Captain Willnefs Remarkable Escape
Shows What to do in Time Of
Trouble.
For many years. Captain Willnef.
says the Times Of Gloucester. Mass.
was one OF the best known seamen in
the Gloucester Fleet The sea and
its dangers had no terror for him. but
the catarrhal troubles with which he
suffered for fifteen years made him
dread the nights at sea, for he had to
walk the cabin floor, being unable to
lie down and sleep on account of the
constant catarrhal dropping.
Captain Willnef went to two different
hospitals for treatment. but could get
no lasting benefit. He constantly
raised yellow and green phlegm and
his trouble became so unbearable and
nauseating that he was ashamed to
90 out in company. When despairing
of ever getting relief, his wife pur-
chased a Hyon1el outfit for him, and
trying it before going 10 bed. he en-
joyed the first whole nights sleep for
ten years. Captain Willnef says Il

Hyomei and have been cure by the
remedy. MY friends ask me what is
responsible for my Improvement, and
| tell them Hyomei which has given
me fun mid complete recovery

our readers what to do in time OF

to refund the money if it does not give
