TO ALL cATARRH SUFFERERS
,Hyomei Guaranteed to Cure by John E
DAILY or Money Refunded.

The popularity and increase in, the
sales Of Hyomei are unique in the
annals of medicine. Such astonishing
cures have been made by this remark
able remedy that the proprietors have
authorized John E. DAILY to sell every
package of Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee that it will cure catarrh.
If it does not, the purchaser can have
his money refunded by John E. DAILY.
Hyomei is no ordinary remedy. It
is the only method of treatment that
sends by direct inhalation to the most
remote part Of the air passages, a
balsamic air that destroys all ca
tarrhal germs in the breathing organs
enriches and puriies the blood with
additional ozone, and makes perman-
ent and complete cures of catarrh.
The complete JHyomei outfit costs,
but 81 90 and consists OF an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
a medicine dropper and bottle of
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts a lifetime,
and if one bottle does not cure, an
extra bottle OF Hyomei can be obtained
for so cents 1t is the most economi-
cal of all remedies advertised for the
cure of catarrh, and is the only one
that follows nature in her method of
treating diseases Of the respiratory
organs.
Breathe through the inhaler for a
few minutes four times a day and your
catarrh is cured. That's all.
If not cured John e. DAILY will re-
fund your money.

MATTER OF COURSE OF
TRUE LOVE-" ETC.

The case of II. A. Perry, well known
in Nekoosa, is thus stated by the
Necedah Republican,:
ssThat the course of true love does
not always run smoothly up in Ar
menia, was brought out in a case
tried before Justice w. D. Niles,
wherein Fl. A. Perry, the famous
bareback rider, was charged with COM
hitting assault and battery upon the
person of Bertha Rolf, aged Is years.
During the early part of the season
these two had been lovers, fond and
true Business called young Perry
away to a distant place. During his
absence Bertha'S guardians en-
couraged her to receive the attentions
of another young Armenian, who was
more acceptable to them than the
bareback rider. When Perry re-
turned he endeavored to re-establish
himself in the good graces of his fair
lenamorata and there was trouble,
mostly on the part of the guardians.
At the trial much evidence of con-
f1icting nature was introduced and
bis honor was somewhat uneasy like,
but he kept sharp watch on the
young people. During the introduce
tion of Mrs. Rolff's testimony, young
Perry crossed the room to where his
true love was and greeted her with a
fervent handclasp and fair Bertha sa-
luted him with right royal smack
on the ruddy lips and the dove of
peace and love Immediately alighted
on terra TRINA. Nothing of this es-
capped the eye of the vigilant court,
and he instantly brought the case to a
standstill by shouting, mot guilty, '
