To Treat Catarrh
Breathing a Germ Killing Air Endors-

= The discovery of Hyomei has
wrought wonderful change in the
treatment of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the med-'
cines ordinarily employed in the
cure of this disease were drugs,
sprays, lotions. etc. In some in
stances they benefited, but the inn
provement was not lasting

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 eatarrh.
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 ties
timonials have been received from
those who have been helped by Hyo-
mel.
A complete outfit is inexpensive
and includes an inhaler, dropper and
sufficient Hyomei for several week S
treatment.
Perhaps the strongest evidence
that can be given to doubters, is the
fact that W.. l.. Gokay had so much
faith in Hyomei that he sells every
package under a positive guarantee
to refund the money if it does not re.

w nth the earliest hats for spring, or
" with some of them, there is no
chance of coiffures which require any
extra size in the crown or head-size.
For the new ventures in millinery are
even smaller than the small hats worn
this winter. Many of them are merely
q narrow band of satin or straw ex-
tending like bandage about the head,
supporting scant crown of satin gath
cred in to the band at its upper edge.
BY way of trimming, exquisitely made
flowers are sewed fat to the band.
There are sailors and other shapes
that fit as closely.
For such close-ftting headwear the
problem is that of disposing of the
average quantity of natural hair so
that it will not interfere with the fit
of the hat, and also to provide a few
waves in the locks about the face to
soften the severity of straight lines In
he hat. The plain couture shown in
he picture given here offers a SOLD
ion that is attractive. 1t is becoming
most faces and easy to accomplish

THERE is greater variety of styles
and a greater latitude for the
taste of the individual in afternoon
gowns than in others. Something like
uniformity is evidenced in costumes
for the street; women confine their
choice in dresses of this kind to one
of half-dozen Cor even fewer ac-
cepted styles. But in the afternoon
gown they are inclined to run after
strange gods. However, these are the
gods of unpretentious and conserva-
tive styles, it seems, and a definite
simplicity Is an apparent governing
idea in great many of the new
modes. But afternoon gowns are not
to be measured by any rule, and there
is no harm in repeating that the indi-
vidual may follow her own sweet will
In selecting the styles that please her
best.
A radical departure from accepted
styles was evident in the afternoon

dress pictured here, when it first APP
Feared. 1t was one of those produced
by Kurzman, for the display of Ameri-
can designs, at New York. Among
many lovely things it was admired and
praised, but was so different in outline
from prevailing modes that it became
something of sensation.
1t is clearly set forth in the picture
and so plain that it hardly needs de-
scription. 1t is made of corded silk,
has plain, faring skirt and an equally
plain boned bodice. The sleeves are
very short, with turned-back cuffs Of
the material, and tichu finishes the
neck. There is no frill or fall of lace,
no girdle, no embroidery or other or
namentation. 1t is almost austere and
is saved by it's quaintness and pictur-
esque attributes. Since the advent
of this gown doubts as to the coming
of the wide rippled skirt have disap-
peared; it no longer looks unusual.

and butter. Add, after the mixture is
we'll blended, the grated rind of an or
ange and quarter Of cupful of
Juice. Pour into a wel-buttered bak-
ing dish, ornament with whole nuts
and bake until firm. Serve hot with
hard sauce and whipped cream.
A hard sauce may be made by
dreaming two tablespoonful of but
ter, add cupful of powdered sugar,
a teaspoonful of vanilla, and when
we'll mixed fold in a half cupful of
whipped cream.
Veal and Ham Pie-Trim the veal
and ham into small pieces and season
with pepper and salt to taste. Chop
finely half cupful of mushrooms and
some parsley, put them into stew
pan with one small onion chopped and
a tablespoonful of butter. Fry light
ly, then add pint of stock and SIM
mer five minutes. Put all together
into baking dish and cover with
crust. Bake and serve hot or cold.
Bran Gems.-Take two cupfuls of
bran, two cupfuls of graham -four
sifted, one-half cupful Of sugar, tea
spoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of
soda and two cupfuls Of sour milk.
Bake in gem pans.
Graham Bread.-Take two cupfuls
each Of graham and white flour, sift
the latter with one teaspoonful each
of salt and soda. Add a cupful of
molasses and enough sweet milk to
make batter, about pint. Add one
cupful of raisins and chopped wal
nuts, well Toured. Bake in a slow

Those which play upon the British
Isles from across the Atlantic are pre-
vailing southwesterly winds. Farther
north, and duplicated in the southern
hemisphere, are polar winds, desig-
mated in the northern hemisphere,
where, owing to the vast land areas,
they are of greater Importance, the
prevailing northeasterly winds. Their
ra1son d'etre is similar to that of
the trades. The presence of land, ow
ing to its greater heating power, inter-
feres with the formation and direc-
ton of the winds, notably in the case
of the monsoons of South Asia, where
seasonal variations follow the appar-
ent path of the sun, alternately over
land and over water. Land and sea
breezes alternate by day and night
along coast because of the unequal
heat acquired by the air over water
and over sea. The direction of local
winds is much affected by the dispo-
sition and height of the land though
over huge expanses of water they
have a clear path.
1t would take too long to consider
here the operation and locale of par
ticular winds; but something should
be said of the wonderful system Of
their working. Here is a beneflcent
transference Of warm air from the
heated tropical regions, where its con-
tinued presence would make life un-
endurable, to the temperate regions,
where its mildness is wanted to tenn
per" the cold. To the temperate re-
gions, where are the big habitable
areas of land come the winds most
suitable for mankind, enabling him to
work in comfort; while to the tropical
regions blow the cooling trade winds,
aiding navigation westward during
the ages before the advent of steam
and electric power.
The system of the winds is inter-
woven with the history of mankind
his migrations, his commerce, his in
dustries, his physical and mental ac-
tivities. Britons owe more of their
adaptability and endurance than they
imagine to the alienation, the clock
wise changes of the wind, from the
soft southern breezes, the moisture
laden west winds, to the bracing north
eastern and east winds which have
acquired icy GOODNESS in passing over
the plains and steppes of northeast
and east Europe.
A great service performed by wind
is the evaporation of moisture and
subsequent transference of It in the
form of rain clouds. The distribution
Of moisture is as important as the dis
tribution of temperature already noted
Yet 1t would be impossible, If wind
failed to perform its allotted office OF
carrying the clouds from over the
oceans to the continents.
In conclusion, reference must be
made to a most important Office full
filled by the winds-that OF natures
scavenger.
1t sweeps through the dirty streets
and passageways of our cities and
carries away choking dust from the
roadways in summer, and decaying
dank leaves, in autumn.

The hair is parted off about the face
and combed forward, where it is to be
coiled and pinned to keep it out of the
way, while the back hair is dressed.
If there is sufficient quantity of this
to braid into two soft full plaits it
may be managed as shown in. the pic
ture The plaits are pinned fiat across
the back of the head below the crown.
If the hair is scanty it will look better
twisted into light coils and pinned
down.
The front hair is to be parted either
in the middle or little to one side and
rolled back from the face. The ends
are twisted and concealed under the
back hair. With the toilet comb
strands Of the hair about the face are
pulled forward into loose waves and
pinned with invisible pins into posi-
ton. A liberal use of the hairpins
will keep the couture neat looking,
and as hair nets are hardly practical
for this particular style, the pins are q
necessity.

bit of garlic is an improvement Give
the eggs six or seven whisks and pour
into a pint granite dish that has been
we'll buttered. Set this in the gas
oven and turn on both burners after
the dish has been put into the oven.
AS soon as the eggs have risen to the
top of the dish, turn off one burner
and then as soon as the eggs are set,
turn off the other, leaving the eggs a.
few minutes longer. They must not
remain over twenty minutes, and
often fifteen minutes will be enough,
depending upon the gas pressure.
The lower part of the dish will be
tender and flaky, and the center
creamy, neither like scrambled egg nor
like omelet.
Use potato or turnip cups for
change instead of timbale molds or
patty shells. Peel good sized pota-
toes or small turnips cut in halves
and a slice off each end so they will
stand we'll, hollow out the centers
and cook the shells in boiling sailed
water. Use these for any creamed
vegetable, fish or chicken, having all
hot and covering them with rich
white sauce. A little filling goes fur
Their served this way and looks very
attractive. Garnish with parsley or
chopped chervil, or water cress.
Chop Suey With Fish.-Put a table
spoonful of butter in a deep frying
pan and fry in it pound of fresh
pork and cupful of diced celery and
chopped onions. Cut the pork into
bits, cover with a cupful of water and
can of mushrooms with the liquor
from them. Cook slowly for an hour,
then add cupful of finely chopped
peanuts and cupful of faxed tuna,
season highly and simmer for another
half hour. This is such an unusual
combination that it will be enjoyed
by those who are looking for new
gastronomic sensation.
