Scld Under Druggists’ Guarantee Catarrh is an inflammation of the mucous membrane which causes a.dis- charge. The inflammation is cauysed, some physicians say, by the pernicious ac- tivity of little germs or microbes that lodge in the folds and crevices of the mucous membrane. Catarrh can be ended by killing these germs. Medicines taken into the stomach may act on the blood and tone up the system, but it is not believed that they, can destroy catarrh germs. & Sprays and douches are good as far | as they go. but they do not go far enough.' No liquid can reach the low- er throat or lungs, neither can a liquld penerate into the folds and crevices of the membrane, where germs secrete themselves. The germs can be reached by HY- OMEI a soothing antiseptic which you breathe into the lun, HYOMEIL breathed through the in-, haler that is in each outfit or as a' vapor acts quickly; the soothing effects are soon’ noticed.
