Wei De Meyers Treatise on Gaia rrh
explains the following important facts:
l. That Catarrhal Colds become poi
sonous infection, AT first locsl, and finally
constitutional.
.. That, being Constitutional. the infection is
beyond the reach Of mere local remedies.
B. That Impurities in the nostrils, 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 mu-
cous membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia, ,
Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
and Consumption,
5. That Smokes, Douches, Inhalations, and
lnsoluble Sauffs, cannot possibly remove in
ectious innammations from the organs named.
s. That ansantidote Tor Catarrh must pos
sess inocu1ative affinity for and the quality
of being absorbed by, the Purulent mucous
wherever located.
Based upon these plain theories, DR..
Wei De Meyers Catarrh Cure has proved
infsllible. 1t not only releaves, it cures
Catarrh at any stage. Home testimony:
