at a cost of 190,000 to the company by
artists imported from France, where the
furniture was all furnished. They de
aided also that one board room, and a
wry common place one at that, was
food enough for meetings of the trus
tees; and that it was hardly necessary
lor each of the excutive officers to have
a meeting room of his own in which to
at together the committee of which he
might be chairman.
In pursuance of this policy there was
a great cleaning out in the Mutual of
fices with the idea of renting some of
the spai-e made available by the pro
ess of confining the business of the com
within the ordinary limits. The furnish
bgs taken from these rooms which re
present an original investment of not

WHO USES HY0JUEI?
The Best People is Astoria, Says T. F.
Laorin Guaranteed la Catarrhal
Trouble.
No other remedy or medicinal treat
ment hat ever been as popular or made
so many remarkable cures in Astoria
a Hyomei.
Tha best people attest Ha curative
virtue?, says T. F. Laurin, who art the
local agents. The fair way in which
Hyomei was sold, to refund the money
unless it gave satisfaction, was the best
proof when it was introduced that it
possessed unusual curative powers. T.
Laurin took all the risk of the treat
ment giving satisfaction, and left it to
the- purchasers to bs the judge.
Later, when Hyomei was used and
recommended by our well-known physi
cians tad business men and their wires
a treatment that absolutely cured
catarrh, no matter how serious or long
standing, the sales rapidly grew and to
day there is no other remedy in T. F.
La unit's large stock that has such a
large and staple sale.
The first breath of Hyomei's healing
air kills all catarrhal poison.
Try Hyomei today on T. F. Laurin's
offer to refund the money if the treat
ment does not give your satisfaction,
and you will soon become its friend and
recommend it to others. There's nothing
else that gives such quick curative re
sults in catarrhal conditions.
