RELIEVES THE WORST
| CASES Of CATARH
Think "Hyomei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered" Ht

Do not try to cure catarrh by us
ing sprays or lotions; 1t can not be
cured In that manner. The only way
in which this too common disease can
be fully relieved is through direct
application to the affected parts that
will kill the bacilli OF catarrh and pre-
vent their growth.
Breathing the air of Hyomei is the
only known method of treatment
that can really accomplish this. II
is the simplest, most pleasant and
probably the most reliable treatment
for catarrh that has ever been dis
covered.
The complete Hyomei outfit Is in
expensive and consists of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect in
stant relief in ordinary cases, but
for chronic and deep-seated cases OF
catarrh longer use may be necessary,
and then an extra bottle OF Hyomei
can be obtained for q trifiing sum.
1t is not alone the best cit might be
called the only), method OF treating
catarrh. but 1t is also the most econ
omical.
G. II. Demaray has so much conf
dence In the power Of Hyomei to re-
lieve catarrh that he will for limit
ed time sell this medicine under his
personal guarantee to refund the
money II the purchaser can say that
1t did not benefit.

to pay $50.

er people succeeded in building up a
machine which met Hollis require
ments. but by the time 1t was com

alterations.
