The constant wearing of such spikes
may cause them to become sharp

from the murderous spikes which the

be Cured of Catarrh.
Nature has remedy for catarrh, a
treatment that is far better than dos
ing the stomach with medicine.
1t is the healing oils and balsams of
Hyomei which medicates the air you
breathe, reaching the most remote air
cells in the nose, throat and lungs,
killing all catarrhal germs, and restor-
ing health to the mucous membrane.
In using Hyomei you are treating
your catarrhal troubles with the only
natural remedy, for it gives curative
air bath to the air passages that has
as powerful healing and antiseptic
effect as that found in the mountains
where the pine forests give off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
Breath the invigorating and healing
Hyomei, and see how quickly you will
get relief from your catarrhal troubles
Mcbride & Will have seen so many
cures, even of the worst cases of
catarrh, with offensive BREATH raising
of mucus, frequent sneezing, droppings
in the throat and spasmodic coughing,
that they feel warranted in selling
Hyomei under an absolute guarantee
to refund the money if it does not do
all that is claimed for it. They take
all the risk.
