Taggart Sells Hyomei Under Guar antee of Cure. The changeable weather of Spring is directly responsible for the prevalence of catarrhal troubles in Emporium at the present time. As a result, L. Taggait has had a larger sale for Hyomei the past week than ever before in the years that he has handled this reliable treatment for the cure of catarrh. Unlike the ordinary remedies that have been used in catarrhal troubles, there is no stomach dosing with Hyomei. Tt is breathed through a neat pocket inhaler that comes with every outlit, and its bal-' samic, antiseptic healing penetrates to the most remote cells of the nose, throat and lungs killing all catarrhal germs, healing the irritated mucous membrane, and effect ing a complete and permanent cure. If there is a single catarrhal germ in the system, Hyomei will search it out and absolutely destroy it, completely eradicating the trouble. The remedy has made so many cures among L. Taggart's customers that he offers to pay for it him self if it does not benefit even the worst case of catarrh. The complete outfit costs only 81 eon - i sistliv.' of an inhaler, medicine dropper, and bottle of Hyomei, while extra bottles i of Hyomei, can be obtained for 50 cents. There wilt not be even this small expense it' Hyomei does not euro, as L. Tairgart will return your money. Williams' Kidney Pills. Have you neglected your kidneys?
