Hyomei Cured Bronchial catarrh After

TIC T1do 1tSSu w iu OCoPdus
For many years have been suf-

despaired nf anything like cure.
Judge of my pleasant surprise when I
first used Hyomei, which brought COM
plete relief. Hyomei has been'a VERT
able godsend."
Rev. Charles Hartley, Sardinia, Ohio.
There are many readers of the Argus
who are suffering from catarrh, either
nasal or bronchial. Many of these
despair of ever being cured. They have
soaked their stomachs with nostrums
until they are disguised with all medi-
cines. and are now travelling their mis-
cradle way, allowing the devilish germs
of catarrh 20 sap them of their health,
energy and vitality.
| But let us reason together. H. o.
Rolls. the druggist, has guaranteed
remedy for catarrh, colds, coughs,
bronchitis, Group. and all inflamma-
tory diseases of the nose, throat and
bronchial tubes. The name of this
remarkable remedy is Hyomei and
if it doesn't cure H. o. Rolls will give
you your money back.

through the inhaler over the inflamed
