Christmas present." Stockton was Mr. Hich
born’s birthplace and here he grew to young
manhood. During a recent visit to Boston he
and his wife selected of the electrical firm of
McKenney & Waterbury the fixtures for the
house and last Monday Wilbur C. Magune
finished wiring the same. The sisters much
appreciate the very illuminating gift. The
lights are a joy and comfort and anyone an
ticipating having his house wired will find Mr.
Magune a most satisfactory workman and in
genious in the extreme in the manipulation
of his “snake" through the walls of a house.
His insulating is very carelully done, too, he
having worked for several years in Boston,
where the building ordinances are more rigid
ly enforced than in Maine, He takes up no
floors, only an occasional board in attic, closet,
or corner of room, under carpet, where it
causes no injury, consequently the house is
little disturbed during the process of putting
the lights in, which is a great consideration to
the busy housewife. We most heartily recom
mend Mr. Magune to those in need of wiring,
as his work fulfills all insurance require
ments.

OLD AND NEW WAY
TO TREAT CATARRH
Breathing a Germ Killing Air Endorsed By
Actual Results.
The discovery of Hyomei hat wrought a
wonderful change in the treatment of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medicines ordi
narily employed in the cure ‘of this disease
were drugs, spray-, lotions, etc. In some in
stances they benefited, but the improvement '
was not lasting..
With Hyomei you take into the air passages j
of your throat* and head a balsamic air that
goes into the minutest cells, and should effect
ually kill all germs and microbes of catarrh.
Its purpose is to enter the blood with the oxy
gen, killing the germs in the blood, and restore
health to the whole system. Many astonish
ing testimonials have been received from those
who have been helped by Hyomei.
A complete outfit is inexpensive and in
cludes an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyo
mei for several weeks’ treatment.
Perhaps the strongest evidence that can be
given to doubters, is the tact that A. A. Howes
& Co. have so much faith in Hyomei that they
sell every package under a positive guarantee
to refund the money if it does not relieve.

• WHAT CATARRH IS *
It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott’s Bmulsion which is a
medicinal food and a building-tonic, free
fromalcohol or any harmful drugs. Try it.
