daughter. Mr. Hills is a graduate of
O. A. C.
There were exactly twenty-eight
chorus girls in the show last night, and
a dozen men. More could not get on
this stage to any advantage. -
Chief Wells has in his possession a
lady's new belt found this morning.
This is a combination leather and rub
ber belt with pearl fastenings.
Most of the Corvallis stores are now
displaying holiday goods. Many of the
windows have displays of what will
make acceptable presents. The people
: who buy early will have the best
. choice.
The "Land of Nod" company dis
tributed some very novel advertising at
the performance last night, the : kind
that the possessor keeps in his pocket
and shows to the other fellow. It
costs a little more but is always worth
the while.
Since early this morning six or more
inches of snow has fallen. The weather
shows no disposition to moderate or
grow colder, so there is a prospect of
a heavy snowfall. It maybe that the
heavy fall that marked last January or
February will . be duplicated at this
time. Last year's fall, however, ended
with a rain and heavy floods of the
Willamette and Columbia. , .
' At a special meeting ' of the O. A. C
student body,- following the drill hour
yesterday, Coach Sol S. Metzger was
presented with a' gold watch and chain,
and Sol "flunked." Such a.testimoniai
is not" common in the first year of any
coach, and then Metzger had no inkling
of what the student body was up to.
This presentation was certainly a fine
token of the esteem in which Mr. Metz
ger is held. .

I Albany was visited by a shop ; lifter
yesterday. A woman went around to
i several places helping herself to things.
' At Chambers & McGune she was spotted
: and made to eive . up. what she had
! stolen. Going to her " room at Russ
j House other things were found, and
: she confessed to having taken things
at different places, a fui at Hamilton's
among other things. On ' returning
everything she was . allowed ' to go.

: There is more or less disappointment
among the officials at the size of the
j fine assessed against the bootlegger
j who subscribed himself officially as Ed.
I Wilson Wyatt. It is so hard to catch
bootleggers and so hard to convict them,
1 even when caught with goods in their
possession and record of ., their sales,
that the officials feel a $50 fine is inade-
: quate. , The intent is to make an ex-
1 ample of each convicted man so that
others tempted to engage in the illegal
traffic will cut it out. Fifty dollars isn't
much to a fellow who can sell his booze
at $1.00 a pint and buy it at $2.00 or
$3.00 a gallon.

What is Hyomei?
You Have Heard About the Catarrh
Cure Graham & Wells Guarantees.
Hyomei is a wonderful antiseptic, so
powerful that . it promptly destroys
germ life, yet its action on the mucous
membrane is extremely soothing and
healing. ' N It relieves catarrh, in five
minutes: it cures m a tew weeks or
money back.
It is made chiefly of eucalyptus and
eucalyptol taken from the eucalyptus
forests of inland Australia. The medi
cal profession knows that eucalyptus is
an absolutely certain germ destroyer
and with the active, principles of euca
lyptus as a base Hyomei is made 'more
efficient, pleasant and quick acting by
the addition of ThymoL an antiseptic
and disinfectant largely employed in
the Listerian System. Guaiacol and
other' important medicinal agents are
also included in the. Hyomei formula,
which, no doubt, is the greatest de
stroyer of catarrh germs the world has
ever known.
' Hyomei is a powerful, penetrating
antiseptic that is pleasant to use. : It
does not contain a particle of cocaine
opium or any habit-forming or injurious
drug.
