WHY SOME PATIENTS FIND No

The reason that so many patients
/ Tail In finding a cure for chronic cat
| arrh is because OF their unwilliagness
| 10 continue treatment long enough.
/ Many people who have had chronic
eatarrh Tor five, ten. or even fifteen
| years, VIII follow treatment for few
weeks, and then. because they are not
/ cured, give up and try something else.
These patients never follow one treat
ment long enough TO test it's merits,
| and consequently never find cure.
Ii is we'll known law OF disease that
the longer it has run the more ten
aciously ii becomes fastened to its vic
| tim.
| PAILIATIVES DO NOT CURE.
The difficulty wlthwhich catarrh is
cured has led to the invention OF a
host OF remedies which produce tenn
p orary relief only. The unthinking
MASSES expect to find some remedy
which will cure them in n few days,
and to take advantage of this false
hope many compounds which have in
slant but transient effect have been
devised. The people try these catarrh
cures one after another, but disap-
poinJment is the invariable result, un-
1
cure is possible.
LOCAL APPLICATION CAN NOT
CURE.
The various kinds and modes of local
applications, such AS sprays, atom
izers, douches, inhalents, fumigations
creams, ointments. lotions, gargles,
cts, etc., have in many ways u sooth-
ing effect upon the inilamed surfaces,
and are sometimes useful TO assist a
cure; but neither of them, nor all OF
them together, ever did, or ever will
cure a ase cof catarrh. These things
may give temporary relief, but it is
useless to expect cure OF them. Cat
arm Is not local disease, hence can
not be cured by local treatment.
THE ONLY HOPE OF SUCCESS
In the permanent cure of case OF
chronic catarrh is to devise some rem
edy that will remove the cause. /
know OF but one remedy that mas this
most desirable effect, and that is Pc
ru-na. This remedy strikes at once
at the root of the catarrh by restor-
ing TO the mucous membranes their
healthy elasticity. Pe-ru-na is not a
temporary palliative, but radical
cure. Its action is necessarily slow,
but permanent.
CATARRH Is DURABLE.
In the majority OF cases especially
those OF less than two years dura-
tion) catarrh can ne cured in few
weeks by the proper use of Pe-ru-na.
Some cases are cured by six bottles,
Others by four, and we have not a few
testimonials who have proiessed a cure
from even one bottle OF this remedy.
Where a case of catarrh has existed
for five or ten years permanent cure
can not be reasonably hoped for in less
than three or four months, and in some
rare eases the continued use OF Peru
M for one year nas been necessary to
effect n permanent cure. But, unless
the case is very old and complicated. a
speedy and permanent cure is sure.
AZURE GUARANTEED.
