The disturbance OF water courses mag
bring about the infection Of wells and

Drive Catarrh Germs
From Nose and Throat
Only Way to Really End Catarrh
Is to Destroy the Germs
Causing Ii.


The germs of catarrh breed,
thrive and multiply by the million
far up in the air passages of the
nose, throat and lungs Of every
catarrh victim. You cannot get
rid of the disease until you get
rid of the germs.
You can't kill germs with oint-
ments or lotions or blood purifi-
ers.
There is just one safe, sensible
and invariably reliable way to
reach and destroy catarrh germs
and thus stop catarrh forever.
Breathe into your nose, throat
and lungs the medicated. germ
killing air of Hyomei which is
made from the pure, healing oil
of Eucalyptus combined with
powerful germicidal ingredients
which are certain death to every
catarrh germ they reach. The air
of Hyomei breathed deeply is so
penetrating it reaches into every
nook, corner and crevice of your
nose, throat and lungs where
germs can possibly hide or breed.
Its an easy treatment. You'll like
to breathe Hyomei. It's odor and
effect Is pleasant to everyone but
the mischief making germs them
selves. They don't like it, simply
can't stand 1t and are completely
driven from your body taking
Catarrh itself with them. Hyomei
is a standard preparation recog-
nized by physicians and druggists
everywhere. 1t is so we'll thought
of here that Crown Drug Co. Ia
coma, and many other leading
druggists in this vicinity sell 1t
with an absolute guarantee of
successful cure or money back.
No catarrh sufferer therefore as
sumes any risk in giving It a
trial. Tear this notice out of the
paper now and show 1t to your
druggist as you ask for Hyomei.
Be sure to ask him for the COM
plete Hyomei outfit as this con-
tains an inhaling device which is
very necessary to use to get the
best results.
