you are living secret life that

We are each one living four lives.
There is the life you live N business
the life our business friends know.
There is that circle. Then there is
our social life-the life our society

man is sometimes an angel at
church and a devil at home. Then
there is the homo life-the life your
wife knows. And there is another life
that your wife doesn't know about.
one other life that only God knows.
That is the life OF thought, and ambi-

That life Gods knows all about. I

A Clean Life Needed

The biggest hindFance in the say

women who are processing Christians
but who are not letting God have
his way in their lives. What is Gods
way? A clean way. Before God is go

through. Then he got clean instru-
ments and cut my nose open through

blood ran down ! could see how clean
he was Oh how careful he was. And
how clean he was about everything
And God pity the doctor who is not
clean. And one day after | was walk

the instruments twenty minutes. One

boiled twenty minutes. When they
were put on a clean tray and marked

in a drawer all by itself ready for an
other operation. If there was any
virus or pus on those instruments 1t

God have mercy on the evangelist,

NO MORE BACKACHE
NO MORE MISERY

Hundreds Of peopR have been re-
lieved OF the agonies caused by weak,
diseased or clogged-up kidneys by
using solvax, the new remedy that
quickly reaches the source Of all
kidney complaints.
II you suffer with pains in your
back and sides or have any signs o.
kidney or bladder trouble such as
rheumatic pains, puffy swellings UNI
der the eyes or In the feet and an
kles. II you are nervous, tired ami
rundown, or bothered with urinary
disorders, solvax will quickly and
surely relieve you Of your misery.
solvax Is the most potent remedy
yet devised for Kidding the system OF
uric acid and driving out all the pot
sonous impurities which cause such
troubles. II n~eutralizes, dissolves and
makes the kidneys sift out all the
uric acid and poisons left by the
blood. and renders the kidneys and
urinary organs clean. vigorous and
healthy.
Tallman & Co. the popular drug
gists, say that no medicine ought to
be paid for unless It does the user
some good. They therefore sell Sol
wax under a positive guarantee TO
quickly relieve the worst cases Of kid
ney trouble or refund the money. Try
Solvax today and II YOU cannot see
and feel a decided change for the
better Just 10 to Tallman & Co. and
tell them you want your money back
and they will return 1t without ques-
ton. This is the strongest argument
that can be offered in behalf Of any
medicine,

AN EASY WAY TO END
CATARRH FOREVER
SIMPLE HOME TREATMENT DE-
STROYS GERMS OF THIS
DANGEROUS DISEASE.

The reason why so many people
who suffer from Catarrh never seem
able to get cured is that they are con-
~tinually seeking the momentary re-
lief of sprays, douching, greasy
creams. ointments, etc. Such things
do open up the swollen nostrils and
clear the head temporarily, besides
stopping for a while the disgusting
blowing, hawking, splitting and chok-
ing, but they never cure. To drive
out Catarrh for good you have got to
get down to Its real cause. Catarrh
full of catarrh germs thrown off by
one person and absorbed by another
end when the system does fail to
throw off such germs they find per-
manent Judgment in the nose, throat
and head and multiply rapidly.
The germs of catarrh can be best
destroyed by inhaling the pure medi-
Gated air of Hyomei pronounced
High-o-me.) This splendid and pow
erful combination OF oil Of Eucalyp-
tus with other healing agents has a
wonderful germicidal action. You
breathe It's air into your nose, throat
and lungs by means Of a small hard
rubber inhaler which Tallman & Co.
and other leading druggists here in
Pendleton and vicinity supply with
every treatment. This medicated ali
is certain death to the germs Of Ca
tarrh and drives them completely out
OF your system and when the germs
are destroyed the catarrh with all its
disagreeable symptoms will stop. Ev-
en- two or three minutes use will give
refreshing relief. while, IL you will
use It two or three times a day for
a few weeks It will completely BAN
lsh catarrh and every symptom Of
eatarrh. As Hyomei is pleasant to
breathe and Is always sold by drug
glsts everywhere with a positive guar
antee Of successful results or money
back, surely no Catarrhal sufferer
should go long before trying this sim
pie home remedy.
