the Germans are attempting to enlist
the sympathies of Flemish element In

to recruit more traitors to Belgium
by offering commissions in the pro-
posed "Reichswacht"
The German governor OF Belgium
has offered places in the so-caIIed
"guard" to Flemish prisoners taken
by the Germans in the early days OF
the war
Although the Belgian. government
Is certain the invaders will be unable

SPANISH INFLUENZA
Is EPIDEMIC HERE
ApVERTIsEMEN1
Many Cases Develop Into
Deadly Pneumonia. Easier
to Prevent Than Cure. How
to Avoid.

The constant daily increase Of
Spanish Influenza reported by local
physicians shows clearly that many
people are failing to take the sim
avoid infection Fer, while Influ-
enzA, after its developmenl, is some
times difficult to cure, it Is an easily
preventable disease.
The best plan is to begin treatment
before the first symptom starts. For
no other disease will develop so
quickly or spread Sc rapidly You
may feel hne today-be sick tomor-
row and lose a week or more Of
work You will indeed be fortunate
II pneumonia does net develop.
The air today is full of Influenza
germs Every breath you take is
likely to draw them into your nose
and throat You can prevent the
they spread throughout your body.
There Is probably no safer or surer
way to do this than to go to the
nearest drug store and get one of
the famous Hycmei Inhaling Outfits
consisting OF bottle Of the pure oil
Of Hyomei and a little vest-pocket,
hard rubber inhaling device into
which q few drops Of the Oil Of
Hyomei are poured.
Just breathe this Oil cf Hyomei
deep into your nose, throat and
lungs and every particle OF air that
enters your breathing organs will be
charged with an antiseptic, germ
killing balsam that will absolutely
destroy the germs OF Influenza that
have found lodgment there.
You can't do this tco often No
ordinary night and morning gar
Cling or throat spraying will be suf-
dcient SO long as during the day you
come in constant contact with infsc-
ticE- The Hyomei inhaler Is small
and can be conveniently carried IN a
handbag or vestpOcket Every half
hour or SO throughout the day take
Il OUT and draw a few breaths of its
pure healing air into your nose and
throat BY doing this you can pre-
vent infection and check the further
spread Of the disease even though
you are coming in direct contact
with it This is an inexpensive
treatment as the Inhaler will last a
lifetime and further supplies OF the
on Of Hyomei can be had at any
drug store for a few cents.
NOTE: Oil of Hyomei, SO strong
ly recommended above for the pre-
Yention of Spanish Influenza Is not
A new discovery but is the applicR-
tIon OF an cid and time-tFied treat
been a standard in the treatment Of
catarrh aud colds for almost twen-
~ years and is sold by druggists

A fairyIand Mine.

To the Mineralogist the Copper Queen mine of Bisbee, Ariz., has been for many years kind of fairyiand, yielding rare treasure in copper and lime minerals, of much variety and marvellous beauty of specialization and coloring. A recently opened cavern or grotto, filled with etalactites and stalagmites of delicate green and blue tints, was brought to the notice of Dr. 10. o. Hovey before destruction by the miners. and this made possible the transfer of the section of the forma- fion that is now set up among the wonders of the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The grotto thus preserved, in space 14 feet high and 10 feet square, is lined with some 50 boxes of carefully col lected and restored cave material, the outside being roughly built up of lime stone blocks. One stalagmite of the mine cave had been deposited to q height of nearly 14 feet by water drip ping for an estimated period of 25,000 years.

WELL KNOWN FORT WORTH BUSINESS MAN
 IS GIVEN SURPRISE
MT. Custer Says, Il Never Used a Tonic in My Life That Gave Such Satisfactory Results as Pep
 Systemic Pills.'

MT. James F. Custer, proprietor of the Custer Printing Co.,, 9O6 E. Wealth. erford St., Fort Worth, has the fol- lowing to say about Pep Systemic Pills:
 "Noticing in the papers that Rem fro had new iron tonic called Pep Pills. made up my mind that woud try one bottle. have taken on- ly one bottle of Pep Pills and wish to say that 1 have received fine results from that one bottle. I neved used any proprietary medicine in my life that has given such satisfactory re- suits and in such short time, as Pep Pills. Another thing l liked them is that they are easy to take and not leave any disagreeable aftereffects like some preparations. My stomach trouble has left me entirely and l have fine apeptite and can now eat almost anything. l am feeling stronger and better now than have for long time. 1 heartily recommend Pep Pills to anyone and believe they are all that are claimed for them. l might add that 1 have gained five pounds in weight, too.
 "I have taken number of tonics, but none of them seemed to suit my easel as they never seemed to do much good. My blood has been in bad shape for several years, and have tried many old-fashioned blood tonies to regain my strength, but have never noticed any real benefit before taking these pills. But now l feel also like different person and am glad to give Pep Pills the credit"
