CATARRH YIELDS
To Healing. Air of Hyomei. Sold
Uuder Guarantee by w.
l.. GOkay.

Catarrh Is the most prevalent d.
sease known TO humanity. Probably
ninety per cent of the people in this
country suffer at one time or another
with this common disease.
1t is germ disease and hence can
be cured only by some method that
will reach and destroy the germs.
This is best found in Hyomei, which
may be called the direct method OF
treating catarrh, as its medication,
taken In with the air you breathe, goes
directly to every air cell in the nose,
throat and lungs kills all catarrhal
germs; heals the irritated mucous
membrane and vitalizes the tissues SO
as to render catarrh no longer pos
sible.
The unique way In which Hyomei is
sold should dispel all doubt as to its
curative properties. for w. l.. Gokay
gives their absolute guarantee to re-
fund the price to any catarrh sufferer
that Hyomei fails to benefit. You
do not risk cent in testing its heal
ing powers, What offer could be more
fair to you than this, where a lead.
ing druggist takes all the risk of Hy
omei giving satisfaction, and leaves
you to be the Judge,
