the recent rainstorm flooded the
farm, raising the water level several
inches and allowing about one thous-
and of the biggest frogs to escape i'll
to the surrounding territory. This

David kalauokalani himself, who de-
clared that his venture was progress

appeared.
Most of the frogs which escaped
weighed between three and four
pounds and were practically ripe for
picking"
While as yet he has not sold any
frogs, Kalauokalani stated that If his
initial effort proves a success he will
go in for frog farming on big
scale. 1T costs nothing to raise them
and they bring good money on the
market. If it looks good, I'll ship
them to the coast, too remarked

of exercise, and rough sea caused most
of the cases.

CATARRH CAUSED BY A GERM

To cure catarrh so it won't come

authority, first drive from your body
the millions of germs that are flourish
ing in the inner recesses of your nose
and throat and are causing the dis

There is preparation which does
this called Hyomei pronounced High
o-me) Hyomei is a germ killing vap-
orized air formed from the purest oil
of Eucalyptus combined with other
healing and antiseptic ingredients. You
breathe Hyomei through the mouth and
nose by means of a little hard rubber
inhaler which druggists furnish with
it. This indicated germicidal air pen
etrates into every fold and crevice of
the mucous membrane of your nose
and throat, kills the catarrh germs
that lodge there, soothes, reduces and
heals the swollen inflamed mem

cure catarrh or that the money paid
for it will be refunded. S

(By J. w. Pegler.)

AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR.
TIERS, misunderstanding back

line of communications is constant
ly swelling artery vital to the life
of Sammy training here in the fields.
Sammy knows he gets IS ounces of
white bread every day but he doesn't
know much about where that bread
comes from. He gets clothing from
the quartermaster and his rations
from the company mess. If the sup
ply is plentiful and the quality good
Sammy doesn't bother his head much
about how it was brought up to him
But the auxiliary people know.
How Baking is Done
The bakers know they stood out
in the pen all day and tended the
field-ovens far from the infantry
training fields, to make the bread.
They unloaded the big sacks of Min
mesota flour from the railroad trucks
that ran right into the middle of the
bakery And they carefully slashed
the loaves right down the middle to
let out the gas before putting them
in the ovens. III
That little slashing operation looks
simple, yet it was decided on only af-
ter hours of study by the officer in
charge who wanted to save room in
the bread cars. Formerly each loaf
was slashed four times across the
top. When the crust formed the in
tersections of these slashes raised up
about an inch and the bread trans
port involved great many wasted
inches of space in the car. The new
slash is just as effective in releasing
the gas and it saves one-half of the
wasted space.
