ssNasal Voices. Catarrh and False Teeth"
A prominent English woman says the
American women all have high shrill nasal
voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant twit
ting they get about this nasal twang, and
yel il Is fact caused by our dry stimulat-
ing atmosphere, and the universal presence
of catarrhal difficulties.
But why should so many OF our women
have false tcethf
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
aud end in cough and consumption, which
are promoted by mal-nutriton induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition
is a modern one, one unknown To our an
cestors who prevented the catarrh, cold,
cough and consumption by abundant ana
regular use of what is now known as
Warmers Log Cabin cough and consump-
tion remedy and Log Cabin sarsaparilla,
two old fashioned standard remedies
handed down from our ancestors, and now
exclusively put forth under the strongest
guarantees of purity and efficacy by the
world famed makers OF Warmers safe cure.
These two remedies plentifully used as the
fall and winter seasons advance, together
with an occasional use of Warmers Log
Cabin rose cream, to strengthen and pro
tect the nasal membranes, give positive
assurance of freedom, both from catarrh
and those dreadful and If neglected, inevi-
table consequences, pneumonia, lung
troubles and consumption, which so gener-
ally and fatally prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher, OF Salem, Henry
Co, Iowa, served four years in the late
war and contracted disease called con-
sumption by the doctors. He had frequent
helnoi rhages. After using Warmers Log
Cabin cough and consumption remedy, he
says under date Of Jan. 18th, 1888 81 do
not bleed at the lungs any more, my cough
does not bother me, and do not have any
more smothering spells" Warmers Log
Cabin rose cream cured his wife of catarrh
and she is 'sound and we'll"
OF course we do not like to have our
women called nose takers and false teeth
owners, bat these conditions can be readily
overcome in the manner indicated.
