Simple but Sure
Hyomei, the Great Catarrh
Remedy. "Just Breathe IT.
and be Cured.

Do not try TO cure catarrh, head
colds or s"Gffles by taking drugs
These common but dangerous all
ments that often cause the ioss OF
hearing cannDt be cured that way.
The commonsense method is TO
breathe Hyomei, which gets the med
ication right where it is needed to
heal the raw and infamed lining of
the air passages.
Hycmei is mixture of antiseptic
oils-you breathe it-no bother; no
disagreeable medicine; simply use the
inhaler a few times daily and this
healing medication will quickly soothe
and heal the irritated tissues, stop
distressing choking and unclean dis
charges = you breathe freely - dull
headaches cease, and every catarrhal
symptom soon vanishes.
There is nothing more simple and
safe to use, or that gives such rapid
and lasting benefit as Hyomei-and F.
d. Pierce sells it on the "No- cure no.
pay" plan.
