Wei De Meyers Treatise on Catarrh,
explains the following important facts:
1. That Catarrhal Colds become poi
sonous infection, first local, and finally
constitutional.
2. That, being Constitutional. the infection is
beyond the reach OF mere local remedies
8. That Impurities in the nostrfl-, are
necessarily swallowed into the stomach and
inhaled into the lungs, thus poisoning the
Digestive, Respiratory and Genito-urinary organs.
d. That Catarrhal virus follows the mu-
cous membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia,
Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhoea
and Consumption,
s. That Smokes, Douches, Inhalations, and
Insoiu6le S1uffs. cannot possibly remove In
fectious infammations from the organs named.
6. That an antidote Tor Catarrh must pos
sess an inocu1ative affinity for, and the quality
