Catarrh Is Inflammation Of the mucous
membrane, attended with increased secretion.
Thus catarrh may affect the head, throat,
stomach, bowels, or any part Of the body
where the mucous membrane Is found. But
catarrh of the head Is by far the most common,
coming on so gradually that often It's pres
ence Is not suspected till 1t has obtained a
firm hold on its victim. 1t is caused by a
cold, or succession Of colds, combined with
Impure Blood.
When firmly established the disease Is ex-
ceedingly dsagrecable, causing flow from the
nose, dryncss Of the throat, headache, loss OF
appetite, roaring and buzzlng noises IN the
ears, etc. In Hoods Sarsaparlla may be
found Il prompt and permanent cure for
catarrh 1t purifes and enriches the blood,
s0othes and rebuids the diseased membrane,
and thus soon cures the disease. At the same
time 1t refreshes and tones the whole system.
The remarkable success Of this peculiar
medicine entities 1t to your confidence. Give
Hoods Sarsaparilla trial.
