RIGHT BREATHING CURES
CATARRH.
Simple Way to Kill Catarrhal Germ
in Nose, Throat and Lungs.
The only natural and common sense
method known for the cure of catarrh
al troubles is Hy-o-mei. It Is breathed
through an Ingenious pocket inhaler
so that Its medicated air reaches the
most remote air-cells of the nose,
throat and lungs, killing all catarrhal
germs, soothing the irritated mucous
membrane, and restoring a healthy
condition.
Hy-o-mei goes right to the SDot
where the catarrhal germs are present
in the nose, throat and lungs and de
stroys the germs so that perfect
health Is soon restored.
