EASY TO CURE CATARRH
Just Breathe In Hyomei, the Dry Air
That Kills the Germs

You can do exactly what G.. J. Ster.
ers did by using Hyomei. Read this:
after having suffered from chronic
catarrh for years. for which ] tried
various remedies without success, /.
became almost discouraged. After
reading about Hyomei, decided to
make one more effort to rid myself
of the dread disease, and to my great
delight l found the use Of two bot
ties of the Inhalent sufficient to pro-
duce complete cure. l now take
pleasure in recommending this rem
edy to all sufferers from catarrh.
G. ]. Sterers, Crown City, Ohio.
We don't simply say Hyomei will
cure catarrh, but we say that w. u.
Gokay, the druggist, guarantees 1t to
cure catarrh, or money back. He
does more-he guarantees 1t to cure
asthma, bronchitis, hay fever. coughs
and colds. A complete Hyomei out
fit, including inhaler, costs only 800
and extra bottles, IL you afterwards
need one, will cost but 80 cents. You
just breathe it In, and as 1t passes
over the infamed membrane, 1t kills
the germs of catarrh, and allays ell
