that a permanent punting plot be

CATARRH GERMS
EASILY KILLED
Only Way TO Cure This Diseases
Is To Destroy Its Cause.

Only Way TO Cure This Diseases
Is To Destroy Its Cause.
If you have catarrh and want
to get rid of 1t you must kill the
germs which cause catarrh. Stom-
ach dosing, ointments, sprays.
creams, douches, ETC., fail because
they overlook this fact. They all
help by giving temporary relief
but they do not reach the germ
life that has found lodgment in
your head, nose, throat, and could
not destroy it IL they did.
The best known way of de-
stroying the dangerous germs of
Catarrh and consequently ending
the disease itself, is to breathe
into the air passages of your nose
Iand throat the pleasant, penetrst-
ing air of Hyomei pronounced
High-o-me). Hyomei is made
from purest oil of Eucalyptus COM
bined with other powerful, heal
ing, antiseptic and germicidal in
gradients. You breathe 1t
through a little pocket inhaler
which Crown Drug Co., 1882 Pa
cific Ave, and other leading drug
gists in Tacoma and vicinity are
furnishing with every complete
treatment sold. Every time yon
inhale the sweet, fragrant air Of
Hyomei through this little device
you are drawing into your swol-
len, inflamed, germ laden men,
branes a medicated air which will
not only reduce all the swelling
and inflammation and open your
lclogged. nose and stopped UP air
passages, but will absolutely and
positively destroy every trace OF
Catarrh germ life It reaches.
Druggists are so sure of the
blessed, lasting relief that Hyomei
brings to catarrh sufferers that
they sell 1t invariably on the pos
tive guarantee that money paid
will be refunded IL successful re-
suits are not secured from ITS use.
Get a Hyomei outfit from your
druggist today and begin at once
to drive this dangerous and dis
gushing disease from your system
forever

Puzzled Uncle Pash.

From the time the coal and iron
territory round about Jenkins vas
opened up and the town began to form
itself out of the construction and pros
pecting camps, P. c.. Dix, secretary
of the state executive committee Of
the Young Mems Christian associa-
ton, took a deep interest in it's de-
velopment and spent much time there
assisting in the formation of a strong
and active branch of the association.
One story he tells is of an aged noun
taineer, who, after the railroad trains
had begun running regularly ventured
down to see for himself some of the
wonders Of which he had vaguely
heard. He stood on the rude platform
and watched the train pull in. After
a few minutes it backed up a little
way. What dye think Nv her, Uncle
Pash?" asked one of the loungers.

MUST HAVE SHOCKED JUDGE
What He Regarded as "Dr'bblIn9s' OF
Hay Was All He Was Co.
ing to Get.

A distinguished member OF the
United States judiciary has dlsco7-
cred that he still has something to
learn in the direction of agriculture.
He bought a farm as a summer
home for his family, and finds especial
delight in walking about tho place,
commenting on the condition of the
crops, and in many ways showing his
interest in his new possessions.
One evening during the summer he
was strolling over the farm. The
hired man nae cut the grass during
the day-a very thin crop-and left
it on the ground to dry. h judge
saw it, and calling his man, he said:
1T seems to me you are very care
less. Why haven't you been more par
ticular in raking up this hay? Don't
you see that you have left little drib-
blings all around?"
For a minute the hired man stared.
wondering if the judge was quizzing
him. Then he replied:
Little dribblings? Why, man, that's

Vooue of White Paint.

A clever decorator who remodeled
the dining room in a New England
farm house has even gone so far in
her use of white paint as to finish the
floors with it. The woodwork and
furniture were also white, but plenty
of color was introduced by bright
chintz-patterned paper and plain
bright green rugs. The white dining
room table was always bare, which
allowed the mistress to use many at
tractively colored dolly sets. Her
china showed up to splendid advan-
tage on-this white ground, and the
flowers from the garden seemed un.
usually bright and pretty in the midst
OF all this white. A country house
near Cleveland has all its floors paint
ed white, with bright green, blue and
purple rugs used to carry out certain
color schemes. OF course, using white
on floors is practical only when you
are far from the city's smoke or mo-
tors dust.-The Countryside Maya

When James Brood and his wire
reached the sidewalk they found him
there, directly in their path, as they
wedged their way to the curb to await
the automobile. He was smiling
frankly, wistfully. There was an hon.
est gladness in his fine. boyish face
and an eager light in his eyes. He no
longer had the sense Of guilt in his
soul. 1t had beer a passing quaim'
and he felt regenerated for having eA-

how 1t had purged his oul OF the n
lingering doubt as to the sincerity Oh
his impulses.
"Hello!" he said. planting himself
squarely in front Of them.
There was a momentary tableau. He
was wildly aware Of the fact that
Yvonne had shrunk back in alarm, and
that a swift look of fear leaped into
her surprised eyes. She drew closer
to Brood's side-or was it the jostllng
Of the crowd that made 1T seem to be
so? He realized Their that she had not
seen him in the theater. Her surprise
was genuine. 1t was not much short
of CONSERVATION, a fact that he re-
allied with a sudden sinking Of the
heart.
Then his eyes went quickly to his
fathers face. James Brood was re-
garding him with a cold, significant
smile, as one who understands and
despises.

much as a glance at Frederic, stepped
inside. The door was slammed and

how ineffably happy, how peaceful life
would be If his father were to lay his
hands upon his shoulders and say, my
son, l love you-I love you dearly"
There would be no more lonely days;
all that was bitter in his life would be
swept away in the twinkling of an
eye; the world would be full of joy for
him and for Lydia.
When he entered the house that
evening he was full Of resentment
toward his father, and sullen with the
remains of an ugly rage. And now to
be actually craving the affection Of the
man who humbled him, even in the
presence Of servants! 1t was unbe-
lievable. He could not understand
himself. A wonderful, compelling ten.
derness filed his heart. He longed to
throw himself at his fathers feet and
crave his pardon for the harsh, venge.
full thoughts he had spent upon him
in those black hours. He hungered
for a word Of kindness or OF under.

starving soul. He wanted his fathers
love. He wanted, more than anything
else in the world, to low his father.

For a long time Lydia stared

positively dumb with wonder and &C.
k~nowledging a sense Of dismay over
her own disposition to submit to this
extraordinary situation. She was ask

Lydia felt a little shiver race over
