NATURES CATARRH CURE.
Sensible and Scientific Way TO Cure
This Disagreeablc Disease.

Nearly everyone suffers at one
time or another with catarrh.
The natural way to cure this dis
agreeble disease is by applying
healing indications direct to the
diseased spot.
In no other way can this be done
as naturally as by the use of Hy-
omei, breathed through the neat
pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit.
Put several drops of Hyomei in
the inhaler and then for a few min
utes, four or five times day, lei
the air you breathe come through IT,
In that way all the air that enters
the nasal passages. the throat or the
lungs, is filled with Hyomei's heal
ing medication, reaching the most re-
mote air cells of the respiratory or
gans, destroying all catarrhal germs
and soothing and healing the irri-
tated mucous membrane.
A few days use of Hyomel will
show how quickly It relieves all
catarrhal conditions, and you will
not have to use it long before you
find it has effected a complete and
lasting cure.
So strong is C. c. Cases faith in
the power of Hyomei to cure ca
tarrhal troubles that with every dol
lars outfit he gives a guarantee to re
fund the money unless the remedy
gives satisfaction. He takes all the
responsibility and you cannot af-
ford TO suffer longer with catarrh
when an offer like this is made tc
you.
Should extra bottles of Hyomei be
needed they can be obtained for soc
making this one of the most econom-
zeal as we'll as the most reliable
remedies for catarrh that is known.
