Proper Love for wife.

when a man really loves his wife
he ought to combine all his incest
sentiments toward other women into
one big sentiment for her.
HE should show her the respect he
feels toward his mother. the polite
ness he shows other women and the
responsibility he feels toward his sis
ter.
ITO all Of that he should add the
great love he should feel for a wife"

What Is Hyomei?
You Have Heard About the Catarrh

Hyomei is a wonderful antiseptic,
so powerful that it promptly destroys
germ life. yet its action on the mucous
membrane is extremely soothing and
healing. 1t relieves catarrh in five
minutes: it cures in a few weeks or
money back.
1t is made chiefly of eucalyptus and
eucalyptol taken from the eucalyptus
forests of inland Australia. The med
ical profession knows that eucalyp-
tus is an absolutely certain germ de

of eucalyptus as a base Hyomei is

largely employed in the Listerian
System. Guaiacol and other i'm
portant medicinal agents are also in
cluded in the Hyomei formula, which,
without doubt, is the greatest destroy
