AN EASY WAY TO END
CATARRH FOREVER
Simple Home Treatment Destroys 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 continu-
ally seeking the momentary relief Of
sprays, douehing, greasy creams, oint-
ments, etc. Such things do open up
the swollen nostrils and clear the head
temporarily, besides stopping for q
whilo the disgusting blowing, hawking,
splitting and choking, but they never
cure. To drive out Catarrh for ood
You have got to get down to its real
cause. Catarrh is a germ disease. The
air is always full Of catarrh germs
thrown off by one person and absorbed
by another and when the system does
fail to throw off such germs they find
permanent Judgement in the nose,
throat and head and multiply rapidly.
The germs Of catarrb can be best
destroyed by inhaling the pure medi-
Gated air Of Hyomei pronounced High
ome). This splendid and powerful
combination Of oil Of Eucalyptus with
other healing agents has a wonderful
germicidal action. You breathe its air
into your nose, throat and lungs by
means or n small hard rubber inhaler
which Daniel ! Fry and other leading
druggists here in Salem and vicinity
supply with every treatment. This
modicated air is certain death to the
germs Of Catarrh and drives them com
plctcly out Of your system and when
the germs are destroyed the catarrh
with all its disagrecabIe symptoms will
stop. Even two or three minutes use
will give refreshing relief, while, if
You will use il tow or thdee times a
day for few weeks 10 will completely
Danish eatarrh and every symptom Of
catarh. As Hyomei is pleasant to
breathe and ia always sold by drug
giSts everywhere with a positive guar
antee Of successful results or money
back, surely no catarh sufferer should
go long before trying this simple home
remedy.

SENT TO
COUNTY CLERKS
FOR VOTERS LISTS
Under New System Names To
Be Checked OFF and Not
Written In Poll Book

Secretary Of State Olcott today
completed the forwarding of supply
of blanks to the county clerks for max
ing up the voters lists and poll books
for the primary election occurring May
10, 1916. The law provides the coun-
ty clerks shall TRANSMIT to the election
boards typewriter lists, in duplicate,
of the voters in each precinct arranged
in alphabetical order. To meet this re-
quirement forms for each letter of the
alphabet, for TIE overflow from any
letter and for listing voters sworn in,
as well as appropriate covers, contain
ing the oaths of the election boards
and summary of voters are provided By
the state, and it is made the duty OF
the secretary of state unler the law to
have the same printed and an adequate
supply sent to each county clerk. I'm
der former laws the counties furnished
what was called the precinct registers
These were appropriately ruled blank
books for listing alphabetically the vot.
ers as they registered in t6e several
precincts, and were delivered over ia
the election boards Just preceding any
election. The blanks furnished under
the existing laws when filled out and
appropriately arranged also comprise
the Doll books. Whenever a registered
voter presents himself at the polls fol
voting at any election the clerk merely
enters the number of his ballot oppo
site his name AMI checks him off afte,
having voted This dispenses with tho
old poll book in which the clerk wa.
required to write the name of the votel
as well. The county clerks will be re-
quired to make up voters list pre
eeding each election, while heretofore
the precinct register being independent
OF the poll book answered for a full
biennial period.
These supplies are sent out at tn,
beginning of the registration period il
order to enable the county clerks t.
write up their precinct voters lists Il
the registrations are made. if they 3,
desire. Voters can register for the pri
mary election to be held May 10th a
any time prior to April 10Th, as the ex
isting laws pertaining to registration
of voters provide that the registration
books shall close for periol of q
days prior to any general election.

Local Checker and
Players Show Up Well

Either the Salem chess and checker
players are right in line to become
world champions, or Harry Lieberman,
who ranks as the fourth best checker
player in the world, did not play the
game to the limit at the exhibition
game given at the Commercial Club
last evening.
In preliminary games with /. Green
baum, the champion won two games,
lost one to Mr.. Greenbaum, and PLAYED
one draw.
DIR. W. H. Byrd and James Walton,
Jrp are now in the world champion
class as chess players, both winning in
a game with Mr., Liebeman.
The first game in which II of Salem IS
best players were in, resulted in draws
with /. Greenbaum and j. L. Peetz
with defeats for the other Salem play
ers. In the second setting, the cham
pion lost to Greenbaum and played a
draw with Bryant and Peetz.
In the blindfolded exhibition play
ing, the first game was lost to Bryant.
In the second blindfolded game, Mr..
Lieberman was winning against Bryant,
but was unable to remember the board
later in the game, giving it to Bryant.
The Salem players are not quite
decided as to whether they are now
in the class Of famous world champion
players, or whether last night was just
an off night for the champion. Among
those taking a hand in the game were
Messrs. Bryant, Greenbaum, Givens,
Ryan, Hill, Peetz, Reynolds, Beefs,
IIucheson and Plauts. DR.. BYRD and
James Walton, Jr.,. played only in
chess.
