CATARRH REMEDY

Dosing the stomach won't kill Ca
tarrh germs. Neither will sprays,
douches, snufrs or ointments.
The quickest way to kill germs is to
breath deep into the lungs the vapor-
lied air of Booths HYOMEl.
As this antiseptic air passes over the
sore spots infested with Catarrh germs,
il not only destroys them, but heals
the inflamed membrane and stops the
discharge of mucus.
Then hawking, splitting, snutiing,
crust in nose and foul breath will dis
appear, and vile, disgusting Catarrh
will be conquered.
