A SURPRISED MINISTER. Hyomei Cured Bronchial Cstarrh Aft CT He Had Given Up in Despair.

For many years I have been a sufferer from bronchial catarrh, and had despaired of anything like a cure Judge of my pleasant surprise when I first used Hyomei, which brought complete relief. Hyomei has been veritable godsend. Rev. Charles. Hartley, Sardinia, Ohio.
 There are many readers of The Re publican who suffer from catarrh, either nasal or bronchial Many of these despair of ever being cured. They have soaked their stomachs with nostrums until they are disgust ed with all medicines, and are now travelling their miserable way, allow ing the devilish germs of catarrh to sap them of their health, energy and vitality.
 But let us reason together. Larson, the druggist, has guaranteed rem edy for catarrh, colds. coughs, bron- chitis. croup, and all inflammatory diseases of the nose, throat and bron- chial tubes The name of this re- markable remedy is Hyomei, and if it does not cure, the Larson Drug Co will give you your money back.
 Hyomei (pronOunced High O-me) is medicated air; you just breathe 1t through the inhaler over the inflamed and germ ridden membrane, and it's soothing antiseptic properties will al lay the inflammation, destroy the germs, and restore the entire respira- tory tract to it's normal conditions.
 A complete HyOmei outfit, includ- ing a hard rubber inhaler, costs but SIOO, and an extra bottle of HyOmei, if afterwards needed, costs gut 50 cents. See the Larson Drug Co. about il today

Be ing personally popular there will be many to extend to her cordial greet ings and best wishes for happiness and prosperity.
 The groom has been. resident of Phoenix about six years but they have been years of activity and bus mess hastling and have given him considerable prominence in the com munity and high standing for his talents and personal integrity.

When the boom started in Kelvin camp he was sent there as the Kelvin representative of a local bank and conducted the Kel- win branch until the panic of year ago. He was also attached to the staff of The Republican as a special contributor during his residence in those parts.
 Since his return to Phoenix he has been employed in the Valley Bank, now capably filling the position of receiving teller. He is a young man of excellent habits and is held in high regard by all who know him. The best wishes of the community will attend both Mir. and Mrs. Car mody.
