CURES CATARRH.

"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure for
Catarrh Ever Discovered" Says Mayor
Yard.
Do not try to cure catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach; it cannot be
cured in that manner. The only way
in which this too common disease can
becured is through direct application
that will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method of
treatment that accompanies this. 1t is
the simplest, most pleasant, and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that has
ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimo-
mails have been received from the most
prominent men and women in the
country who have been cured by this
remarkable remedy. Ministers, bank
ers, lawyers, even eminent physicians
have sent strong testimonials as to the
remarkable powers of Hyomei to cure
catarrh.
Former Mayor Emory NJ. Yard, Of
Trenton, N. j., writes: "You have my
permission to say that believe "Hyo-
mel" to be one of the most wonderful
cures for catarrh and throat trouble
that has ever been discovered. In my
case the effect has been marvellous. I
enclose you money order for two out
fits for friends of mine to whom have
recommended "Hyomei" and who I
am anxious shall have the benefit of
this remarkable panacea."
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81 90, consisting of an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei to last some
weeks. This will effect cure in or
binary cases, but for chronic and deep
seated cases of catarrh, longer use is
necessary, and then extra bottles of
Hyomei can be obtained for SOC. 1t is
not alone the best (it might be called
the only method of curing catarrh, bnt
it is the most economical.
l.. Taggart had so much confidence
in the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh,
that he will for limited time, sell this
medicine under his personal guarantee
to refund the money if the purchasers
say it did not help them. 1926.

At this time, when men are sac
rificing almost every other con-
sideration for the attainment of
riches, it is a relief to hear the
voice of so able and active man
of affairs as ex-Secretary of the
Navy Long raised to declare his
contentment with moderate sur
roundings. Before commercial
club near his home in Massachu-
setts, few nights ago, Mr.. Long
said: ''I am glad Pm not a rich
man. I'd not exchange my free
dom, home life and content of life
for the wealth of Morgan or
Carnegie" In speaking of social
ism, Mr.. Long said there had been
respect for the rights of property
in the past and there always would
be. "Our mothers and grand
mothers worked like slaves" he
continued, "but the life of the peo-
pie of to-day is rendered much
easier by the accumulation of
wealth. We are living in an age
of socialism, as 1 understand social
ism. I fear no theories, no fanatic,
no millionaire, but 1 do believe in
and trust in the judgment of the
good, everyday people of this coun-
try to work out these problems.
Wealth is all right, but it is not to
be considered for a moment with a
clear mind, good health and a clear
conscience. The advances that are
being made will all work for the
benefit of mankind.
