WHO USES HYOMEI?
The Best People in Oregon City Say
Huntley Brot. Guaranteed in
Catarrhal Trouble!.
No other remedy or treatment for
catarrh has ever been as popular or
made so many remarkable cures in
Oregon City as Hyomei.
The best people attest its curative
virtues, say Huntley Bros., who are
the local agents. The fair way in
which Hyomei was sold, to refund the
money unless it gave satisfaction, was
the best proof when it was Introduced
that It possessed unusual curative
powers. Huntley Bros, took all the
risk of the treatment giving satisfac
tion, and left it to the purchasers to
be the judge.
Later, when Hyomei was used and
recommended by our well-known phy
sicians and business men and their
wives as a treatment that absolutely
cured catarrh, no matter how serious
or long standing, the sales rapidly
grew, and today there is no other
remedy in Huntley Bros.' stock that
has such a large and staple sale.
The first breath of Hyomei's healing
air kills all catarrhal poison.
Try Hyomei today on Huntley Bros.'
offer to refund the money if the treat
ment does not give you satisfaction.
