One Vender Only at Market , Waynesboro. Feb. 2 Simple Hnw Treatment Deetreyi Germe of This Dangerous Disease i The reason why n many people who suffer frem Catarrh sever ■earn tfble to get cured i» that they are continually seeking the momentary relief of sprays, 1 douches, greasy creams, ointments, ete. Such things do open up the swollen nos trils and clear the head temporarily, besides stopping for a while the dis gusting blowing, hawking, spitting and choking, but they never cure. To drive out Catarrh for gopd you have got to get dow» to its real cause. Catarrh is a germ disease. The air is always full of catarrh germs thrown off by one person and absorbed by another and when the system does fail to throw off such germs they find permanent lodgement in the nose, throat and head and multiply rapidly. The germs of catarrh can best be de stroyed by inhaling the pure .medicated air of Hyomei (pronounced High-o-me). This splendid and powerful combination of oil of Eucalyptus with other healing agents has a wonderful germicidal ac tion. You breathe its air into your nose, throat and lungs by means of a small hard rubber inhaler which H. C. Kennedy and other leading druggists here in Harrisburg and vicinity supply with every treatment. This medicated air is certain- death to the germs of Catarrh and drives them completely oat of your systen\ and when the germs are destroyed the catarrh with all its dis agreeable symptoms will stop. Even two or three minutes use will give re freshing relief, while, if you will uae it two or three times a day for a few weeks it will completely banish catarrh and every symptom of catanrh. As Hy omei is peasant to breathe and is al ways sold by druggists everywhere with a positive guarantee of successful results or "money back, surely no. Ca tarrh' sufferers should go long before tr>Mng^thii^sim£l^J*om^^emedy^—^Adv. P. R. R.
