HARMFUL STOMACH DOSING.
Nc Need of 1t Whsn Hyomsi is Used
to Cure Catarrh.

Physicians and scientists agree that the
less medicine one swallows, the better.
1t is in keeping with this idea that Hy-
omei is recommended by leading phys
icians throughout this and other ca
tarrhal sections.
When this treatment is used in ca
tarrhal troubles, there is no stomach
dosing, for the medicine is taken in
with the air you breathe, and goes right
to the spot where the catarrhal germs
are present, healing the infamed and
irritated mucous membrane, killing the
disease germs and entering the blood
with the oxygen, driving all catarrhal
germs from the system.
Do not try to cure catarrh of the head
by putting medicine into your stomach
--this'is neither a scientific nor COM
nonsense treatment. Breath the heal
ing balsams of Hyomei and in few
days you will notice relief, and its con-
tinued use will result in complete and
lasting cure.
Dodson's Pharmacy has seen so many
cures made by Hyomei amongst their
customers, several of them cases where
all hope of relief had been given up,
that they give an absolute guarantee of
cure. or money will be refunded with
every outfit they sell,
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, while extra bottles of Hyomei, if
need, are Onty so cents.
