EASY TO CURE
Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat
and Catarrh.
Breathe Hyomei It will cure catarrh
or any nose or throat trouble if you fol
low directions. Don't lay it aside when
the snuffing, hawking and spitting have
ceased. Stick to it daily until you are
sure that the catarrh germ is dead, and
that your air passages are free from their
poisonous influence. Hyomei (pro
nounced High o me) is the only treat
ment for nose, throat and lung troubles
that has ever been sold with the under
standing that if it did not cure, it was to
cost absolutely nothing.
Hyomei cau be obtained at druggists
everywhere and at V. T. McCroskey, who
guarantees it to cure catarrh, croup, sore
throat, coughs and colds. A complete
outfit $1.00, which is mighty cheap for a
remedy that has cured more cases of
catarrh than all the catarrh specialists
on earth.
An outfit consists of an inhaler, a bot
tle of Hyomei, a supply of antiseptic
gauze, a medicine dropper, and full in
structions for use. The inhaler is made
pocket size, of hard rubber and will last
a lifetime. And bear in mind that extra
bottles of Hyomei, if needed, cost only
50 cents.
