CATARRH GERMS
EASILY KILLED
Only Way to Cure This Disease Is To
Destroy Its Cause.

II you have catarrh and want to get rid
of it you must kill the germs which cause
catarrh. Stomach dosing. ointments.
sprays. creams, douches, etc, fail because
they overlook this fact. They all help by
giving temporary relief but they do not
reach the germ life that has found lodge
ment in your head, nose, throat. and
could not destroy 1t IL they did.
The best known way of destroying the
dangerous germs Of Catarrh and conse-
quently ending the disease itself. Is to
breathe into the air passages of your
nose and throat the pleasant, penetrating
air of Hyomei pronounced High-o.me):
Hyomei is made from purest oil OF
full. healing, antiseptic and germicidal in
gradients. You breathe it through lit
tie pocket inhaler which Bowditch- Web
ster & Co. and other leading druggists in
Augusta and vicinity are furnishing with
every complete treatment sold. Every
time you inhale the sweet, fragrant air
Of Hyomei through this little device you
are drawing into your swollen, infiamed
germ laden membranes indicated air
which will not only reduce all the swell.
ing and Inflammation and open your
clogged nose and stopped-up air passages
but will absolutely and positively destroy
every trace Of Catarrh germ life 1,
reaches. Druggists are SO sure Of the
to catarrh sufferers that they sell it in
variably on the positive guarantee that
money paid will be refunded If successful
| results are not secured from its use. &c,
a Hyomei outfit from your druggist to.
day and begin at once to drive this dan.
gerous and disgusting disease from your
system forever.
