease. Nothing is gained by wait
ing till the vicious microbes Of catArrh have
made still further inroads your health

atizaffun Of THAT Printer OF Udelis"
at the Grand last Saturday night to
what might be termed "a rather slim
house,
To those who have the, story Of the
reformed printer" and his efforts to
reform the church. the presentation was
hardly what might have been expected
owing. no doubt. to the fact that only
few of the choice passages that make
the reading of the book a delight could
be brought out without incongruity.
However, Rufus Perry, as Adam
Goodrich, the well-to-do churchman,
who thinks that contributions from the
pocketbook are all that is required of
him, was the strong character of the
play and more than once his superb
acting overshadowed that OF Howard
Falkner, the real hero.
Falkner's acting at times was a bit
overdOne, as was that of Amy Good
rich. the rich mans daughter, who fell
In love with him and thereby caused
the whole disturbance about which the
plot was woven.

probably the most realistic character in
the play and his rendition Of Wright g

PANIED out very well. To put the
matter = trifle more bluntly, nearly
all Of these experiments, with the pos

have resulted in dismal failures.
| Texas went into the state owned
railroad business a number of years
ago with the usual Texas hurrah and
to the hosannas Of those who believe
in the theory OF government owner
ship. The investment has been an ex-
pensive one to Texas. and for a couple
of years or more the Lone star state
has been endeavoring to dispose of the
railroads from which such great
things were expected to private cor
porations. Maybe she has by this
time. The deficits Of $4,000 and a
100000 that these railroads rolled up
each year sealed their fate. And it
must be remembered that these rail-
roads were not extensive lines by any
means.
Only the other day resolutions were
presented to the city council of Seattle
providing for a referendum to the
people of the question ~ to whether
or not the two lines Of street railways.
that that city has owned and operated
for some time, shall be sold. The
sentiment among the people Of Seattle
on this question is said not to be in
the slightest doubt. They are tired Of
making money backwards, as their
city railways lines have been operated
at a net loss of $4,000 per month to
the city. In other. words, the people Of
Seattle have been playing their street
car fare as usual and also digging into
theiy pockets for additional taxes to
make up the losses due to the impos-
sibility Of their municipality to make
both ends come anywhere near meet
ing in the operation Of the city's tram
ways.
This resolution is being pressed in
the Seattle council by councilmen who
have been committed to the principle
of municipal ownership. And the
father of the resolution. a Councilman
Dale. makes the rather unique argu-
ment in favor of the resolution that he
is in favor of municipal ownership
only when the utilities owned and
operated can be made at least self
sustaining and to serve the people in
an adequate manner.
All Of which would seem to be the
best possible argument for the greater
efficiency Of the private corporation
in the operation Of public utilities. The
Seattle city council must appreciate
the fact that it would be impossible
even for private corporation to
operate street railways that showed a
loss of $4,000 for each successive
month Of their operation. Seattle adj
mits it can't do the trick. And its
proposal to sell is no more than a
confession that a private corporation
can: else the city could never hope
for a buyer to take her white elephant
off her hands.
