Worse Cases Quickly Cureed by Breathing,Hyomei. Guaranteed by A. Calboun Doyle & Co. There is really not the slightest excuse for anyone having catarrh now that Hyomei is so widely known and so easily obtained; The worse cases of catarrh are quickly oured, simply by breathing the remedy through the pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit. Ufied in this way for a few minutes four times a dav, every particle of air that reaches the nose, throat and lungs is laden with germ-killing and health-giving Hyomei. The sale of old fashioned stomach remedies for catarrh has beenireduced to almost nothing since the introduc tion of Hyomei. A. Calhoun Doyle & Co. will tell you that their sales on this out-of-date line have fallen of at least two-tbirds Id the last few years, while the demand for Hyomei has Increased as its curative power be came more widely known. The complete outfit, consisting of a neat pocket inhaler, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei costs only one dollar, while extra bottles can be obtained for 50 cents, making Hyomei the most economical, as well as the most reliable method for cur ing catarrh. A. Calhoun Doyle & Co. positively guarantees a cure when Hyomei is used in accordance with directions or they will refund the purchase price. Oat In the Open. Senator Tlllman added the follow ing on Tuesday to what he had said in Iiis "Address to the People" rela tive to the campaign meetings: "I see by the papers that they are hav ing the campaign meetings in the court houses, which is an additional reason why I'm not going to join the campaign party. It would not be justice to myself after the' great strain that has been made on me dur ing the present session to speak inside of houses of any kind. I would not stand it. Beside all the campaign I have ever attended were out in the open, where they ought to be. It is better for both people and speakers. Cured of Brights Disease. Geo. A. Sherman, Lisbon Red Mills, Lawrence Co., N. Y., writes. "I had kidney disease for many years and had been treated by physicians for twelve years; had taken ? well known kidney medecine and other remedies that were recommended but got no relief until I began using Foley's Kidney Cure. The first half bottle relieved me and four bottles have cured me of this terrible disease. Before I began taking Foley's Kidney Cure I had to make water every fifteen minuies, day and night, and passed a brick-dust sub stance. I believe 1 would have died .if I had not taken Foleys Kidney Cure. A. C* Dukes. Denounces Hearst. Senator Bailey denounced Hearst's methods In his Cosmopolitan Maga zine story of The Senate.

BEW EEIIGI0U8 SECT. Started by .a Negro in a New York City. It is said that a peculiar religious sect Id getting a foothold in the city of Middletown, N. Y. It is the Church of God and Saints of Christ and is fourjded on lines similar to Alexander Dowle's Church of Zlon, and like that it has a head who pro claims himself God's prophet and mouthpiece. "William S. Crowdy, of Washington, D. 0., is the prophet. The church knows no color line, but as the prophet is a negro the majority of converts are from the negro race. A, branch of the church was organ ized in this city some weeks ape! by an intelligent negro, John H. Allen, from Clover, Va.. and already it has made fourteen black and ODe wb'.te convert. The keeping of tbe Ten Commandments and observing of Saturday as tbe Sabbath are the strong points of tbe Church of Gcd. Prophet Crowdy, if be had a ,white skiu, would much resemble Alexar der Dowie, and bis methods appear as if copipd from Dowle's. He publishes a newspaper, tbe Weekly Prcpbet, which is tbe official organ of thf Cburch of God, and its chief end seems to be to urge tbe members tc send in contributions to Crowdy. Members of the church bave tc contribute 10 per cent of their earn logs, which, with ail other moneyt collected, goes to Prophet Crowdy. Tbe members are told that Crowdy it omnisccient and that nothing tbey dc escapes bis observation. Particular stress is laid on.the fact ,tbat It is im possible to fool the prophet in regard to the earnings of the followers, and It is suggested that if any of tbem tried to "nig,J in their 10 per cent contribute 28 swifi- punishment would follow. The prophet has a scheme of building a boly city at Belleville, Va., similar to Dowle's Z!on city.. The other colored churches of this city are up in arms against the Church of God. _ "Buy Oil^'rom the Barrel. Don't pay 81.50 a gallon for cann ed oil, which ought to cost but 60 cents a gallon.

Walsh acknowledged that this was true, but his counsel termed the company a "trust," and argued that Walsh did not bave to pay foi goods.bought from a trust any more than he would have to pay a gamb ling debt.

Average Annual Sales o1 of merit appeal to you? 1 ottle is a Tea Cent* package of Grove's 1 ALMOST AS COMMON IN SUMMER AS SN WINTER. While the damp, cold, changing weather of Winter intensifies the pains and other disagreeable symptoms of Rheumatism, it is by no means a winter disease exclusively. Through the long months of Summer its wandering pains and twitch ing nerves are felt by those in whose blood the uric acid, which produces the disease, has accumulated. Rheumatism is a disease that involves the en tire system. Its primary cause results from the failure of the eliminative organs, the Liver, Kid neys and Bowels, to carry out of the system the urea, or natural refuse matter. This coming in contact with the different acids of the body forms uric acid which is taken up and absorbed by the blood. This acid causes fermentation of the blood, making it sour and unfit for properly nourishing the body, and as this vital stream goes to every nook and corner of the body, the poison is distrib uted to all parts. The nervous system weakens from lack of rich, pure blood, the skin becomes fe verish and swollen, the stomach and digestion are affected, the appetite fails and a general diseased condition of the entire system is the result. Not on1 ? is Rheumatism the most painful of all diseases, with its swollen, stiff joints, throbbing muscl'... md stinging nerves, but it is a formidable and dangerous trouble. If the uric acid is allowed to remain in the blood, and the disease becomes chronic, chalky deposits form at the joints,, and they are rendered immovable and stiff, and the patient left a helpless cripple for life. Every day the poison remains in the system the disease gets a firmer hold. The best time to get rid of Rheumatism is in warm weather; because then the blood takes on new life and the skin is more active and can better assist in the elimination of the poisons. With the proper remedy to force the acid out of the blood, and at the same time build up and strengten the Liver, Kidneys, Bowels and other organs of the body, Rheumatism can be'per manently cured. External applications relieve the pain and temporarily reduce the inflam mation, and for this reason are desirable, but they cannot have any effect on the disease. The blood is poisoned and the blood must be treated before a cure can be effected. S. S. S., a remedy made from roots, herbs and barks, is the best treatment for Rheuma tism. It goes into the blood and attacks the disease at its head, and by neutralizing the acid , and driving it out, and building up the sour blood so it can supply nourishment and strength to every part of the body, it cures Rheumatism permanently. S. S. S. is the only safe cure for the disease; being purely vegetable, it will not injure the system in the least, as do those medicines which contain Potash or some other mineral ingredient. S. S. S. tones up every part of the body by its fine tonic properties., While cleansing the blood of all poisons it builds up the> appetite and digestion, soothes the excited nerves, rev* duces all inflammation, relieves pain and completely 1 cures Rheumatism in every form?Muscular, Inflamma tory, Articular or Sciatic. If you are worried with tue nagging pains of Rheumatism, do not wail: for it to be come chronic, but begin the use of S. S. S. and purge the blood of every particle of the poison. Write for our book on Rheumatism, and ask our 'physicians for any advice you wish. We make no charge for either. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY, ATLANTA, CA. Last Summer I had a severo attaok of Inflamma tory Rheumatism in the knees, from -which I waa nnable to leave my room for several months. I was treated by two doctors and also tried differ ent kinds of liniments and modioines which seemed to relieve me from?pain for awhile, but at the same time I was not any nearer getting well. One day while reading a paper I saw an adver tisement of S. S. S. for Rheumatism. I deoidect to give it a trial, which I did at once. After I had. taken three bottles I felt a great deal better, and, I continued to take it regularly until I was en tirely cured. I now feel better than I have for years. CHAS. E.

BAD HEALTH. Worry, Overwork, Hasty Eating, Ex cessive Use of Liquors, Loss of Sleep, Neglect of Nature's Calls, These Bring on the Deadly Bright's Disease. Thousands Die of it Every Year. Kidney disease is the enemy we have most to fear as a result of the feverish restlessness of modern civilization. It is a treacherous enemy, working out its deadly effect under cover of the most trifling symptoms. The first indication of changes in the urine, frequent head aches, digestive troubles, should be the signal for prompt remedial measures. Prickly Ash Bitters is a kidney remedy of the greatest merit; it is soothing, healing and strengthening, quickly re lieves the aching or soreness that always appears in advanced stages, checks the progress of the disease and through its excellent cleansing and regulating effect in the stomach, liver and bowels, it brings back the strength and ruddy glow of vigorous health. Accept no substitute. Insist on having1 the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the large figure 3 in red on the front label. Sold Everywhere, Price $1.00 per bottle. | J. G. Wannamaker Mfg.
