CATARRH SUFFERERS.
Good Thing to Know How to Get
Instant Relief.

If you now own Hyomei hard
rubber inhaler VanWerden & Kopp
wants you to know that they will
sell you a bottle of HYOMEI for
only SO cents.
Remember this, all who suffer
with catarrh-a bottle of HYOME1
in separate package and sold for so
cents, to accommodate the vast army
of people who already own Hyomei
inhaler.
VanWerden & Kopp viii sell it to
you at that price and give you the
opportunity to begin at once to rid
yourself of vile catarrh and the SNUFF
fing, hawking and splitting that 90
with it.
Many people through, years of
neglect have let catarrh get q strong
hold upon them. Some of these
people unreasonably think that one
bottle of HYOMEI ought to cure
them. .n..:~ - a.. .
They do not stop to. think that a
diseased condition that is tho result
Of negligence, cannot be overcome
in q week.
No matter how chronic your ca
tarrh troubles, HYOMEI is guaran-
teed by VanWerden & Kopp to cure
them II you give it half q chance.
Just breathe it, that's all, and its
healing, soothing, antiseptic proper
ties will make you feel better in 4
day. - ...s vi = H.. Il
If you own an inhaler get 50
cent bottle of HYOMEI at Van
Werden & Kopp's today. II you 10
not own q Hyomei inhaler, ask for
q complete OUTFIT, which consists of
an inhaler, . bottle of HYOMEI and
simple Instructions for use. This
complete sutfit costs $1.00, but you
then have an inhaler that will last
q lifetime.

CAUSE OF ECZEMA EXPLAINED.

After years of debate, medical au-
thorities are now agreed that ecZe-
ma and othe~ skin diseases are not
seated in tn blood. but are caused
by myriads of microscopic animals
gnawing the flesh Just below the epi-
dermis. The patient is perfectly
healthy: it is only the skin that is
diseased
Hence, scientists are nov agreed
that you must cure the skin through
the skin. The medicine must be in
liquid form in order to penetrate
properly, and We can say with CON
tidence that we have the true remedy
for eczema in our store.

soothing liquid you will find the itch
