Many holders of cotton, despairing of

being held may have been carried ov3r
from last seasons crop, when values

for Catarrh.
No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are ad-

superior to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glaes. Their
composition is secret, but Hyomei gives
its formula to all reputable physicians
and is prescribed by them generally.
The only way to cure catarrh and all
other diseases of the respiratory organs
is to breathe Hyomei.
This treat ment has been so successful
in currug SO per cent, of all who
have used 1t, that Hyomei is now sold
by J. G. Dodson under an absolute GU
aranree to refund the money in case it
does not benefit. You run no risk what
