Of the heavy receipts, the cattle

BREATHE HEALING BALSAMS.

Hyomei's Novel Way of Curing Catarrh.
Chas. w. LOOMS Guarantees a Cure.
This novel treatment for catarrh
consists of a hard rubber inhaler Of a
size convenient to be carried in the
vest pocket or purse, a medicine drop
per and a bottle Of Hyomei, BY It's
use it is possible to breathe while at
home or at work, air which is almost
identical with that of the mountains
or health resorts where the air is laden
with healing and health giving bal
sans.
No other medicine gives such prompt
relief as Hyomei in the treatment of
catarrh. The first breath soothes and
heals the irritated and smarting air
passages, and its regular use for a few
days or weeks will cure the most stub.
born cases.
Chas. W. Loomis will sell a Hyomei
outfit for S1.0O with his personal guar.
antee to refund the money if it does
not cure. You run no risk whatever
in buying Hyomei, for your word
decides the question as to whether
you pay for the remedy OF not.
