Odd Notice in Prominent Southern Paper
Of Interest to Grand Rapids Residents.

One of the best known newspapers
in the South is the "Guide" of Dunn
+. c. Its publisher, j. P. Pitman
sends us the following clipping with
request to publish:
"Found,-by the editor of the
Guide, a bottle of Hyomei, the won.
derful treatment that cures catarrh
without stomach dosing. We can
speak in highest praise of it's remark.
able power to cure aud relieve ca.
tarrh Of the head and throat. This
mention is made not as an adver-
tiSement, but in the interest of those
who suffer the torture of that terrible
disease, catarrh."
In sending the clipping, Mr.. Pit.
man wrote the following letter:
II enclose a little piece from: my
paper, issued to-day. You will see
from this that | desire to push the
selling of Hyomei as far as possible.
/ am using it in my own family, and
find that it gives the desired relief,
so that l take pleasure in spreading
far and near the knowledge of this
sure relief for catarrh.''
John E. DAILY, in preparation for the
catarrhal troubles of this season of
the year, has ordered a large stock
of Hyomei, and sells it under guaran-
tee TO refund the money if it does not
relieve. The complete outfit costs
but 81, and extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for 80 cents. Ask him to show
you the strong guarantee under which
he sells it.. This remarkable remedy

complete cure Of the worst case of
