least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
it's stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only posi-
tive cure now known to the medi-
cal fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing

much faith in it's curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars

A BUSINESS MELODY.

There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise,
For when he marked the prices down
He then did advertise.
And when he saw his trade increase,
With all his might and main,
He marked still lower every price
And advertised again.
New York Morning Journal.
And when he advertised again
His rivals loudly swore
To see folks rush with might and main
To patronize his store
And while they sat in solitude
And saw him custom win,
That man behind the counter stood
And raked the shekels in.
-Charlestown News
And when he raked the shekels in,
And saw his fortune rising,
He took a goodly lot of tin
And kept on advertising,
Each day a generous sum he'd sink,
And demonstrate full plain
The more one pays for printers ink
The greater is his gain.
And when he had grown rich,
And everybody knew him,
His ads We're multiplied,
That no one should outdo him.
For the secret of success,
The life of every enterprise,
Is not in the beginning,
But continuing to advertise.

Quickly Cures Coughs,
Colds and Catarrh

If you, dear reader, could spend
an hour looking over a few of the
thousands of testimonials that we
have on file, you would not go on
suffering from catarrh, that dis
gusting disease that will surely sap
your vitality and weaken your en-
tire system if allowed to continue.
You would have just as much faith
in HYOMEI as we have, and we have
so much confidence in it's wonderful
curative virtue that it is sold the
country over under a positive guar
antee to cure catarrh, Group, sore
throat, coughs and colds or money
back.
No stomach dosing when you
breathe HYOMEI. Just pour a few
drops of the liquid into the inhaler,
and breathe it in.
1t is mighty pleasant to use; it
opens up those stuffed-up nostrils in
two minutes, and makes your head
feel as clear as a bell in a short
time.
Breathe HYOMEI and kill the ca
tarrh germs. It's the only way to
cure catarrh. It's the only way to
get rid of that constant hawking,
snuffling and splitting.
A complete HYOMEI outfit, which
includes a bottle of HYOMEI and a
hard rubber pocket inhaler, costs 81
at druggists everywhere or at G.. w.
Peips. If you already own a Hyo-
mel inhaler you can get an extra
bottle of HYoMEI for so cents.
