DO NOT DOSE THE STOMACH.
Cure Catarrll by Natures own
Method-Every Breath OF HyoneI
Brings Relief.

ofhtSo HStcI.
Nearly every one who has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and cure
it by drugging the stomach. Temper
airy relief may be given, but cure
seldom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure ca
tarrh would be to have a change of
climate; but now with Hyomei you
can carry a health-giving climate in
your vest pocket and by breathing it a
few minutes four times a day soon
cure yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but S1.00 and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
a medicine dropper and bottle of
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts lifetime.
and if one bottle does not cure, an ex-
ira bottle of Hyomei can be obtained
for so cents. 1t is the most econom-
ical of all remedies advertised for the
cure of catarrh, and is the only one
that follows nature III her method of
treating diseases of the respiratory
organs.
G. A. Parcher has sold a great many
HyOmei outfits and the more he sells
the more convinced he is that he is
perfectly safe in guaranteeing to re-
find the money if Hyomei does not
cure.

An amusing story is told of the artist
Phil May and ain English conjurer at a
fair at Standardization. Phil was in
the crowd which had gathered TO watch
very clever gentleman who was wrap
ping UP sovereigns and half crowns in
pieces of paper and selling them for 2
shillings. The sharp" had beautiful
fase-such face as Phil May loved to
draw. So he sketched him furtively.
But the gentleman saw him and made
a speech forthwith.
IF that there celebrited portrit paint
er with the tight breeches on will and
up the picter, the equally celebrited
benefactor to 'oomanity wot Is givin
away guilds for coppers will reward i'm
accordingly" he shouted
Phil, with twinkle in his eye, hand
ed up the drawing. The conjurer was
delighted with the sketch and pinned it
to the tailboard of his cart. With an
other preliminary speech, he threw
three sovereigns, three half sovereigns
and several half crowns into piece of
paper, screwed it up and handed it to
the artist. you'll be president of the
bloomin' R'yal academy some dye,
young man." said he. Here, catchp'
"a bargains bargain" said Phil,
walking off with the packet of gold and
silver.
He confessed afterward wnen he
opened the packet and found two pen
MES and a halfpenny in it that it was
the most entertaining commission he
had ever been paid for.
