THE TRUTH
ABOUT CATARRH
A Germ Disease That Can Be Stopped
BY Killing Germs Which Cause 1t

A good many claims are made for this
and that remedy for Catarrh and doubt.

ease, you have yourself tried many of
them and received no permanent

The fact remains however, that there
is a way to get rid of catarrh forever
and certainly the method most likely
to succeed and to cure where all else
has failed is one that your own drug.
gist has so much faith in that he will
sell it to you on positive guarantee
of success or money back.
That's exactly the way that II. C.
Kennedy and many other leading drug
gists in this vicinity are selling Hyomei,
the great Catarrh germ-killer, a wonder
full medicated but pleasant smelling air
which you breathe into your nose,
throat and lungs through small in
haling device that druggists furnish
with it. Hyomei is made from the pure
healing oil of Eucalyptus, combineo
with other powerful germicidaI ingredi.
ents and it not only clears up the head
and air passages and heals the sore,
swollen infamed membranes of your
nose and throat but it goes further and
does more. Its penetrating air is alb,
solute and positive death to every ca
tarrh germ in your system. 1t destroys
them utterly. And when the germs 90
the disease and all its disagreeable symp-
toms stop. If you have Catarrh breathe
HyOmei. It's the only sensible thing to
do and you gain nothing and lose much
by waiting. Don't trust to memory.
Cut this out of the paper now and take
it into your druggist the very next time
you pass his store. Insist on getting the
complete outfit which incuces rne free

to use this inhaler to get best results.
