CATARRH CAN Be CURED,

Kill the Germs by Breathing
Hy-O-mei Gives Quick Relief.
Many people who have suffered with
catarrh for years naturally think they
cannot be cured, and become discour-
aged.
The reason they have failed of cure
is because they have not treated the
disease with the local remedy, Hy-o-
mel, which is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler SO that its healing med
icated air reaches the remote air cells
kills all catarrh germs and restores
the mucous membrane of the nose,
throat and lungs to a healthy condi-
ton.
Catarrh is really a local disease and
to ure it, it must be treated by a
remedy which reaches every spot in
the nose and throat where the disease
germs lodge. Hy-o-mei does this
and gives relief from the first days
use.
A complete Hy-o-mei outfit costs
but $1.00 and F. D. Pierce gives a
guarantee with every package to re-
fund the money unless it cures.

Z The q claim-or accusation per-

of American humor have found some
thing deliciously funny in a series of
jingles recently printed in the Wom-
ans Home Companion. The original
"Joe Bing" set of verses by John D.
Larkin describing the wonderful deeds
of valor and industry performed by
Joe Bling sin Luscomb's grocery
store" created such widespread COM
ment and interest that the Woman's
Home Companion conducted a prize
contest, in which almost four thousand
jingles were subm tied. The prize
winning jingle vas submitted by John
Nesbit, of New Jersey, who contrib
uted SIS his appreciation of "Joe
Bing's" might this bit of verse:
JOE .BING GOES FISHING.
"Joe Bing he, caught a monstrous eel,
And with a steady pull,
He hauled it in for half an hour
Until his boat was full.
He had to cut the thing in two,
His boat could hold no more.

rejoice in this" comments the editor
of the Woman's Home Companion.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the mucoas lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is infam-
ed you have rumbling sound or i1nper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can de taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

Macklin showed him shells and

absence of any scars in the post
had convinced him that his men
were guilty, and the fact that the
