HY0MEl.
Cures catarrh and Prevents cOlds-No
Stomach Dosing, just Breathe II.

AT this season Of the year, catarrhal
troubles are very prevalent, and near
" every person suffers to a certain ex-
tent.
Catarrh is actually tue result Of a
succession Of colds and can be e1sily
prevented if the proper treatment IS
followed
Hyomei is a natural yet scientific
cure for the colds and grip trnnsses
that lead to catarrh. as well as posi-
tive cure for the disease itself.
The balsamic air of Hyomel breath
ed through the small pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit IS filed
with germ-killing and hcalth-giving
qualities that penetrate to the minut-
est air cells Of the head, throat and
lungs. 1t kills all catarrhal ger,as,
frees the mucous membrane from poi
sonous microbes, and makes a perfect
and complete cure OF catarrh.
The complete outfit costs only 81,
while extra bottles Of Hyomei can be
procured for SOC. Peoples drug store
sells Hyomei on the no cure, no pay
plan, and viii refund the money If it
falls to give perfect satisfaction. You
take no risk whatever in using Hyo-
mel. II IS the only treatment sold un-
der a guarantee Of this nature where
a leading local druggist agrees to re-
turn the money if the treatment fails
to cure.
