Charms Against Asthma.
Breathe Balsamic Air Of Hyemei.-
Qulck Relief or That "Cheking.0

Breathe Balsamic Air Of Hyomei.-
Qulck Relief for That +" Cheking."
Hyomei is just as valuable in the treat
ment of asthma, as it is in catarrhal
troubles, and many letters have been
received from prominent men and women
who have been cured OF asthma by this
simple treatment.
Rev. George H. Honey of Deer Park
Parsonage. Baltimore, writes: "The
Hyomei came last Friday morning. Mrs.
Honey had been suffering severely three
weeks daily with asthma when she began
using it, and after few times OF breath
ing it the asthma ceased, and has not
returned. She has had this trouble since
she was seven years old, and we have
spent hundreds of dollars in search OF
relief. When you consider all this l
think it is most remarkable thing, that
once using Hyomei, should remove the
trouble entirely"
There is no disagreeable strangling
inhalation with Hyomei as with ordi-
nary asthma cures. Its aromatic, fra.
grant medication is breathed through an
inhaler, both as preventive of asthma
and cure for acute attacks. 1t gives
immediate relief and prevents recur-
renee of the disease.
Asthma appears in so many different
forms that there are probably some cases
Hyomei will not cure; in these W. B.
Eastman will refund the money, as the
proprietors of til S treatment write that
they do not want to take anybody's
money. unless perfectly satisfied with the
good done by Hyomei.
