Wei De Meyers Treatise on Cata rrh
explains the following important facts:
l. That Catarrhal Colds become poi
sonous infection, aI first local, and finally
constitutional.
.. That, being Constitutional. the infection lie
beyond the reach Of mere local remedies.
y. That Impurities In the nostris, are
necessarily gwa1lewed into the stomach and
1nhalsd inte the lungs, thus poisoning the
digestive, Respiratory and Genito-urinary organs.
T. That Catarrhal virus follows the mu-
ceus membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia
Chron1s Diarrhaa, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
and Consumption.
s. That Smokes. Douches. Inhalations, and
Insoluhls snuffs, cannot possibly remove IN
scttous innammations from the organs named.
G. That ansautidote ior Catarrh must pos
