Catarrhal
POISON!

Wei. De Meyers Treatise on Catarrh explains
the following important facts;
l. That Catarrhal Colds become poisonous In
lection. at nrst local, and finally constitutional.
That, being constitutional, the Infection is beyond
the reach OF mere local remedies.
s. That impurities in the nostrls are necessarily
swallowed into the stomach and inhaled into the
lungs, thus poisoning the Digestive. Respiratory and
Genito-urinary organs.
4. That Catarrhal virus follows the mucous mem
bane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia Chronic d.
arrh9a, Bronchitis. Leucorrhea and Consumption.
That smokes, Douches Limitations, and lnsolnbie
snun' cannot possibly remove infectious inflammation
from the organs named.
9. That an antidote for Catarrh must possess An
inoculative affinity for and the quality of being alb
sorbed by. the puruent mucous wherever located.
Based upon these plain theories. DIR. Wei DE
Meyers Catarrh Cure has proved To be lnfalible II
not only relieves. 1t cures Catarrh at any stage.
