Dr.. Ssslys's LIQUID Catarrh Rene
SYMPTOMS.

The symptoms of Catarrh are at first very
slight. aP Persons find they have cold, that
they have frequent attacks, and are more SEN
sihve to the changes Of temperature. In this
condition the nose may be dry, or a slight dis
charge, thin and acrid, afterwards thick and
adhesive, may. enSue. a..,,.f -..xs ts.ssaA
AS the disease becomes chronic. the dis
charges are increased in quantity and changed
in quality; they are now thick and heavy, and
are hawked or coughcd off. The secretions
are offensive, causing a bad breath; the voice
thick and nasal: the eyes are weak; the sense
of smell is lessened or destroyed; deafness
frequently takes place. yt..
Another common and important symptom OF
Catarrh is, that the person is obliged to clear
his throat IN the morning of slick or Shiny
mucous, which has fallen from the head du-
person may be sure that his disease is ON its
way to the lungs, and should lose no time IN
arresting it. 100 = q - 58R
