CATARRH CAUSED
BY A GERM
lust lb' llcliii. i-vl Before c in in i I,

ful Xi suit _, Kroni Breathing
M--lii nii-,1 Air.
Medicine that acts on the blood
alone will never cure catarrh. And
neither will the sprays, douches,
lotions, creams and other tempor
ary reliefs that so many catarrh
victims make a habit of using. To
cure catarrh so it won't come back
you must first drive from your
body the millions of germs that
are flourishing in tlie Inner re
cesses of your nose and throat and
are causing the disease.
There in a preparation used to
do tim- called Hyomel (pro
nounced High-o-me). Hyomel is
a germ killing vaporized air form
ed from the purest oil of Eucalyp
tus i (unbilled with other healing
and antiseptic Ingredients. You
breathe Hyomel through the
mouth and nose by means of a
little hard rubber Inhaler which
druggists furnish with It. This
medicated germicidal air pene
trates into every fold and crevice
of the mucous membrane of your
nose and throat, kills the catarrh
germs that lodge there, soothes,
reduces and heals the swollen In
flamed membranes, stops the dis
charge and opens up the clogged
nose and air passages in a truly
wonderful way. It gives blessed
relief In five minutes from ca*
tarrhal distress of every kind and
if you make a practice of breath
ing Hyomel for a few minutes
each day for Just a few weeks not
only will all tha symptoms of ca
tarrh vanish but the disease Itself
will be a thing of the past. No
one need try or buy Hyomel on
pure faith. Crown Drug Co., 1132
Pacific aye., and many other lead
ing druggists In Tacoma and vi
cinity sell it with the positive
guarantee that It must cure ca
tarrh or that the money paid for
It will be refunded. Hyomel Is
very Inexpensive and with this
protecting guarantee behind your
purchase there Is absolutely no
reason why any sufferer from Ca
tarrh should not give it a fair
trial.
