Finally there isa great shortness Of
breath, smothering spells, sitting up
to breathe, cough, faint spells, some
times nausea and vomiting, ever burs-
ting Of the limbs and a lingering and
wretched death II the dropsy is not
removed.
DR.. Miles homeopathic Treatment
is the result Of 30 years research and
experience. 1t is far 10 advance OF
usual methods. 1t relieves the first
day and removes swelling in a week In

MUCH CONCERN Z
Ordinary Methods for Treating Ca
tarrh Prove Unsuccessful.

Written statistics that show an In
crease In catsrrh have shaken conf
dence in the usual prescriptions to
safeguard human health from the
rayages OF this disease.
When stomach dosing was proven
ineffective, 1t was natural TO look for
sore other treatment, and 1t Is be-
lieved that In Hyomei al absolute cure
for ali catarrhal troubles has at last
been found. Inhaled with the air
you breathe, Its healing medication
reaches every part Of the nos and
throat, and sootheS the irritated mu-
ceus membrane so that relief is almost
instant, while lasting cure is practi-
cally sure to follow.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, and Ia sold by Otis Purdy un-
der an absolute agreement to refund
the money II it does not give satisfac-
ton.
