Lanrens Drug Co. Will Refund Money If It Fails. No other medicine or treatment for catarrh has ever achieved suoh quick and remarkable success in 1.aureus as Hyomoi. The fact that The Laurons Drug Co. when they first introduced Hyomel sold It under a positive guar antee to refuud the money in case it did net aure contributed largely to its successful introduction, A guarantee from a firm like The L-uirens Drug Co. gave poop'e confidence at the start. Those who obtained a Hyomel outfit fonnd that the treatment did all that was elaimed for it; that the first few breaths of Hyomei cleared the air pas sages and gave an exhilarating and in vigorating effect. Its continued use freed the systom from all catarrhal gerrn?, soothed and hea'od the mucous membrane, and made a complete and lasting cure. Compared with the dangerous stom ach drugging that had been used here tofore in the treatment of catarrh, the balsamic air of Hyomel created a most favorable impression. And the medi cine itself did even more than was claimed for it. In fact, to make a suc cess, it was necessary that Hyomei should cure nearly overy ca?e of ca tarrh in which it was used for evory outfit was sold on a guarantee to re fund the money in case it failed. If it had not possessed unusual merit, an oti'er like this would have resulted in an enormous loss. But curing as it did, Hyomel soon gainod an enviable reputation and made many friends who recommend it far and near. Its success here In Laurens has been remarkablo, and The Laurens Drug Co. are still selling it on their personal guarantee to refund the monoy in cjeo it does not give satisfaction. Mr. ;V. L. Bord.
