treatment, and can thankfully testify
that HyOmei does cure this terrible
disease. Since using it my hearing is
greatly improved, and the only time |

ways get instant relief. My friends
and acquaintance marvel at the
change in my health and hearing"
HyOmei has made many cures of
catarrh, and in connection with Hyo-
