SERIOUS CATARRH
YIELDS TO HYOMEI
Also One of the Best Remedies for
Head Colds or Bronchitis.

Be wise in time and use Hyomei at
the first symptom of catarrh, such as
frequent colds, constant shifting,
droppings in the throat. or dull head
aches. Do not let the disease become
deep seated for it will surely wreck
your health, often causing the loss of
hearing, and if not checked may result
in one of the most dreaded diseases.
Hyomei is natures true remedy for
catarrh--it is the direct method-you
breathe it so that the medication goes
right to the sore and diseased tissues
lining the air passages of the head
and throat. Its antiseptic healing must
begin at once.
It's no bother to use Hyomei. Simp-
ly put a few drops of the liquid into
the inhaler, that comes with everS
complete outfit, and breathe it. You
will feel better after the first breath
of Hyomei. 1t clears the head and
throat like magic; while after few
days use you will notice all your ca
tarrhal symptoms are disappearing.
There is nothing easier, quicker or
more satisfying than Hyomei for ca
tarrh ills. 1t is not merely a relief but
a sure and lasting beneiit-and most
economical. All druggists sell Hyo-
mel, while Bowditch- Webster Co. will
supply anyone on the guarantee of
money back if they are not satisfied.

Another number that was funny

acting of the part of Adelaide was one
