Hoarseness, by Using Hyomei.

When you catch cold you want to
get rid of it as quickly as you can.
You don't want to lie around the
house for week swallowing nauseat-
ing drugs. You know when you do
this that you are not only making
your own life miserable, but are a
nuisance to everyone about you.
Why not avoid all this; why not re-
lieve your cold in five minutes; why
net cure it over night? You can do it
by rising Hyomei, the sure and guar
anteed cure for colds, coughs, sore
throat, catarrh, bronchitis and asthma.
Hyomei is indicated and antiseptic
air; you breathe it into the lungs
through a small pocket inhaler, and
It's soothing influences as it passes
over the infiamed membrance of the
respiratory tract, stops the mucous
discharge, allays the inflammation, and

mel outfit costs 81 and Wilkinson &
Co. will refund your money if it fails
to cure.

stored to Health by Vinol
Our little daughter, six years of age,
after severe attack of the measles,
which developed into pneumonia, was
left pitifully thin, weak and emaciat-
ed. She had no appetite, and her stom-
ach was so weak it could not retain
food. She lay in this condition for
weeks, and nothing the doctor pre-
scribed did bit of good, and we were
beginning to think she would never re-
cover.
AT this time we commenced to give
her Vinol, and the effect was marvel
Gus. The doctor was amazed at her
progress, and when we told him we
We're giving her Vinol, he replied, 1t
is a fine remedy, keep 1t up We did
so, and she recovered her health and
strength months before the doctor
thought she could" ]. w. Flagg,

Vinol cures conditions like this be-

strengthens every organ in the body.
