CATARRH IS DURABLE.
Successful Experiments in Abating
and Curing This Common Disease.

Catarrh is an entirely unnecessary
disease and should not be tolerated
for a single day now that IIyomei Is
50 generally known and has made 50
towns.
Until comparatively recent times
disease and stomach dosing the only
treatment. Modern science finally
disproved this idea Of the cause of
catarrh, and found that it was a germ
disease and. after many experiments,
the remedy was decided to be Hyomei.
Hyomei mcdicates the air You
breathe: it kills the catarrhal germs;
it heals the sinarting and raw mem
branes of the passages in the nose
and throat; it cures all catarrhal
troubles.
AS there is life and health in the air
in the mountain-tOps where the pine
forests give off their fragrant and
healing balsams. so there is life and
health in breathing Hyonei. There is
no need of suffering from catarrh if
the simple and natural treatment of
Hyomei is used.
So sure is this prescription to cure
even the worst cases of catarrh, that
Bowditch. Webster & Co, sell it under
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money if it does not do all that is
claimed for it. There is no ifs and
ands about this guarantee. If Hyomei
should fail to give satisfaction, simply

uric acid from the blood, permitting
these substances to remain in the veins
and decompose. usually settling about
the joints and muscles, causing the
