PULLAR & NIVEN Breathe Hyomei To Kill Catarrh| The Only Sensible Method For Suc- | cessfully Treating Catarrh. ‘What is catarrh? An inflammation of the mucous membrane which causes a discharge. ‘What causes the inflammation? Some physicians say the pernicious activity of “little gerins or microbes | that lodge in the folds and crevices of the mucous membrane. How can catarrh be ended? By killing the germs. Will medicines taken into the stom- ach kill these germs? They may act on the blood and tone up the system, but it is not believed that they can destroy catarrh germs. How about sprays and douches? Good, as far as they go, but they do reach the lower throat or lungs neith- er can a‘liquid penetemte into the folds and crevices of the membrane where germs secret themselves. What will reach catarrh germs? HYOMEI, a esoothing antiseptic, which you breathe into the lungs. How do you breatho HYOMEIL Through a small hard rubber in- haler that can be carried in a vest pocket. Does HYOMEI act quickly? Yes; results are soon noticed. Is HYOMEI recommended for any other diseases? Yes; for any disease of the nasal passages and throat where inflamma- ton is present. . Is it used for colds? Yes; especlally the vapor treatment, which is often used to break up a oold over night, and for coughs, sore throat, croup and asthma. Is it guaranteed? Yes: or your money back. Who sells HYOMEI? Clark & Brainerd Co. WANTS 3,500 FUN FOR WAR WORK HERE (Continued from First Page) sweaters to New Britain soldiers at Camp Devens, Ayer, Mass.

FIERCE FIGHTING STILL.ON AT YPRES (Continued from First Page) ment of the Ypres Staden railway fur- nished good cover from which the Gérmans could work their machine guns to advantage. The other re- doubts gave little trouble but several near the rallway northwest of Poel- cappelle put up strenuous resistance. There was heavy fighting at Koikut, north of Langemarclk, where there was a nest of redoubts. For the most part the Germans in this region surren- dered without making strong resist- ance. Some of the hottest work of the day occurred in the town of Poelcappelle. 1 In last Thursday's drive the British had established themselves in the western half of the village and vigor- ous fighting had continued there ever since. At dawn today hand to hand fighting among the ruins began in earnest and the Germans were grad- ually pushed back to the eastern out- skirts of the town, where they took up a position in a big brewery. This place was well fortified and every win- dow furnished an opening for a ma- chine gun. The battle continued sev- eral hours but early in the afternoon it was announced the Germans had been forced to evacuate the brewery and to withdraw still further.

Petrograd, Oct. 10.—The new coal- ition government assumed control of Russia yesterday, replacing the coun- cil of five organized a month ago. An- nouncement was made that the new government intends to car1y out an ex- tensive foreign policy with ‘“the pur- pose of making peace In agreement with our allies as soon as possible.” Meanwhile the government will take steps to bring the army to its high- est fighting power and to restore econ- omic and social tranquility to the country.

The Petrograd council of workmen'’s and soldlers’ delegates an- nounces in the Novaia Nishing that “we workmen and the garrison of Pet- rograd give the new government no support.” In addition to carrying out an active foreign policy the new government will issue an official statement declar- ing that the serious internal difficulty of Russia is due chiefly to the Kornil- off rebelllon. The new government pledges that its business acts will be on the basis of agreements between representatives 6f the bourgeoise, the tax paying elements and the revolu- tionary democracy. It ' points out that the success of such a program is possible only if the nation is united. The government’s statement in con- clusion says that it has three principal aims: “To raise the fighting power of the armies and navies. To bring order to the country by fighting anarchy.

Not even steam fishing trawlers were permitted to go out into the North sea, now the passengers said. The | Germans, however, are not doing any- thing to prevent vessels entering neu- tral ports. Among the passengers was J. J| Sullivan of Boston, an American mem- ber of the crew of the Belgian Re- lief steamship Thomas Krag, which was torpedoed in the North Sea, three of her crew being killed. “The Germans are keeping a strict lookout with their U-boats at the en- | trance to the port of Rotterdam,” | sald Sullivan, “and will not let any Dutch or other steamships get out. We sailed from Port Arthur, Texas, for Rotterdam with a cargo for the Belgian Relief Commission, and after landing it safely the Thomas Kragg | started on her voyage back to the United States. The next day a U- boat appeared on the port bow and fired at us. Two shells passed high ! over the quarterback and the third | one struck the rudder and put it out | of commission. The captain had a | Jury rudder rigged, and managed to get clear of the submarine and get back to Rotterdam for repairs, but would not have escaped if a British destroyer had not appeared and caused the U-boat to submerge. Af- | ter a week in drydock the Thomas Kragg started out again, and this | time we were attacked by three air- planes close to the mouth of the River Maas, and had to put back to port onc “The third attempt to get across the North Sea was the finish of the ship. | The second day out a torpedo struck ' the vessel on the starboard side, right by the engine room, killing the chief engineer and another man. As we were trying to lower away the life- boats the U-boat rose to the surface and opened fire on the ship, killing a man standing by the falls and wound- ing four othcrs of the crew. We man- aged to get away from the steamship just before she went down, and were in the open boats when a British cruiser was sighted, and the subma- rine disappeared.” Another shipwrecked mariner on the British liner was Chief Officer Lars Turkensen of the Norwegian umship Majoren, which was sunk by shellfire on Sept. 23 twenty-five miles west of Tory Island, on the north of Ireland coast.

Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the substi- tute for calomel — arc a mild but sure laxative, and their eficct on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets, These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They tzke hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth?
