children get out of order as readily|

Result of Miller Campaign
Special to The Telegraph
Mechanicsburg. Pa., Feb. 17. —Ow-
ing to overwhelming' sentiment for
evangelist Miller to remain here
longer, he may proloiTg his stay sev
eral days, although he is uncertain at
this time, and the farewell may be
held to-night. Among the gifts to
the evangelistic party were a bunch
of greenbacks from a delegation ot

gatt sang "Sowing the Tares" and
Evangelist Miller had for his text
"The Harvest is Past, the Summer is
Ended, and We Are Xot Saved." It
was a plea to sinnners who have had
this unusual opportunity to tarry no
longer. He declared "I cannot make
any more impression on some people
than if J shot boiled peas on the Rock
of Gibraltar" and "If my Christian
experience is a dream, do not ever
dare to wake me up." and when he
told of the joys 6t the followers of
Christ he said: "This is the harvest
time for Mechanicsburg." Sixty-three
decisions w»rc made.

CATARRH CAUSED
BY A GERM
Mint ll r l)rNt rovril Before <'otarrh
llaelf Cnn He Curril. Say# Speelnllst.
Wonderful lltmiltn from Brenth-
Inv Medleateil Air.
Medicino taken into the stomach will
never euro catnrrh. And neither will
the sprays, douches, lotions, creams and
other temporary reliefs that so many
catarrh victims make a habit of using.
To cure catarrh so it won't come back
you must tlrst drive from your body
the millions of germs that are flourish
ing in the inner recesses of your nose
and throat and are causing the dis
ease. ,
There is a preparation which does
this called Hyomel (pronounced Bigh
o-me). Hyomel is. a germ killing va
porized air formed from the purest oil
of Kucalyptus combined with other
healing and antiseptic Ingredients.
You breathe Hyomel through the mouth
and nose by means of a little liArd rub
ber inhaler which druggists furnish
with it. This medicated germicidal air
penetrates into every fold and crevice
3f the mucous membrance of your nose
and throat, kills the catarrh germs that
lodge there, soothes, reduces and heals
the swollen inflamed membranes, stops
the discharge and opens up the clog
ged nose and air passages in a truly
wonderful'way. It gives blessed relief
in five minutes from catarrhal distress
of every kind and if you make a prac
tice of breathing Hyomel for a few
minutes each day for just a few weeks
not only will all the symptoms of ca
tarrh vanish but the disease itself will
be a thing of the past. No one need
try or buy Hyomel on pure faith. H.
C. Kennedy and many other leading
druggists in Harrisburg and vicinity
sell it with the positive guarantee
that It must cure catarrh or that the
money paid for it will be n funded.
Hyomel is very inexpensive and with
this protecting guarantee behind your
purchase there is absolutely no reason
why any sufferer from Catarrh should
not give it a fair trial.—Advertisement.
IF KIDNEYS MID
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
acids.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys iilter thra acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where It often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufTerer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse: again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina
tion. While It is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about fqur ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist
and take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast, continue
this for two or three days. This will
neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is a source of irritation to
the bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid iritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves
cent llthia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.—Advertise

Dandruff causes a feverish irritation
of the scalp, the hair roots shrink,
loosen and then the hair comes out
fast. To stop falling hair at once
and rid the scalp of every particle of
dandruff, get a 25-cent bottle of IJan
derine at any drug store, pour a little
ii. your hand and rub well Into the
scalp. After a few applications all
dandruff disappears and the hair stops
coming out.—Advertisement.
