HOW TO PRONOUNCE HYOMEI. THE BOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. TELL OF THIS REMARKABLE TREATMENT THAT CCRES CATARRH WITHOUT STOMACH DOSING. | “While all our customers who have used Hyomei agree that it is remark-1 ably successful in curing catarrh and otner diserses of the air passages," | says the Holthouse Drug Co., “yet there has been considerable diversity of opinion as to how the name is pronounced. Hyomei is pronounced just as if it were spelled ‘high o-me,’ < with the accent on the first syllable. A great many come to our store and instea 1 of asking for Hyomei, tell us they want a package of the treatment for catarrh that we are selling on a guarantee. While the cl r<s know what they mean, and all of our clerks will give them Hyomei, yet we want! every one to know how to pronounce: the name of Hyomei, so that they may run nochanee of getting anything but Hyomei, no matter where they go. It is nature’s true cure for catarrhal troubles. It kills the germs of this disease, soothes aad heals the irritared mucous membrane, and effectually drives all catarrhal poisons from the system. All the stomach dosing in the world can do no lasting good in the treatment of catarrh unless the nose and throat are free from catarrhal microbes. There is no stomach doeiug with Hyomei; just breathe it. We have so much confidence in the value of the treatment, that we are selling it with the understanding that we will return the money if it fails to cure. All Democrat readers know that we do exactly as we agree,”

IS SERIOUS - Condition of Mrs. Theodore Droppieman J J - Operated on Yesterday at Fort Wayne for Removal of Cancer. f i : * | r Dr. C. S. Clark of this city inJ formed us this morning that the operation was preformed upon Mrs. Theodore Droppieman yesterday ; at the St. Joseph hospital at Fort Wayne, Dr. Rosenthal assisting, and as far as the operation was concerned was a thorough success ,in every manner but however left , the patient in a very weakened i condition. The operation was started at eleven o'clock and was not finished until one, when leaving the patient under the influence of either something over two hours and from the length of the operation and her already weakened condition leaves the patient in a very serious condition. When Dr. Clark left last evening Mrs. Droppieman had not yet fully revived from the effects of the anesthetic. The doctor stated that every vistage of the j cancerous growth was removed and , if she was strong enough to survive j the operation may in time enjoy . better health than for several years. (

DO YOU KNOW ? That gentle spring is rather coy and side tracks every attempt at warmth. That the spring openings drew more spectators than prospective purchasers. That the Standard Oil company is not losing any sleep over the repeated drops in the price of oil. That the spring birds came in abundance but lost in flight the bundle of warm weather they were transporting from sunny climates. That the gas companies would welcome a plan by which they could control the sun and measure its heat and light through gas meters. That some men are so sure of their proposition that they are blind to the possibility of it turning out any other way that on which they have figured. Notice.
