To say that the total valuation Of
the wealth OF the United States is
100000 c00o00 IS not Understandable
as a hundred billion dollars is such a

CATARRH GROWING LESS.
Due to the Use Of Hyomei-cures
Without Stomach Dosina.

Inquiry at the local drug stores
shows that the sale or remedies for

were formerly bought gross al a time
are now purchased In half dozen ,o's
and are rarely called :or
There Is one notable exception 10
this decrease in sale, and that Is
HyomeL This remedy Is, In fact. ra-
sponsible for the decrease In sale OF
catarrh medicines, as 1t has made so
many cures Of catarrhal troubles that
naturally there is much less demand

People who have been trying df-
ferent medicines for catarrh for many
years were induced 10 begin the use
Of HyOmeI by T. F. Laurin's guar
