CAUSE OF HAY FEVER.
Hyomei the Only cure-Gives Change Of
Climate in Your Own Home.


Fifty years ago hay fever had not
been named, but undoubtedly people suf-
fered then as now with sneezing. watery
eyes and excessive running at tie nose.
The direct causes appear to be heat.
dust and the pollen of flowers, and the
only treatment that physicians recon-
mended prior to the discovery OF Hyo-
mel was a change OF climate.
Now by using Hyomei you can save
an expensive trip to the mountains and
escape weeks OF suffering. This re-
markable treatment kills the germs OF
the disease and soothes and heals the
initiated mucous membrane. It really
gives you in your own home a change Of
climate and hay fever sufferers know
from past experience that this is the
only thing that has afforded them relief.
By breathing Hyomei a few times daily
you can save the expense of a trip to
the mountains and avoid the dangerous
hay fever
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, extra bottles so cents, ana consists
OF neat pocket inhaler, through which
Hyomei is breathed and which will last
a life-t time, a medicine dropper and a
bottle Of Hyomei Riekert & Wells of
the Red Cross Pharmacy offer to refund
the money if Hyomei does not do ali
that is claimed for it.
