DIR. HARTMAN ON cATARaH.
The FalIacy of catarrh Cures.

The fatal mistake which so many physi-
clans, of all schools, make in the treatment
of catarrh is that it is regarded as a local
disease and not a systematic disease. If the
patient has catarrh Of the nose or throat,
sprays and gsrges are used; if the ca'arrh is
in the larynx or bronchial tubes, inhalents
are used if the catarrh is in the stomach,
medicine is swallowed if the catarrh is in
the bladder or qrethrs, injections are resort
ed to hoping in each case 10 cure this dis
ease by applying the medicine to the exact
spot where the disease is located.
While il is a fact that sprays, inhalents,
gargles and injections are often helpful in
the treatment Of case of ca'arrh, they can
never accomplish cure. Catarrh is dis
ease of the system, which manifests itself in
some mucous membrane, oftenest of the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes or lungs, but
frequently of the stomach and bowels, and
again of the urinary and sexual organs. A
persistent use of Pernna according to the
directions on the bottle will remove the
catarrhal taint from the system after which
the diseased part, wherever located, will soon
recover That this is the Correct theory of
the treatment of catarrh is amply proven by
the multitude of testimonials that are con-
stsntly pouring in from ali parts OF the
country,
Catarrh in all stages and varieties colds
coughs, bronchitis, la grippe, catarrhal dys
pepsia, all yield, surely and permanently, TO
the curative virtues of Peruna.
John Risley, of Merrimac, Wis, writes
