Cause of Hay Fever Hyomei the Only Cure Gives Change of Climate in Your Own Home.

Fifty years ago hay fever had not been named, but undoubtedly people suffered then as now with sneezing, watery eyes, excessive running at the nose. The direct causes appear to te heat, dust, and the pollen of flowers, and the. only treatment that physicians recommended prior to the discovery of Hyomei, was a change of climate. Now by using Hyomei you can save an expensive trip to the Mountains, and escape weeks of suffering. This remarkable treatment kills the germs of the disease and soothes and heals the irritated niucous membrane.

It really gives you in your own home a change of climate, and nay fever sufferers know from past experience that this is the only thing that has afforded them relief. By breathing Hyomei a few times daily, you can save the expense of a trip to the Mountains and avoid the dangerous hay fever. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but extra 'bottles, 50 cents, and consists of a neat pocket inhaler, through which Hyomei is breathed and which will last a life-time, a medicine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. W. H.

Kennedy offers to refund the money if Hyomei does not do all that is claimed for it.

Dr. McFarlane Discussed Big Subject in Brilliant Manner. The interesting manner in which the speakers are handling their subjects at the Teachers' Institute is very forcibly seen by the early attendance of the members.

Dr. Twitniyer was the first speaker today. He tried to imjiress upon his listeners that the moment a child leaves its home to enter school is its first move Into civic life. His subject, "The School As a Civic Factor," branched out from this and many different points were touched upon, the most prominent being tin; democracy of the school. If the teacher can impart to the child the' fact that the school is its school, a great achievement will be accomplished and a good fight well started.

He further said that a democratic school showed an ideal community, society and home, where cliques, parties and gangs were not known and where knowledge had become a power. Knowledge is not a power, as is generally believed, until such knowledge can be used. He explained this by saying that a man might have the knowledge of an immense sum of money in a bank but he could not use it. But in another bank he might have an account in his name and there the knowledge became a power for he could use the money. His closing instructions to the teachers were to be getting into the minds, hearts and lives of the child the same mental, moral and spiritual movements that are in the teacher which by so doing makes the child a factor in the future years of its life.

After Dr. Twitmyer had closed Miss Julia Kyan sang a soio which was received with so much pleasure that an encore was demanded and received. Dr. McFarlane then followed with an address "The Study of a Continent," but the time slipped by so rapidly that he had barely started on the description? of Africa when he was compelled to stop for the usual intermission. He said that the reason whv the different parts of the continent had more rain was due to the different trade winds.

The southwest winds come from the Indian Ocean and gather force and moisture in more quantities than those of the northwest winds which came from Europe and had traveled over the western part of Asia before reaching the northern part of Africa. Much of tliu territory traveled had already received the benefit of the moisture and very Jit-tic was left when Africa was reached. His talk of the morning was preliminary to that of -the afternoon, Imt was instructive as well as entertaining. Dr. Gilbert made the closing address and took as his subject "How and Why We Learn." In opening he stated thai no two minds know the same thing and as this was a broad assertion he went into an explanation of the statement.

He said that two or more parties might observe a tree. One would only know that it was a tree while another would be considering how much lumber could be obtained from it. Still another with an artistic mind would see its hidden beauties. So he said it was in all things and that learning was growth. Dr.

Twitmyer and Dr. McFarlane continued their addresses during the afternoon session and it was the last talk that Dr. Twitniyer gave for he left for his home, Wilmington, after the session. Dr. John Harris, of Bucknell University, made the closing address of the afternoon.
