is often so offensive that he becomes an
object of disgust. After a time liberation
sets in, the spongy bones are attacked,

stant source of discomfort is the dripping
of the purulent secretions into the throat,
sometimes producing inveterate brOn-
chitis, which in its turn has been the ex-
citing cause of pulminary disease. The
brilliant results which have attended its
use for years past properly designate Ely's
Cream Balm as by far the best and only
cure. 2 9-2t
