and endures the onset of the hay fever And
1t is, so he says, something terrible and tre-

able for his actions. He IL merely wild
beast-frantic with snuffng, sneezing and
headache. His eyes are red and 80 Is his nose.
Every nerve in his skull thrills with distress
and his head Is a fountain of tears. He lives
only to fly from seaside to mountain-top In
search of relief And yet, whether we call
this form of catarrh hay-fever rose-fever, hay
cold or rose-cold, Ely's Cream Balm will cure
it. This remedy is simple, pleasant and easy
