cArARRH CURED BY DRY AIR,
Hyomei Medicates the Air You
Breathe, Kills the Germs and Cures

Breathe, Kills the Germs and Cure
the Disease.
Hyomei cures catarrh thorough,
and permanently, because II reaches
the smallest air cells In the head,
throat and lungs, kills thegerms caus
ing the disease and drives 1t from the
system. Hyomei goes to the root Of
the disease, destroys the cause, and
makes permanent cures which can be
effected In no other way. Breathe IL
for a few minutes four times a day
and benefit will be seen at once Con-
tinue this treatment for a few weeks
and Hyomei will have cured you.
The Hyomei in the inhaler furnish.
ed with the outfit dries and sterilizes
the air you breathe. 1t is a local and
direct treatment for ~eradicating all
catarrh germs in the mucous men,
brane and tissues and in this way cures
catarrh in any part Of the system.
Used in connection with Hyomei
Balm it has been successful in curing
the worst and most deepseated cases
Of catarrhal deafness.
A. w. Clark Of Everett, Mass,
writes: ~ have spent a fortune on
different treatments for catarrh and
could not hear across the table. After
using Hyomei and Hyomei Balm for
eight days | can hear as we'll as ever"
Stronger than any claims that can
be made in an advertisement, is the
fact that Woodbridge g. Purdy will
give their personal guarantee with
every Hyomei outfit they sell to refund
the money II the purchaser can say
that Hyomei has not given satisfac-
tion
