FROM THE PINE WOODS.
Hyomei's Aromatic Air Is Guar
anteed to Cure Catarrh or
Cost Nothing.

When using the Hyomei treatment,
the air YOU breathe is like that on the
mountains high above sea level whore the
pine woods fill the air with aromatic heal
ing that gives health and strength 10 those
suffering from diseases Of the respiratory
Z Breathed through the neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, the healing balsams Of Hyomei
reach the most remote air cells OF the
throat, nose and lungs, destroying all
catarrhal germs and giving quick relief
and cure.
Hyomei has performed almost miracu.
lous cures Of catarrh, often restoring
health in chronic cases that had given up
all hope Of recovery. Its best action is al
the start Of the disease, when the breath
is becoming offensive and when discharges
from the nose, droppiugs in the throat
and frequent sneezing or spasmodic cough
ing begin to make life a burden. At the
first symptom of catarrhal trouble, use
Hyomei and see how quickly you get
relief and cure.
The complete outfit costs but S1.00,
and is sold under guarantee 10 refund
the money ii it does not give satisfaction,

Only a glass 10 the barroom
Only a single glass;
Only a lack OF courage,
Only the answer, Yes
Only an evil companion,
Slyly Turing him on;
Only a 'free-hearted Charlie.
And the fatal work is done.
"Only "a little bit tlpsy.
Only bloodshot eyes;
Only q pleading mother
Only a wife's surprise;
Only an aching forehead.
Only a bruised face:
Only a broken promise,
Only a deep disgrace.
'only a cherries shanty,
Without fire or wood,
And the little half-eiad children
Waiting and crying for food;
Only curses for kisses
Only sorrow for woe;
Only a drunken father,
Only an angry blow.
SONY weeping children.
Only . dying wife;
Only another's promise,
Only a drunkard's life;
o, the woe and anguish.
That mortal tongue can tell
Only a glass in the barroom,
Only 8 drunkard's helli'.
