DRUGLESS HEALING
The Hyomci Catarrh Remedy Is
Nature's Own Method.
You would not take a pill to heal a
burn, and no one should think of try
ing to cure catarrh, or head colds by

{The sensible way is to
medicate the air you
breathe with Hyomei.
This treatment goes at
once to the sore and con-1
gested membrane lining
the nose, and throat,
and makes a rapid and
lasting end of distress
ing catarrh, and similar
ailments.
Hyomei is nature's
true method of treating
all diseases affecting the
air passages you
breathe it. The Hyomei
complete outfit consists
of a neat hard rubber
Inhaler, easily carried in
the pocket, and a bottle
of Hyomei. This Is usu
ally sufficient for the or
dinary case. Chronic
and deep-seated trouble
may require a little
|V more of the liquid, in
IHH which case you can get
Man extra bottle of Hyo
mei at a trifling cost.
Hyomei is sold by
druggists everywhere,
and H. C. Kennedy guarantees to re
turn the money to any customer who
says It d)d not give satisfaction. If it
'cures the treatment is inexpensive. If
you are not benefited It costs abso-

BRUMBAUGH MAKES
QUESTIONER DIZZY
Man at Latrobe Handed Him Three
Interrogatories and Then Ran
Away From Him
GOT ANSWER IN MEETING
Westmoreland County Gives a Tre
mendous Greeting to the Re
publican Candidate
Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh, Repub
lican candidate for Governor, last night
made it plain as can be done in EnK
lish that he is his own master and
that he has no entangling alliances.
In the course of his campaigning
through Westmoreland county yester
day it became known that a scheme
to embarrass the candidate was under
way and last night when he went into
the theater at Latrobe to speak an
unknown person handed him a paper
containing three questions and then
disappeared.
If the people back of the scheme
expected the doctor to Ignore the ques
tions they were victims of a tremen
dous mistake, because he went right
on the stage and opened up his speech
with his answers. The replies, which
were delivered with a great deal of
force, evoked wild cheering and the
visit of Dr. Brumbaußh to Latrobe was
an ovation where his enemies had
planned to make him uncomfortable.
In addition to speaking at Latrobe
Dr. Brumbaugh and his campaign
party spoke In Greensburg. The La
trobe meeting, because of the effort to
heckle him. turned out to be the big
meeting.
Brumbaugh Hits Back
These are the questions and the an
swers:
"1. W as there anything in any way
connected with the circumstances sur
rounding your determination to be a
candidate for Governor that can or
will prevent you from living up to the
last promise of your personal platform
In the event of your election?"
Answer —"Absolutely no. In spite
of what my enemies say, 1 stand here
to-night to say to you absoiutelv this,
there is no influence or individual or
Kroup of individuals of any sort what
ever that have the least string, either
remote or direct, on me."
"2. Are you at the present time un
der any promise or obligation to any
person in Pennsylvania or elsewhere
that can in any way Interfere with
your absolute freedom in the gov
ernorship?" -
Answer—"Certainly not. Have you
ever read the oath or affirmation of
office which the Governor of this Com
monwealth must take? I have read
that and I not only could not, but i
would not under any circumstances
make any promise or pledge, or have
any promise or understanding what
ever with anybody as to what I shall
do if elected Governor of this Com
monwealth. I am eternally myself.
Do you get that?"
"3. Have you, yourself, or has any
person for you with your consent, ex
pressed or implied, made any agree
ment with the liquor interests, organ
ized or unorganized, to secure their
support of your candidacy in this cam
paign?"
Answer—"Certainly not. I have no
agreement with the liquor interests or
any other interests, to do or not to do
anything In this canvass or as Gov
ernor of your Commonwealth.
I'lfe Should Tell
"My friends, after ail, those are silly
questions to ask. because if you knew
me, knew my life, knew the men that
have worked with me, lived with nn.
and labored with me, knew me as my
old neighbor and friend. Brother Mey
ers, who sits on my left, know me you
would not ask those questions. I have
all my life stood up in Pennsylvania
for clean, decent, honorable things,
and 1 shall, please God, stand for such
things as long as I live.
"If I am chosen Governor of your
Commonwealth I will be your Gov
ernor, nobody else.
"I take the stand for local option
for the right of every county in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to
express for itself whether or not in
toxicating liquors shall be sold in its
county. I have just heard to-day that
somebody did not understand whether
I was for county local option or
whether I was for foreign local option.
Well. I said county by county. Shall
I spell It for you? Having taught
others for a generation how to read
and write and to speak the English
language, I somehow feel that I know
how to say what I think."
Dr. Brumbaugh's Speech
In his address at Greensburg Dr
Brumbaugh said:
"The Commonwealth is a corporate
entity pledged in all its departments
to serve the interests of the people
who are its constituents. We must
never lose sight of the fact that the
first business of legislation and admin
istration allkp Is to make It easy for
people to live under law and hard for
people to violate law. The business of
the Commonwealth is to take care of
its individuals, to recognize their
rights, and to protect them from every
form of injustice and wrong. It
should be a fundamental maxim that
no one should hurt the people of the
Commonwealth. It should likewise
be recognized that every one should
be pledged individually and in cor
porate power to care for and conserve
the rights of the individual. The
mighty army of people who work in
Pennsylvania and who therefore turn
the potential resources of the Com
monwealth Into actual value should
be served faithfully and steadily.
Whatever makes for a happy, con
tented and prosperous people, makes
for the good of the Commonwealth;
for the Commonwealth must always
prize above every other asret its hands
of toil and brains of endeavor.
"I believe in a good, sane, sensible
and effective workingmen's compen
sation act. I regret that the last Leg
islature failed to enact such a law, and
I shall Insist that the Incoming Legis
lature shall speedily crystallize the
wish of the people In this matter into
the law of the Commonwealth, and If
elected Governor I shall assuredly
sign such an act. Our liability act is
not sufficiently far-reaching in its pro
visions as to guarantee to the widows
and orphans of those who are fatally
Injured in our industries the protec
tion which the corporate power of
the State should guarantee to them.
It may be that by taxing these cor
porations or in some other fair and
equitable manner the money may be
put into the hands of the Common
wealth itself and paid by the Com
monwealth directly to those who by
law are entitled to receive it. It
ought to be possible for a man tolling
in Pennsylvania to know that if by
unavoidable accident he should lose
his life in his service to his family in
earning for them bread, that they be
cause of his sacrifice shall never want
for bread.

"Our great corporations are In
creasingly insistent that men who seek

It ought to be understood that the
health of our citizens must be safe
guarded at all hazards, and that a
strong iody kept in health is a, vital
asset of the Commonwealth. Penn
sylvania can point with pride to her
already splendidly organized depart
ment of health, and we mustv go be
yond this, and with all forms of pre
ventive and precautionary measures,
safeguard the strength and promote
the earning capacity and the happi
ness of our people who toll with their
hands. _ ...
"The people of this Commonwealth
should be permitted in each county
to settle for themselves the question
whether or not licenses for the sale
of Intoxicating liquors shall be g ran ted
in the county. This in my judgment
is a duty which the Legislature and
the executive alike owe to the people
of Pennsylvania, and In my primarj
platform, as well as before the people
in this campaign, I have steadily
stood, and shall continue to stand, tor
this form of local option. It is a part
of the propoganda for tho safeguard
ing of the health and the strength of
our people, and is the natural out
growth of the teaching in our schools.
As to Charities
"Those of our people who are sick
or injured, or who are in any other
way removed from the usual and nor
mal relations to society should always
receive at the hands of our people the
most generous and humane treatment.
Pennsylvania can well rejoice in her
splendid record of support to our
charitable institutions; but the method
of distributing the money is both un
businesslike and unscientific. We give
enough but we do not give it wisely.
This money should be distributed in
a purely nonpartisan way, on such a
basis as to promote the largest pos
sible good and relieve the greatest
amount of suffering. No hand should
ever reach into the sources of sup
port for the helpless and needy of the
Commonwealth or divert from them
any relief or assistance which the good
heart of the Commonwealth always
has generously provided for. Under
wise supervision the State has an ab
solute right to know that its money Is
accomplishing the thing which the
people intended it should accom
plish."

UNREFRESHING SLEEP
The woman who is tired out, who
aches' all over when she rises in the
morning, who feels depressed most of
the time, needs just the help that
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can give her
new. blood and stronger nerves.
The number of disorders that are
caused by thin blood is amazing and
most women are careless about the
condition of their blood. Quickly the
nerves are affected and the patient
becomes irritable, worries over trifles,
does not sleep as well as formerly and
Is not refreshed by rest. There may
or may not bo stomach trouble and
headache. This Is a condition that
calls for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the
nonalcoholic tonic.
Give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial
and the first sign of new life will be
noticed in your appetite. You will be
hungry by meal time. As the blood
becomes enriched it feeds and soothes
the irritated nerves, sleep becomes
sounder and more refreshing, your
worries become less, your work lighter.
These are some of the things that
these tonic pills do. Try them for
any trouble caused by thin blood.
The Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y., will mall free to
any woman the booklet, "Plain Talks
to Women." Your own druggist sells
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. —Advertised
