PERIENCE.
Friends Glad to Know that His Annoying
Case Of Deafness Is Com
pletely Cured.

To all readers of the REGISTER,
who are troubled with deafness, the
experience of W. II. Crowl will be
the best ofnews.
For long time Mr.. Crowl has had
a serious case of deafness, the hearing
in one ear being entirely gone so that
in conversation he had to turn the
other ear to anyone addressing him.
This was the result Of a catarrhal
trouble which he had been treating
in many ways, but unsuccessfuny'
When he had given up all hopes OF
ever recovering his heaiing, Mr.. Crowl
purchased a Hyomei outfit at Rein
harris Pharmacy, and after using the
treatment says that his hearing has
been entirely restored. Mr.. Crowl
emphatically recommends Hyomei to
any one suffering from catarrhal
deafness. He says that "The sim
plicity with which Hyomei is used
recommends it to any class Of suffer-
ers. carry the inhaler in my vest
pocket and use it during the day with
out interfering with my duties.
Reinhart's Pharmacy have had a
large demand for Hyomei since Mr..
Crowls cure became known. They
sell the complete outfit for $l.OO, ex-
ira bottles for so cents, and show
their great faith in the remedy by
agreeing to refund the money should
an7 purchaser fail to find relief from
catarrhal troubles by using Hyomei.
