Prob- 1bly no better, safer or more sensi- le precaution against Influenza, irippe, Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis or ‘atarrh of the nose and throat could be employed than to go now to the 1earest drug store and get a complete Hyomei outfit consisting of a bottle of the pure Oil of Hyomei and a little vestpocket hard rubber inhaling de- vice into which a few drops of the 2il are poured. Carry this Inhaler with you during the day and each half hour or so put it in your mouth and draw deep breaths of its pure healing germicidal 1ir into the passages of your nose, throat and lungs to destroy any germs that may have found lodgment there.
