FROM THE PINE WOODS
HYOMEI'S Aromatic Air Is Guar
anteed to Relieve Catarrh or Cost
Nothing.

HYOMEI is natures true remedy
for catarrh. There is no stomach
dosing in using HYOMEI, no more
than there is when you go to the
mountains or the seashore to get relief
from lung troubles.
When using the HYOMEI treatment
the air you breathe is like that on the
mountains - Th above sea level where
the pine y Is fill the air with aro-
matte heai.ng that gives health and
strength 10 those suffering from dis
eases of the respiratory organs.
Breathed through the neat pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit
the healing balsams of HYOMEI reach
the most remote air cells of the throat,
nose and lungs, restroying all ca
tarrhal germs and giving quick relief.
HYOMEI pronounced High-o-me)
has performed almost miraculous
cures of catarrh, often restoring health
in chronic cases that had given up all
hope of recovery. Its best action is at
the start of the disease when the
breath is becoming offensive, and
when discharges from the nose, drop
pings in the throat and frequent
SneeZing, shifting or spasmodic
coughing begin to make life a bur-
den. At the first symptom of ca
tarrhal trouble, such shifting and
hawking, use HYOMEI and see how
quickly you get relief.
The complete outfit costs but S1.00,
extra bottles, if later needed so cents.
and is sold under guarantee to refund
the money if it does not give satisfac-
ton Druggists everywhere.-Adv.

please the people in any contingency.
