CATARRHAL TROUBLES prevail
ENT.
Spring Months Cause Catarrh
Breathe Hyomel, and Be
Cured.

Catarrhal troubles are more common
at this season than at any other time of
the year. The sudden changes that
come during the spring months are pro-
ductive of many cases of catarrh that
without proper treatment will become
chronic.
The pleasantest, most convenient, and
only scientific method for the treatment
and cure of eatarrh, is Hyomei. Simply
put twenty drops in the little pocket
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
and then breathe it for three minutes
four times day.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
one dollar, and as the inhaler will last a
lifetime and there is sufficient Hyomei
for several weeks trea tment, it is the
most economical catarrhal remedy
known. Extra bottles can be procured
for fifty cents. Ask L. P. Van Werden
to show you the strong guarantee under
which he sells Hyomei.
