SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CATARRa
Just Breathe Hyomei Three Times Day
To Be Oured.

If few years ago someone had said
you can cure catarrh by breathing air
charged with a healing balsam, the
idea would have been ridiculed, and
it remained for r. Z. Booth, that emf
omei this method of cure.
Hyomei has performed the most mi
raculous cures of catarrh, and is to-
day recognized by leading members of
the medical profession as the only adj
vertised remedy that can be relied up
on to do just what it claims.
The complete outfit of Hyomei
costs but $1.O0, and consists of an in
haler, a medicine dropper and bottle
of Hyomei.
Breathe Hyomei through the inhal-
er for few minutes four times day
and it will cure the worst case of ca
tarrh. 1t soothes and heals the mu-
cous membrane of the air passages,
prevents irritation, and effects COM
plete and lasting cure.
The treasurer of the American Life
Insurance Company, j. S. Nugent, of
New York City, writes, 'Hyomei has
completely cured my daughter of ca
tarrh, from which she has been suf-
ferer for years"
In Annapolis there are scores OF
well-known people who say they have
been cured of catarrh by Hyomei. Ii
it does not cure you Feldmeyer
Brothers will return the money you
paid for Hyomei. This is the strong
est evidence that can be offered as to
their faith in the remedy. /

one-night stand at the Illinois thea
tire. Curiosity impeled the attend

erybody got happy" largely at
Macs" expense.
There were no other speakers, CON
trary to the schedule as announced,
but that did not dsconcert the chief
performer, who alluded to the fact
that the stage all about him bare
and deserted except for the empty
chairs as very good indication that
he was tied to no one by pledges that
would hamper him in carrying out
his own ideas if he were elected
mayor.
1t was rather uphill work getting
things started in the beginning, as
the crowd was inclined to laugh at
Alderman George when he called the
meeting to order at SIS and endeav-
ored to secure the services of three
men to act as judges to award the
$50 that had been offered to the per
son bringing in the best answer to
the question, why is it the city of
Rock Island pays less personal taxes
now than in 1882" The crowd was
called upon to suggest the names of

ems of possible and impossible, pres

persons had been named the crowd
