RoTtRMUND'S TEST.

II Will Cure Catarrh.

Rotermund has given Ryomei a
most thorough and remarkable test.
For long time he has offered to re.
fund the money to any purchaser Of
Hyomei, if it failed to benefit.
The remedy has made so many cures
among his customers that he has urged
its use in the most chronic cases of
catarrh.
Breathed for few minutes four
times day, through the inhaler that
comes with every outfit. it soothes
the irritated mucous membrane of the
nose. throat, and lungs, kills the
catarrhal germs, and restores complete
health. It's healing, antiseptic
fragrance penetrates to the most re-
mote air passages. as no medicine
taken into the stomach can possibly
do. Immediate relief almost ALWAYS
follows the use Of Hyomei, and great
benefit is seen after few days treat
ment.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
only 81, and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the pocket or
purse, and will last a lifetime, a
medicine dropper, and bottle of
Hyomei. il this is not sufficient for
! complete cure, additional bottles of
Hyomei can be obtained for 80 cents.
Compare this small expense with the |
lees charged by specialists. and re-
too, if Hyomei does not cure,
will return your money
