TO END CATARRH
KILL THE GERMS
Only Way to Cure This Disease Is to
Destroy Its Cause
By A Specialist
If you have catarrh and want to get j
riil of it you must kill the germs which 1
cause catarrh. Stomach dosing, oint
ments, sprays, creams, douches, etc.,
fail because they overlook this fact. 1
They all help by giving temporary relief
■but they do not reach the germ life j
that has found lodgement in your head,;
nose, throat, and could not destroy it if 1
they- did.
The best known way of destroying
the dangerous germs of Catarrh and con
sequently ending the disease itself, is to
breathe into the air passages of your
nose and throat the pleasant, penetrat
ing air of Hyomei (pronounced Iligh-o
nie). Hyomei is made from purest of
Eucalyptus combined with other pow
erful, healing, antiseptic and germi
cidal ingredient* You breathe it
through a little pocket inhaler which
H. C. Kennedy and other leading drug
gists in Harrisburg and vicinity are fur
nishing with every complete treatment
sold. Every time you inhale the sweet,
fragrant air of Hyomei through this 1
little device you are drawing into your
»wollen, inflamed, germ-laden mem
branes a medicated air which will not
Jnlv reduce all the swelling and inflam
nation and open your clogged nose and <
itopped-up air passages, but will abso
utely and positively destroy every
race of Catarrh germ life it reaches,
druggists are so sure of the blessed,
asting relief that Hyomei brings to
iatarrh sufferers that they sell it in
variably on the positive guarantee that
noney paid will be refunded if suc-
[ossfiil results are not secured from its
ise. Get a Hyomei outfit from your
Iruggist tn-day and begin at onee to
Irive this .dangerous and disgusting dis
iase from your system forever.—Adv.
What to Do to Set Fat and
Increase Weight
The Real Cause of Thinness
A Physician's Advice
Most thin people eat from four to
six pounds of good solid fat-making
food every day and still do not increase
in weight one ounce, while on the otlwr
hand many of the plump, chunky folks
eat very lightly and keep gaining all the
time. It's all bosh to say that this is
the nature of the individual. It isn't
Nature's way at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective.
They absorb'just enough of the food
they eat to maintain life and sem
blance of health and strength. Stuffing
won't help them. A dozen meals a dav
won't make them gain a single "stay
there" pound. All the fat-produoing
elements of their food just stay in the
intestines until they pass from the body
as waste. What such people need is
something that will prepare these fatty
food elements so that their blood can
absorb them and deposit them all about
the body—something, too, that will
multiply their red blood corpuscles and
increase their blood's carrying power.
For such a condition I always reeotn
meod eating a Sargol tablet with every
meal. Sargol is not, as some believe, a
patented drug, but is a scientific com
bination of six of the most effective
and powerful flesh buildiug elements
known chemistry. It is absolutely
harmless, yet wonderfully effective and
a single tablet eaten with each meal
often has the effect of increasing the
weight of a thin man or woman from
three to five pounds a week. Sargol is
sold by G. A. Gorgas and other good
druggists everywhere on a positive guar
antee of weight increase or money back.

improving after a severe attack of
diphtheria.

Insects That Carry Diseases
Sir Donald Ross, who discovered how
the autopheles or mottled winged mos
quito tames malaria, gave in a lecture
an atiount of other diseases that are
carried in insects or bugs. Mosquitoes
carry not only malaria, but yellow fe
yer. dengue fever and elephantiasis.
Giossina morsitans is the carrying
rfgent of the tropical disease known as
magana, while tsetse flies are the cause
of sleeping sickness.
The spirochaetes of tick fever a re
borne by ticks, and a mild fever is
conveyed by an ml flies. Plague is due
to the rat flea, which carries the para
sites in the »livary glands and leaves
them in the flesh of whomsoever it
'bites. Mediterranean fever is carried
principally by the milk of infected
goats. Leprosy has been attributed to
bedbugs, and some are even beginning
to think that measles is due to fleas.—

SUGAR MAKES YOU GROW
That, It Seems, Is Why Our Girls Ar#
Becoming Taller
English and American girls -just
reaching womanhood, and the next gen
eration in its early teens, are unusually
tall, standing a head or more above
their mothers. This has been remarked
on over and over again, and has been
tlhe subject of learned disquisitions.
Yet no generaJly accepted cause for the
fact has been given up to this tims.
Now comes a London physician of
note and says that it is simply a case
of lengthened sweetness. By "sweet
ness" in this particular case the uature
of the young ladies is no treferred to,
but the if diet. In fact, statistics of re
cent years show that Americans and
Britons of both sexes are increasing in
height and weight. Why? The phy
sician referred to says it is sugar.
Great Britain and America are the
sugar eating nations of the wo(ld and
have quadrupled their saccharine con
sumption in the last, score of years.
This is now the best explanation of
an accepted fact, and it will have to
stand until a better one «omcs along.—
