CURES cATARRH
"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure for
Catarrh Ever Discovered" Say Bow
ditch G. Webster and Percy W..

90 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
be cured is through direct application
that will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Hyome is the only known method of
treatment that accomplishes this. It
is the simplest, most pleasant, and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that has
ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimonials
have been received from the most pro-
minent men and women in the country
who have been cured by this remark
able remedy. Ministers, bankers,
lawyers, even eminent physicians have
given strong testimonials as to the
remarkable powers Of Hyomei to cure
catarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.00, consisting of an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei to last several
weeks. This will effect a cure in ordi-
nary cases, but for chronic and deep
seated cases of catarrh longer use may
be necessary, and then extra bottles of
Hyomei can be obtained for soc. 1t is
not alone the best lit might be called
the only method of curing catarrh,
but it is also the most economical.
Bowditch & Webster and Percy w.
Means have SO much confidence in the
power of Hyomei to cure catarrh, that
they will for limited time, sell this
medicine under their personal guar
antee to refund the money if the pur-
chasers can say that it did not help
them.

One of Augustus enthusiastic auto
mobilists intends to crafty his fancy
with his machine this winter, even as he
did in the summer. and through the
help of friend has transformed the
vehicle so that it will run as well on
the old snow or ice as it would last
summer, on the highways. A pair of
runners have been attached to the for
ward axle, and the tires of the rear
wheels covered with canvas, which is
bound on by wire. The scheme works
well, and it is said that the owner of
the auto will soon take it out to Cob
bosseecOntee. and try conclusions with
