COMMUNICATION FROM
WOODBRIDGE & PURDY
Offer to Refund Money if Hyomei
Does Not Cure Cattarrh.

To the Editor OF the Ledger.
We have been asked recently If the
advertisements printed in your columns
regarding Hyomei were true. where
we offer TO refund the money If this
treatment does not cure catarrtf and
catarrhal deafness. We wish you
would please print this letter in as
conspicuous a place as possible in your
paper, saying that we absolutely agree
to refund the money to any purchaser
Of a Hyomei outfit II it does not cure
catarrh.
This outfit consists OF an inhaler Of
a convenient size to be carried in the
vest pocket so that the user canbreathe
Hyomei four or five times daily. With
this is included a medicine dropper
and a bottle OF Hyomei. The outfit
sells for 81 90 aud is a most economical
treatment, for the inhaler lasts a life
time and there is enough Hyomei for
several weeks use, while extra bottles
can be obtained for soc.
Wakrust this letter will settle any
douBtS that may have arisen as to
our willingness to refund the money
for a Hyomei outfit in cas- the pur-
chaser is not perfectly satisfied.
We wish TO say emphatically that
our guarantee on Hyomei holds good,
and we will refund the money to any
dissatisfied purchaser who simply
states that he has used the treatment
according to directions and has not
been helped.

Dear Sir: Suppose you are going 10
paint a house, and ask all the painters
there are within reach TO bid on IT,
you to furnish materials, they to say
what to use, and charge for time and
know-how.
How many will use the same paint?
They, generally, will compound their
own paints.
There will be no two alike. And
this is the end Of the notion that
painters know how to make paint.
They know how to put paint on; and
that is their business.
They ought TO know what to buy.
How many Of them know what to buyf
A blacksmith buys nails, because
better shoes and nails than be can
make them for-by machinery,
Wagonmakers buy wheels, because
better wheels than they can make arr
made are made for less than he car

and it was not until after their ar
rival at Palmyra that the people here
learned by telephone where the pris-

Indeed, few persons here knew that
the prisoner was not still In the

he was locked behind other bars miles

against Dawson here, any more than
there would be against any youth who
had shot down an inocent girl, but the
sheriff. actions are commended, Is it
is thought to be more safe to have
Dawson removed far away from the
scene OF his crime.
No mob appeared here today, and
all fear Of violence has subsidized.
