''Read-not to contradict and
COMPUTE, nor to believe and take for
granted, but to zVeigh and consid-
eY.'-Lord Bacon.

A new application of the famous six
teen to one ratio seems to have been
found in the federal income tax. Eleven
northern states exclusive of New York
which pays by far the highest amount
of any state, pay just about sixteen
times as much as the eleven southern
states which constitute 'the solid
south" With the Southern Democrats
dominating congress, it is not surpris
ing that much of the income from the
north is being diverted to the south.
That reminds us of our own automo-
bile license fees, which have habit
of finding outlets that do not benefit
the people who pay them.

RELIEVES THE WORST
CASES OF CATARRH
Think SHyomei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered"

Do not try to cure catarrh by using
sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured
in that manner. The only way in
which this too common disease can be
fully relieved is through direct ap-
plication to the affected parts that
will kill the bacili of catarrh and pre-
vent their growth
Breathing air of Hyomei is the only
known method of treatment that can
really accomplish this. 1t is the sim
plest, most pleasant, and probably the
most reliable treatment for catarrh
that has ever been discovered.
The complete outfit is inexpensive
and consist of an inhaler, dropper and
sufficient Hyomei to last several
weeks. This will effect instant relief
in ordinary cases, but for chronic and
deep-seated cases of catarrh, longer
use may be necessary, and then an
extra bottle of Hyomei, can be obtain
ed for a trifling sum. 1t is not alone
the best cit might be called the only
method of treating catarrh, but it is
also the most economical.
r. Hodgnis has so much confidence
in teh power of Hyomei to relieve
catarrh, that he will for limited time.

Kansas, with it's seventy-Seven thou

automobiles. To the countryman they
are picture of arrogance, of wealth
