CATARRH GERMS
EASILY KILLED
ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS DISEASE
FOREVEK IS TO DESTROY
THE GERMS THAT
CAUSE IT
By a Specialist
If you have catarrh ami want to get
rid of it you must kill the germs which
cause catarrh. Stomach dosing, oint
ments. sprays, creams, douches, etc., fail
because they overlook this fact. They
all help by giviug temporary relief but
they do not reach the perm life that has
found lodgement in your head, nose,
throat and could not destroy it if they
did.
The best known way of destroying
the dangerous germs of catarrh and
consequently ending the disease itself
is to breathe into the air passages of
your nose and throat the pleasant, pen
etrating air of Hyomei (pronounced
High-o-me). Hyomei is made from
purest oil of Eucalyptus combined with
other powerful healing, antiseptic and
germicidal ingredients. You breathe it
through a little hard rubber pocket in
haler which comes with every complete
treatment. Every time you inhale the
sweet fragrant air of Hyomei through
this little device you are drawing into
your swollen, inflamed, germ-laden
membranes a vapor which will not only
reduce the swelling and inflammation
and open your clogged and stopped up
air passages but will absolutely and
positively destroy every trace of Ca
tarrh germ life it reaches. H. 0. Ken
nedy and many other leading druggists
in this vicinity are so sure of the
blessed lasting relief that Hyomei
brings to catarrh sufferers that they
sell it invariably on a positive guar
antee that money paid will be refunded
if successful results are not secured
from its use. Right now. while you
have the matter in mind, tear out this
notice and take it into your druggist
the next time you pass his door. Be
sure to get the complete Hyomei outfit
which includes the free "inhaler."
This makes it easy to breathe the Hy
omei way up into the air passages and
vou can begin at once to drive this
dangerous, disgusting disease from your
>• stem forever.—Adv.

Hugh Sum Will Be Required Annually
If Congress Decides to Add Battle
Cruisers to Navy
P Associated Press,
Washington, Jan. 2S.—(Naval ex
pens figure that it will require an an
nual naval ap ropriation of $200,000.-
000 instead of the present average of
$140,000,000 if Congress daeides to
add to the present type of American
naval vessel® a suitable proportion of
"battle .-raisers'' such as have played
so prominent a part in the recent naval
engagements in European and >outh
American waters. This estimate is based
on the theory that there wiil be no in
terruption in the permanent plan of
11a v ai increase whi.-h contemplates an
addition of two dreadnoughts each
year.
If the naval experts were required
to choose between building dread
noughts or battle cruisers, they would
unhesitatingly turn to the dreadnought
t> pe, and it is stated by prominent
officials that nothing yet has occurred
in the naval battles of the present-war
to change their origiuai belief regard
ing the anteriority of the dreadnought
type. They are quite willing to accept
a proper proportion of battle cruisers,
' ut insist that the first requisite is the
• ompietion of the plan whereby the
navv is to possess forty-eight iread
-1 ougiits. Any attempt to iuteretere
wit- the steady aud constant addition
id these .atter types to the navy would,
it is stated, be strongly resisted by

'TO NAME COUNTY'PENROSE'
I Representative Adams Proposes to Ore
ate a New One Out of Parts of
Luzerne and Schuylkill
i Representative .William L. Adams, j
of Luzerne, expects to introduce in the
'■ House next week a bill for the crea- i
I tion of a new county out o:' parts of
I.u/.erne and Schuylkill, to be known as
Penrose county, with Ilazletou as the
county seat.
This is a modification of the bill in- !
iroduced about eighteen years ago,,
when Hastings was Governor. projios- j
ing to form a new county.out of the I
same territory and call it county, i
■ The proposition got as far as commit- '
: tee and then was ridiculed out of ex- I
I istence.
The proposed new county is expect- I
ed to contain 175.000 population. Rep
resentative Adams ays that the forma j
tion of the new county is something
ti at has long been needed by the resi
dents of upper Schuvlkill and lower j
l.u.erne. as i; would save them long
trips to Pottsville and Wilkes-Barre.
;!lazloton is the natural center of the '
district, according to Mr. Adams, who
also says that the county should be
named aftei Penrose, as he is "the
great Republican of our times" and i
this is a Republican Legislature. |
"Senator Penrose demonstrated his
i popularity with the people." continued j
. Mr. Adams, "and is clearly entitled to j
the honor."

To Overcome Winter
Complexion Troubles
If the chill air causes your skin to
dry and scale or become unduly red
or spotted, before you iro to bed spread
a thin layer of ordinary mercolUed
wax over your entire face. Remove
next morning with warm water. This is
the ideal complexion treatment for the
winter girl. The wax gently absorbs
the dead particles of surface skin, so
gradually there's no discomfort. This
gives the underlying skin a chance to
breathe, and to show itself. In a week
or so the new and younger skin Is
wholly in evidence and you have a
really matchless complexion. Naturally
all its defects disappear with the dis
carded cuticle—as chaps, roughness,
blotches, pimples, freckles, blackhead?.
I sually an ounce of mercolised wax.
procurable at any drug store, Is enough
to renovate even the worst complexion.

you 11 use this simple face wash: Pow

GERHfIfiNS BREAK THROUGH
RUSSIftNTRENCHESBUIARE
REPULSED WITH BIG LOSS
Petrograd, Via London, .Tan. 28,
9.40 A. M.—ln a stubborn fight in the
vicinity of Sochoczew on the Bzura
river, the Germans on Tuesday broke
through into the Russian trenches from
which they were repulsed onJy after
bayonet charges. At Atlanka, two
miles north of Soclvovzew, in a battle
lasting thirty minutes, the Germans
lost 500 killed.
A Russian officer, commanding a j
battery of machine guns, gave the fol
lowing account of this fighting:
"At dusk our battery was ordered
to take a certain jvosition to check the
Germans. Within an hour trenches
were dug and the battery masked. We
lay all night waiting for the attack.
Before us was a clear space of 2,000 i
yards to a hill on which there were
' trees.
"With the coming of daylight we
became impatient ani.i began to tear <
that the Germans did not intend to at-j
tack. Suddenly at tire end of the field, 1
:wo noticed a detachment of cavalry.
! They rode towards our position and to
a point within six hundred yards of it
an I then stopped, evidently suspecting
that something was wrong. We were • (
in deppair when they turned to move j
aiway, since we were without firing or-
I ders.
"Suddenly the crackling of our ma
: chine guns, 20 yards to the left, gave |
the signal for a general play for the..
| battery. Part of the detachment was),
, killed and the rest of tlte cavalrymen j •
i lied. They were caught, however, by j j
shrapnel from our artillery battery j i
i further back and scarcely one es- 1
: caped.
"Half an hour passed. From . the
j direction of the village there then ap
| peared the expected long linos of the !
j German columns, not less than three
regiments. Again wo held our fire for
! a time, knowing what was expected of
us.
"The Germans gathered on a hill
3
and began entrenching. They didn't
work long. With three volleys we
swept the whole of the German left
flank and in the space of 30 minutes
the whole ground within reach of our
guns was cleared. The Germans left
500 "killed.
" Liater the Germans tried to get
around on our left but here our Si
'berians mot them and within a few min
utes had them on the run again. Nfean
whdle two German guns, which were
covering the movement, wore silence!
by our artillery, thanks to which wa
lost scarcely a man."
