Pneumonia In New York.

The worst treatment fora heavy cold is

All medical authorities agree that catarrh
Is no more nor less than an inflammation Of
the lining membrane of the nasal passages
Nasal catarrh and all catarrhal affections of
the head are not diseases of the blood, and
IL is serious mistake TO treat them as SUCH
No conscientious physician ever attempts to
do so. 1t is held by eminent medical men
that sooner or later specific will be found
for every disease from which humanity suf-
fers. The facts justify us in assuming that
for catarrh at least positive cure already
exists in Elys Cream Balm.
