If few years ago some one had
said you could treat catarrh by breath
ing air charged with a healing balSam,
the idea would have been ridiculed
and il remained for that eminent in

treatment.
HyOmei has performed almost
miraculous results in treating catarrh
and is today recognized by thousands
of people as the only advertised rem
edy for catarrh that can be relied up
on TO do just what it claims. The COM
plcte outfit of HyOmei is inexpensive
and consists of an inhaler. a medicine
dropper and a bottle of HyOmei.
Breathe the air OF HyOmei through
the little inhaler druggists furnish with
il for a few minutes four times a day
and il viii help the worst cases of ca
tarrh, II sOOthes and heals the mu-
cOus membranes of the air passages

plete and lasting relief
In South Bend there are scores of
well known people who have been re
lieved of catarrh by HyOmei. If it does
not help you w. *. Wettick will return
the money you paid for Hyomei. This
is the strongest evidence that can be
offered as To his faith in this remedy.

in May, 1918 he pleaded guilty to,
a charge of embezzling about
$4,000 of state funds, was par
doned by Governor Earl Brewer
late Thursday afternoon, and is a
free man. The chief executive
jepas.sns i,ons ms usual custom
OF late, gave Yerger an uncon-
ditional pardon. which restores
his citizenship and shows the
confidence that Governor Brewer
has in this young man.
Yerger was arrested following
a discovery of his shortage by
H. A. Pagan. special auditor. who
looked over the books during the
famous penitentiary probe in the
early part of 1918, and which
was instituted by Governor
Brewer. When Yergel was
called to the governors office to
explain certain notations in the
books he confessed his guilt and
said he was ready to take his
punishment. He did not fight
the charge, but went quietly in
to the circuit court room a few
days later, pleaded guilty receiv-
ed his sentence and then began
serving his term.
