NATURE CATARRH cure,
Sensible and Scientific Way to Cure
This Dtsagyeeabie Disease.

Nearly everyone suffers at one time
or another with catarrh.
The natural way to cure this dis
agreeable disease is by applying heal
ing indications direct to the diseased
spot.
In no other way can this be done as
naturally as by the use of Hyomei,
| breathed through the neat pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit
Put several drops of Hyomei in the
| inhaler and then for a few minutes,
four or five times day, let the air you
breath come through it. In that way
all the air that enters the nasal pas
sages; the throat or the lungs is filled
with Hyomei's healing medication,
reaching the most remote air cells of
the respiratory organs, destroying all
catarrhal germs and soothing and heal
ing the irritated mucous membrane.
A few days use ofHyomei will show
how quickly it relieves all catarrhal
conditions, and you will not have to
use it long before you find it has eff
fected complete and lasting cure.
So strong is Dodson's Drug Store
faith in the power of Hyomei to cure
catarrhal troubles that with every
dollar outfit they give a guarantee to
refund the money unless the remedy
gives satisfaction, they take all the re-
sponsibility and you cannot afford to
suffer longer with catarrh when an of
fer like this is made to you.
Should extra bottles of Hyomei be
needed they can be obtained for soc
making this one of the most economical
as we'll rs the most reliable remedies for
atarrh that is known. IL, %. /.
