I11 spite of the nerd trines, the above
amount of property has been sold through
our agency in the past few months,
wbiolais an evidence that Ontario Boal
Estate bas a sound substautiat value,
There is no disguising the fact how-
ever,, that the West still has attractions
for many, and farms aro being listed
with us almost every day, heoause the
owners desire to try their fortunes ort
the prairies.
Many of these farms can be sold by as
at wbat would have been considered ri-
diculously low figures a few years ago,
when the prices for fares produots were
much lower than at present.
It will certainly pay any intending
purchaser to give no a call, as a half an
hour in our aloe would be worth more
to him than a week's driving about the
country.
Desirable town properties a'or sale.

• Magic when Hyomei Is Used.
Ritchie & Cosens
If the thousands of people who suf-
fer from hacking coughs and agoniz•
rag colds would arouse themselves suf-
ficiently to follow this advice, they
would cease to complain within 24
hours.
Here is the advice, if you take it and
you are afterwards sorry that you did,
it won't cost you a penny.
Go to J. Walton McKibbon, drug;
gist, and purchase from him a Hyomei
(pronounced High -o -me) outfit. It
will only cost you $1.00. Take it
home ; use it according to directions
and if it does not cure your cough or
cold, take it back and Mr. McKibben
will refund the purchase price.
Mrs. I. Coon, of John street, Acton,
Ont., says : "I had a swelling come
near my eyes which was caused by
the catarrhal condition. I had to
cough up the bad. impurities that
dropped into my throat, and it felt as
if a hard cold had attacked me, right
in my head, nose and glands near. A
week's treatment of Hyomei overcame
my trouble. 1 am glad to endorse
Hyomei."
When you use Hyomei you don't
swallow nauseating drugs. You sim-
ply breathe in the soothing, pleasant
and antiseptic Hyomei air through the
little pocket inhaler that comes with
each outfit. As this medicated air
passes over the inflamed parts, relief
comes almost at once and cure follows.
Hyomei is also guaranteed by Mr.
McKibben to cure catarrh, croup, grip
and asthma.
