Catarrh cures come and catarrh cures 0, but Hyomei continues to heal ca- rrh and abolish its disgusting symp- toms wherever civilization exists, Every year the already enormous sales of this really scientific treatment for catarrh grow greater, and the pres- ent year should show all records broken, If you breathe Hyomei daily as di- rected it will end your catarrh, or it don’t cost you a cent. If you have a hard rubber Hyomei inhaler somewhere around the house, get it out and start it at once to for- e"'l:lefld yourself of cg’arrh. ¢ good Co., of any other goad'fiugfilst: will sell you a bottle of Hyomei (liquid), start to breathe it and notice how quickly it clears out the air passages and makes the entire head feel fine. Hyomei used regularly will end ca- tarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis or asth- ma. A complete outfit, including a hard rubber, pocket inhaler and- bottle of Hyomei, costs but little. No stomach dosing; just breathe it. It kills the germs, soothes and heals the inflamed membrane. GAGER - Funeral Director} and Embalmer Prompt serviceday or night “The United States just now is risk- 0|ing a good deal of discomfort for its own people. It is found to be increas- ingly difficult to feed them as they have Leen used to being fed. Con- necticut is going to feel this soon if she does not produce more to eat. She has not been accustomed to rely on her own farms and pastures for, the support of her inhabitants. We could buy fcod cheaper outside, But things are no longer so cheap, The war has pow brought the west half of Europe for customers. Connecticut must be- gin to look out for herself and work her own farms to better advantage.- “Her people must and can produce more food than they now do. It is not v the farmers to whom we must Everybody can help. Waste makes want, Werk makes plenty Every garden patch can be made fr produce more, and women and-childre: can do the work if the men are away on public service. “It will be of permanent benefit to our people if they learn these lessons of .economic duty. The lessons learned will survive the war. Habits of econ- omy and thrift once formed are not soon forgotten. “Most of the maney given to public agencies in aid of those who are ac- tively engaged in winning the war for us will be spent for objects that will come to an end with the war. From solliers' stockings to camp libraries and Y. M. C. A. huildings, they are of the kind that will perish in the using. Not so with what we put'on the langd, in the way of making it do more for us and our neighbors. We could go far towards doubling its productiveness. We can readily increase in enough to secure us against being put on short rations, and do not forget that other- wise we may be, this very year.” SIX SERGEANTS BEARERS AT GALES FERRY FUNERAL Body of - Sergeant Lyman J.

Mrs, Henry J, Kendall of Lisbon has reecived the following letter from her 501 Somewhere in the Trenches, March, 1618, Mother Dear: I have been so busy [ could not get a chance to write un= til now. T have received several let- *ers from you and am scery I was un- 1ble to answer them until now . 3 We are out for a weel’s rest and hen we go back to the trenches 1gain. I tell yvou mother, it is. some interesting place. At times it g very quiet, but when they do open up it is interesting for everyone. They opened up one night when we were in- No Man's Land and fixing barbed wire and I never did see any- thing like it. I have read of it but never thought I would be in it my- self. The shells were as. thick as bees in the air near a hee hive and bursting all around us. Rifle and machine bun bullets were also very thick. The one thing to save our- selves was to drop in a shell hole and %keep Tow So no shrapnel or bullets would hit us. So long as a shell did not land ywithin 3 or 4 fget from us we were quite safe. ‘We lay there for 55 minutes and the air was black with smoke. The Ger- mans growled like dogs and tried to frighten everyone but soon they were sent hack a flying. = Se then with the assistance of two Frenchmen we made our way back through mud and water, crawling most of the way to a trench about one-eighth of a mile in the dis- tance, then to a dugout in the ground where we were safe, It was funny when our bunch got back, we had no leggins, part of us, our pants were torn and wet and muddy. The Ger- mans paid dear for that little spell. Many came over the top that didn't ®o back, that is, the Germans. Well, it may be another month before you hear from me, so God bless you all.
