Just Breathe in Hyomei, the Dry Air That Kills the Germs. You can do exactly what G. J. Sterers did by using Hyomei. Read this: "After having suffered from chronic atarrah for years, for which I tried va. rious remedies without success, I became almost discouraged. After reading about Hyomei, I decided to make one more effort to rid myself of the dread disease, and to my great delight I found the use of two bottles of the Inhalent sufficient to produce a complete cure. I now take pleasure in recommending this remedy to all sufferers from catarrh.” —G. J. Sterers, Crown City, Ohio. We don’t simply say Hyomei will cure catarrh, but we say that Holthouse Drug Co., the druggist guarantees it to cure cararrh, or money back. He does more, he guarantees it to cure asthma, bronchitis, hay fever, coughs and colds. A complete Hyomei outfit, including inhaler, costs only SI.OO and extra bottles if you afterwards need one, will ocst but 50 cents. Hyomei is a pleasant dry air treatment. You just breathe it in, and as it passes over the inflamed membrane, it kills the germs of catarrh, and allays all inflammation.
