NO MORE cATARRH
A Guaranteed Treatment That Has
Stood The Test Of Time

Catarrh cures come and catarrh
cures go, but Hyomei continues to
heal catarrh and abolish its disgust
ing symptoms wherever civilization
exists.
Every year the already enormous
sales of this really scientific treat
ment for catarrh grow greater, and
the present year should show records
broken.
If you breathe Hyomei daily as di-
rected it will end your catarrh, or it
won't cost you cent.
If you have hard rubber Hyomei
inhaler somewhere around the house,
get it out and start it at once to for
ever rid yourself of catarrh.
The Penny Drug Store, or any 9TH
er good druggist will sell you a bot
tie of Hyomei (liquid), start to
breathe it and notice how quickly it
clears out the air passages and max
es the entire head feel fine.
Hyomei used regularly will end
catarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis or
asthma. A complete outfit, including
hard rubber pocket inhaler and
bottle of Hyomei, costs but little. No
stomach dosing; just breathe it. 1t
kills the germs, soothes and heals the
inflamed membrane. AL
