EASY WAY TO CURE CATARRH
Breathe Hy0mei and Kill All Catarrhal
Germs. "MOney Back If 1t Fails"
Say Dawson Drug Co.

There is no dangerous stomach drug
ging when using Hyomei. The heal
ing and aromatic balsams which COM
pose this wonderful treatment are
breathed through pocket inhaler
that comes with every ST. outfit.
In this way the germ killing and
health-giving Hyomel penetrates to
the most remote cells of the lungs. 1t
searches out and kills disease germs
in the air passages of the head, throat
and nose, soothes and heals the lrri-
Gated mucous membrane, and absolute
ly drives catarrh from the system.
Such remarkable results have fol-
lowed the use of Hyomei by the best
people in Dawson that the Dawson
Drug Co, have the greatest confidence
in it's power to cure catarrh. They
believe in it so thoroughly that they
will give their personal guarantee to
refund the money if it does not cure,
the purchaser to be the sole Judge.
This Is an unusual offer, and the
first time that any medicine or treat
ment for the cure of catarrh has been
sold in this way. If it cures the ex-
pense is trihing, while if it fails the
cost is absolutely nothing.
If you are fortunate enough not to
be troubled with catarrh tell your
friends of the Dawson Drug Co.'S. offer
and get them to take advantage of it.
