» Without An Operation Wonderful Healing of Rupture. How a New Jersey Man Got Rid of a Severe, Obstinate, Right Inguinal Hernia Without the Slightest Trou hie. Below is a picture of Eugene M. Pullen, a well-known carpenter of Manasquan, New Jersey. If you could Fee him at his work, part cularly when he bandies heu v timber, jumps and climbs around like a youth, you would scarcely 'nu.glue that he had formerly been a ft 11c to J with a rup ture. not the bowel scon breaks through the sewed-ui opening and protrudes worse ihau ever. I A ■1 t Am \ i- - i'p ■ « l wJnifer Ruptured iu Right Side. At an early age, Eugcte Pullnu -as an express driver. Hs handled rail road baggage One day after deliver ing a heavy trunk on an uppei fioor he felt a pain in the right groin. The suffering increased and it was long before the young man noticed the swelling The doctor told young Pullen that he was ruptured and that he must either '.vear a truss throughout life or submit to a drastic operation. All sur geons know that hernia operations, with anaesthetics, etc., ire dangerous; they may end fatally. Moreover, it is a well established fact that many rupture operations are not successful; Afraid of Operation. Like most others, Mr. Pullen declin ed to take the risks of an operation; the expense and loss of time had tobe considered, too. Hoping he might get a little better encouragement, he went to another physician who. to his sor row, save him even less hope. It was pointed out to the young man that un less the rupture were perfectly held all the time or the surgeon's knife successfully used, he might expect an increase or doubling in tin rupture with further compilerions, or the dieaded strangulated hernia which k;';s so many ruptured people V id ini of Trusses. The victim bought a :.-ubs, a hard spring-like affair, the best he couid get. it tortured him. He tried an other—still no relief. He was com pelled to give up his express busi ness. The hard tasks of ordinary men were forbidden him. He became an insurance agent, in which position he did not need to do bodily work. For six years Mr. Pullen dragged around using various trusses, hard, elastic, etc-, with never any content ment. One day bis mother told him something she had just found out. It was a simple and easy thing for him to do. He lost no time. Discarded His Truss. Relief came at once; he almost for got that he had any rupture. After ward came a cure—a complete heal ing—and, although years have passed and Mr. Pu.llcn is an energetic car penter, working on buildings climb ing over roofs, lifting lumber and such like, he is absolutely free from the old hernia. He knows he is com pletely, lastingly cured There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble —comfort and contentment from the very outset. He is a strong, cheerful minded man.

The valuable information which Mrs. Pullen read In a newspaper many years ago anc gave to her son. together with further important facts, will be sent free to any reader of this who writes to Eugene M. Pullen. 118 Marcellus avehue. Manasquan, N. J, enclosing a stamp for reply.

Webb Forrest, of McClellands vlUe wants to be Road Supervisor of White Clay Creek hundred. At the meeting of the Levy Court yesterday afternoon Mr. Smith presented a let ter from Forrest. He said he Is an Independent Republican and has friends In his end of the hundred. Mr. Burris: "I am opposed to a man who has no politics." Mr. Smith: ''I move the communi cation be referred to the Republican majority." President Craves: "Without objec tion the communication is so refer red." Upon motion of Mr. Burris, $8 was turned over from L. J. Faulkner for old lumber sold from Market street bidge. From the Diamond State Telephone Company $60 was received for rent of conduit under the Market street bridge over the Brandywine. Estimates were read from the Wil mington Gas Company for piping and installing fixtures in the Eleventh and Third street bridge bouses. Mr. Bur ris said that oil has gone so high in price that the committee on bridges decided to install gas. Mr. Smith opposed the installing of anything new at the present time. Mr. Burris said he could why Mr. Smith was always harping on the city of Wilmington. This city has been paying 70 per cent, of the taxes, he said, and under the new as not see sessment he supposed Wilmington will pay 90 per cent, of the taxes. Mr. Smith replied that he favored improvements, but Wilmington has spent over $7,000 on bridges already this year. "I must correct Mr. Smith again." said Mr. Burris. "We have not spent over $1,000 thl- vear. but we paid $6,700 of old bills contracted by the former Levy Court." Mr. Burris presented a resolution which was seconded by Mr. Gooding and adopted: 'Whereas, This Levy Court of New Castle county is being compelled to furnish certain incandescent electric lamps for the lighting of Third street bridge, which this court believes are included in the proposal which was presented for the lighting of the said bridge by the Wilmington & Philadel phia Traction Company, and which lamps the said company now refuses to furnish, therefore be it "Resolved. That the committee on bridges be and is hereby directed to ascertain the reason the Wilmington & Philadelphia Traction Company are refusing to furnish certain lamps which this court believes are included in the proposal for lighting Third street bridge." As stated In THE EVENING JOUR NAL yesterday the following resolu tion was adopted : "Whereas, The Levy Court of New Castle county is informed of the fact that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany proposes to increase considerab ly the freight rates on stone for road purposes, such increase affecting shipments of stone in this county, and "Whereas. The Levy Court of New Castle county has contracted for and anticipates inviting proposals for the construction of several miles of road immediately, the cost of which will he considerably over Two Hundred Thousand Dollars, the cost per mile being based on the present freight rate, it will be impossible to comply with the provisions of the act under which the aforesaid roads were pro vided for if the present rate is creased, therefore be it "Resolved, That the Levy Court of New Castle county petition the Penn sylvania Railroad Company to main tain the present freight rate on stone for road purposes, until such time as the roads provided for at present constructed, and "Be it further copy of these resolutions be forward ed to the proper officials of the rail road company and if necessary a com in are Resolved. That a mittee of the Levy Court confer with these officials at once." The three Ty-Bell sisters, the most r ^ n F of aerialists, will be seen in " ilmington on Friday, May 2, with Ringling Brothers' circus in the sen sational and dangerous "Human But terfly Act" which created so much wonder in Europe last winter. Dui ing their recent four of England and the continent of Europe they received the biggest salary which up to that time was ever paid for a singing act. On this, their first tour of America, they are receiving even a larger amount. They are worth every cent of It. Nothing like this act was ever seen before. Various Inferior ances have masqueraded as specialties, with the assistance of crude spectacular effects. They were merely common iron-jawed stunts of no interest whatever when analyzed. This is an act which is entrancing in an ethereal way, thrilling because of the danger entailed and made mar velously beautiful by means of a bat tery of electric spot lights and cal ciums.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its nat ural color dates back to grandmoth er's time. She kept her hatr beau tifully darkened, glossy and abun dant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streak ed appearance this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home Is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays skilled chem ists do this better than ourselves By asking at any drug store for the ready-to-use product—called "Wy eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy"—you will get a large bottle for about 60 cents. Some druggists make FINE TALENT FOR GEIßEL CONCERT Some of the »est talent to be had from the Barnes Entertainment Bu reau of Philadelphia has been secui ed for the Geibel Chorus concert to be given In Epworth M. E. Church on Tuesday evening. April 29. Choir master George E. King has engaged Ethel Nelthammer, a wonderful girl soprano, known as "The Young Tet razzini." and Alexander Zenker, an equally wonderful boy violinist, known as "The Young Kublelk." Both of these voung artists come through the Barnes Bureau and are said to be marvel* in musical ability. Miss Nei thammer captivates her audience by her bird-like voice and people wonder at the exquisite purity of her tones. Young Mr. Zenker, although only about 16 or 17 years old, handles the violin like a master and makes the. instrument almost breathe with life. This will be their first appearance In Wilmington, and they are expected to prove a sensation. Director King has received word from the Barnes Bureau that the young artists will bring their own accompanist with them. She is Miss Dorothy Neeley, of Philadelphia, and Is 16 years of age. This young per former promises to startle the audi ence with her piano work, as she will be heard In two Instrumental roles besides accompanying the other performers from Philadelphia. An added attraction will be recita tions by Miss Irene Fulton, the well known local elocutionist. The Geibel Chorus itself will be the great feature. One hundred'young singers will compose the chorus, and their singing will simply be wonder ful. SOCIAL AT CESTREVILLE.

If you have catarrh, usually dlcated by snuffling, stopped-up head, droppings In throat, and morning choking, there is an irritated state of the mucous membrane which affords an ideal lodgment and culture medium for disease germs, especially those of consumption.

The unusual way in which Hyomei is sold druggists is the best evid ence of confidence and should dispel all doubts as to its curative properties. They are auth orized to refund the purchase price to anyone whom Hyomei fails to benefit so you do not risk a cent in testing its healing virtues. A com plete outfit costs but $1.00.
