Sells the Great Remedy that Cured Mrs. Karberg Here is a very sirftply yet wholly sincere statement of a Michigan woman who was cured by using Hyomei —the no cure no pay remedy for catarrh, asthma, hay fever, croup, coughs and colds. Abad case of catarrh was cured for me by the use of Hyomei. The trouble affected my head, nose and eyes, and was very annoying and disagreeable, and the cure, from the use or Hyomei, was very gratifying. Hyomei has from me a strong recommend and endorsement.” —Mrs. E. Karhcrg. 213 Kingsley St., Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 16, 1908. Thousands of just such letters are in existence, and thousands more would be but for the desire to avoid publicity. If you have catarrh, bestir yourself, and drive it out of your system. Kill the germs. You can do that easily if you use Hyomei (pronounced Higho me). It is a dry, antiseptic and veijr pleasant air, that when inhaled, quickly ! relieves all forms of catarrhal in- | fiammation, stops snuffles, hawking and blowing. The price for a complete outfit, including inhaler, is only I SI.OO at Holthouse Drug Co.

City Clerk. 43-2tw-7-2tw o FOR CONSTIPATION. A Medicine That Does not Cost Anything Unless it Cures. If you suffer from constipation In any form whatever, acute or chronic, we will guarantee to supply you medicine that will surely effect a cure if taken with regularity and according to directions for a reasonable length of time. Should the medicine fall to benefit you to your entire satisfaction, we promise that it shall cost you nothing. No other remedy can be compared with Rexall Orderlies for the easy, pleasant and successful treatment cf constitpation. The active medicinal ingredient of this remedy which is odorless, tasteless and colorless, is an entirely new dlcovery. Combined with other extremely valuable ingredients, it forms a preparation which is incomparable as a perfect bowel regulator, intestinal invigorator and stienthener. Rexall Orderlies are notable for their agreeableness to the palate and gentleness of action. They do not cause griping or any disagreeable effect or inconvenience, and may be taken at any time, day or night. We particularly recommend Rexall Orderlies for children or aged persons because they do not contain anything that could possibly injure the most delicate organism. They are just as easy to take as candy, and unlike other preparations for a like purpose, they do not create a habit, but instead they overcome the” cause of habits acquired through the use of ordinary laxatives, cathartics and harsh physic, and permanently remove the cause of constipation or irregular bowel action. We want you to try Rexall Orderlies at our risk. We know that there is nothing that will do you so much good, and we will refund your money without argument if they do not do as we say they will. The are prepared in tablet form in two sizes of packages: 36 tablets, 25c., and 12 tablets, 10c. The Smith, Yager & Falk Drug Co., Decatur, Ind. — OPEN CHALLENGE.
