REMEDY FOR HAY FEVER
After Trying other Treatments, HyOmei
Was Used With Perfect Success.


Before the discovery Of Hyomei the
ony advice a physician could give his
hay fever patients, was to 60 away from
home, but now anyone who is subject
to this disease can, if Hyomei is used,
stay at home without fear Of the annual
attack Of sneezing, watery eyes, and
other discomforts.
J. f. Forbes a we'll known Western
railroad man, whose HON is at McCook,
Nebraska, writes; Il have never had
any relief from any remedy for hay
fever, even temporarily, until / dis
covered the merits Of Hyomei. l al
ways recommend it when occasion re-
quires."
There is no offensive or dangerous
stomach dosing when Hyomei is used.
This reliable remedy for the cure of all
diseases of the respiratory organs is
breathed through a neat pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, so that
the air taken into the throat and lungs
is like that of the White Mountains
or other health resorts, where hay fever
IS unknown.
The fact that Rickert & Wells agree
to refund the money to any hay fever
sufferer who uses Hyomei without sue
cess should inspire confidence in its pow
er to effect cure. A complete outfit
costs only $500 and extra bottles but
50 cents.

through my mind that my charmer

the sake of the contrast. AS Miss

for children, saw peculiar look on
Miss Deans face. But an instant later

Ben sat down on the extreme end Of

Ben, catching at straws and hoping he
was the son OF prophet at least.
But his remark must have sounded
extremely funny, for II was received
with a storm of applause Tom went

riment asking the girls to give three
cheers for ''the way out"
When the shadows heightened and
everybody was getting everybody else's

howled louder. Never was young

I don't know what magic she used,
