BANISH CATARRH
Hyomei Will Cure You or Nothing
to Pay.
When you make up your mind to get
rid of disgusting Catarrh, follow this
advice:
Go to your druggist; ask him for
HYOMEI Outfit (pronounce it High
o-me). This outfit consists of a bottle
of HYOMEI (liquid), a hard rubber
pocket inhaler, a medicine dropper,
and full instructions for use. Pour a
few drops into the inhaler, and breath
it in a few minutes each day, accord
ing to directions.
HYOMEI cures Catarrh because it
reaches every nook, corner and
crevice of the membrane of the nose,
throat, and bronchial tubes, and kills
the germs of Catarrh. Stomach
dosing, sprays, douches, and ointments
don’t kill the germs, because they
don’t get where the germs are. HYO
MEI will cure Catarrh. It is guaran
teed, as the publisher of this paper
knows, to cure Catarrh, Coughs, Colds,
Sore Throat, and Bronchitis, or money
back. Refuse substitutes. If your
druggist does not sell it, we will send
you a complete outfit, charges prepaid,
for sl. Sample bottle mailed free upon
request. Address, Booth’s HYOMEI

(Continued from Page Three)
she found that he had attended school
regularly in a small town in the
middle part of the state where he had
lived until his father died four years
ago, and his mother moved to this
neighborhood to be near her married
sister. He was fairly well advanced
in arithmetic, geography and history.
Leia Bond was the prettiest little
creature —Vera had ever seen —
slender and graceful with deep violet
eyes shaded by black curling lashes, a
sweet mouth and a pure white com
plexion, of that fine ivory finish that
the sun and wind can not spoil. To
look at her she seemed made to find
life a joy, but when you looked into
her eyes, you saw depths of sadness,
her mouth had a droop at the corners
indicating a spirit that had missed
the hopebul buoyancy of youth.
She showed as the books she had
studied a dictionary, a fifth reader, a
history and arithmetic, that like Will
Hadden’s were not of recent date.
The books showed signs of having
been well studied. “You have attend
ed school a good deal?” Vera said,
“No, Miss Weston, I’ve been to
school very little,” was the answer.
“My father taught me. He was a
teacher, he came here for his health.
This school house was built for him.
After he died, I studied at home,
mother helped me all she could.”
At once Vera was drawn to the
girl. Like herself Leila had lost a
good father, this was a bond of
sympathy between them, then the
story of unhappiness —ill accordant
with youth—which the girl’s face so
plainly betrayed, awoke the young
teacher’s interest and friendship.
“Are you your mother’s only child?”
she asked.
“No Ma’am, I have a brother twelve
years old —and a baby sister —half
sister.”
“A half sister?”
Leila lowered her eyes.
“My mother married again,” she
said.
The tone of dejection—the under
tone of bitterness in the brief reply
gave Vera a key to the problem of
why a girl so young and lovely should
look so unhopeful.
A stepfather!—an uncongenial, un
kind one perhaps. She was soon to
learn that unkind was too mild a term
to express the cruel character of
Leila Bond’s stepfather.
CHAPTER XIII.
A number of the school children had
bought their lunches, and at noon re
cess, the home-made baskets and
buckets were taken out on the
grounds, and opened in the shade of
the spreading trees. Vera and Rachel
had a basket to themselves, Jeff and
Tilly sharing the contents of a tin
bucket. Leila Bond sat apart from the
others, but not far from the foot of a
big oak, where Vera and Rachel were
seated.
“Leila ain’t got a bite to eat, but a
piece of corn bread and an aig,” de
clared Rachel, who had been watching
her neighbor and had seen her open
the paper that held her scanty lun
cheon. “Her stepfather begrudges
every mouthful she eats, the goodness
knows, she earns her keep, let alone
the place belongin’ to her an’ little
Ben; when they’re aroun’ I’d offer her

a slice of pie an’ a piece of chick’n
es I wasn’t afeard ’twould hurt her
feelin’s. She’s proud—she is. She
don’t ever let on what a hard time she
has, but folks have done found it
out.”
A bucket of water had been brought
up from the spring by Will Hadden,
who handed a drink to Vera and one
to Rachel in a gourd, beautifully pol
ished on the outside, and snow white
within.
Will looked towards Leila —hesitat-
ed, then went up to her and silently
offered her a gourd of water. She
took it, and while she was drinking,
he dropped a paper-wrapped parcel be
side her, unnoticed by any but Rachel,
who called Vera’s attention to it.
Will had moved on with the water
to another group and Leila saw the
parcel and opened it. When she saw
its contents —some apples and a cake
—the color rushed to her face and
she started up and looked towards
Hadden. He did not turn his head,
and she sat down again. Presently,
she began eating an apple, with evi
dent enjoyment. Rachel looked at
Vera, and smiled.
“They are sweethearts,” she said,
“but Leila’s afeard to speak to him.
Her stepfather told her, he would
beat her if she did.”
“Beat her?”
“Oh! he does beat her. He struck
her with the hoe handle ’bout a month
ago, and nearly knocked her down.
He was goin’ to strike her agin, but
Will Hadden was passin’ and he saw
him and snatched the hoe from him
and broke the handle over his head.
Ole Craig got his gun an’ fired at Will,
but he didn’t hit him. He swore he’d
kill Will Hadden though, if he ever
come nigh the house again. He
wouldn’t a let Leila come to school,
only the trustees told him he’d be
reported if he didn’t. She ain’t goin’
to stay long, I reckon. Craig thought
Will was gone to work on the railroad,
an’ he did want to go, but his mother
’posed it. He’s all she’s got, and she’s
a widder.”
Vera looked thoughtful.
“It would be better,” she said, “for
Leila to marry Will Hadden.”
“She can’t. Her stepfather won’t
let her. He says he’s her lawful gar
dern an’ she can’t marry without his
consent, till she’s twenty-one. He
says that’s the law, an’ he’ll shoot any
body what comes meddlin’ in his busi
ness. He’d do it too. Everybody’s
feared of him. Nobody don’t go to
the house, an’ Vera an’ her little
weakly ma never goes no where, not
even to church on big meetin’ days.”
“Where do they live?”
“They don’t live far from our house.
The road that goes to where they
lives, branches off from our road, ’bout
half way from here. I’ll show you
where it branches off this evenin’ but
its all growed up in bushes an’ their
place is all growed up too in weeds an’
bushes, an’ there’s woods all ’round
it. It’s er lonesome, lookin’ place.”
“What a home for such a girl!”
thought Vera. “Something must be
done to rescue her from such a life.”
Going home that afternoon, she
walked beside Leila and tried to get
the girl to talk to her. She did not
succeed very well. A life of constant
dread and restraint had induced in
Leila Bond a habit of shyness and re
pression. Sometimes, when spoken to
suddenly, she started with a frightened
look. When they reached the point
where the two roads diverged, Vera
said: “I hope you may be able to
bring your brother with you to school
tomorrow, but if he can not come, I

Mrs. Tempie Clark suffered for
years, before she found relief in that
popular, successful woman’s medicine,
Wine of Cardui.
Mrs. Clark, who lives in Timberville,
Miss., writes: “Cardui has been worth
more to me than a carload of silver.
If it had not been for Cardui, I would
have been dead. I love a dollar, but I
have never seen one that I do not
think as much of, as I do of a bottle
of Cardui. I now keep it in my house,
as regularly as I do coal oil or coffee,
and have done so for years.
“Some years ago I jumped off a
horse and had a mishap, and for about
four years after that I suffered in
tense agony. At last I was induced tc
try Cardui, which cured me, and now
I am well and happy.
“I am sure Cardui will cure other
sick ladies as it has me.”
Cardui is for women. It acts spe
cifically and in a natural manner or
the womanly system and has been
found to relieve pain and to restore
woman’s health.
If you are nervous, miserable, or
suffering from any form of female
trouble, try Cardui. What it has done
for other sick ladies it surely can do
for you. Sold by all first class drug
gists, with full directions for use.

COCA-COLA AND HEADACHE.
COCA-COLA has never relieved a
headache that could not have been re
lieved by a good cup of tea or coffee.
It is the caffeine contained in these
three drinks that is refreshing to the
nerves and relieves the headache and
yet you have heard people argue that
COCA-COLA must contain morphine,
whiskey or some other injurious drug
because it relieves headache. Well,
there are more ways of relieving tired,
weary nerves than by benumbing
them with cocaine, morphine, whis
key, bromide or coal tar remedies.
Tea, coffee and COCA-COLA relieve
headache by refreshing the nerves and
not by deadening them. In relieving
headache COCA-COLA is superior to
tea or coffee, not because it contains
more caffeine, for it contains only
about one-half as much, but because
COCA-COLA is free from tannic acid.
There is no necessity to argue, guess
or conjecture what COCA-COLA con
tains, or does not contain. It has been
analyzed by chemists of the National,
city and State governments as well as
by the professors of chemistry in the
leading universities, colleges and poly
technic schools. They all find that it
does not contain cocaine, whiskey,
morphine, opium, bromide or any nar
cotic drug. They find that it does con
tain about half as much caffeine as
tea and coffee. Copies of the above
analyses will be sent free to any read
er of this paper who has any doubt
whatever that COCA-COLA is not
what it is claimed to be- —a pure, harm
less, delicious, refreshing, temperance
drink. Address, The Coca-Cola Co.,
