ONLY ONE Way TO
RETAIN HEALTH
Young Man With New Theory Says All De-
ponds on Stomach.

L. T. Cooper's theory regarding the
human stomach is rapidly becoming a
topic of universal discussion. Cooper
claims that the human stomach has be-
core chronically deranged by modern
conditions, and that sickness generally
Is the result.
In I, recent interview, while intro
ducing his medicine in a leading city,
Mr.. Cooper said: There is just one
way, in my opinion. to maintain gen.
eral health, and that is by building up
the digestive organs. The vast major
ity of Americans today have weak.
flabby, Gistended stomachs. This has
been caused by many generations of
overlooking and lack of exercise. until
today the entire civilized race is at
fected. This Is the true cause of most
of the i'll health of today. Little can
b" done to relieve II until the stomach
is once more brought back to normal
conditions.
Il am successful because my prept-
ration puts the stomach in sound con-
dition. and as l maintain this is the
only way to cccurc general and per-
manent good health"

FROM THE PINE WOODS.
Hyomefs Aromatic Air is Guaranteed
to Cure Catarrh or Cost Nothing.

Hyomei is natures true cure Cor
catarrh. There is no stomach dosing
in using Hyomei. no more than there
is when you go to the mountains or
the sea-shore to get relief from lung
troubles.
When using the Hyomei treatment,
the air you breath is like that on the
mountains high above sea level where
the pine woods fill the air with
aromatic healing that gives health and
strength to those suffering from
diseases Of the respiratory organs.
Breathed through the neat pocket in
haler 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 re-
lief and cure
Hyomei has performed almost
miraculous cures of catarrh. often
restoring health in chronic cases that
had given up all hope of recovery. It's
best action is at the start of the dis
ease, when the breath is becoming
offensive and when discharges from
the nose, droppings in the throat and
frequent sneezing or spasmodic
coughing begin to make life burden.
At the first symptom of catarrhal
trouble. use Hyomei and see how
quickly YOU get relief and cure.
The complete outfit costs but s1.0o
