WHAT DOCTORS SAY OF CATARRH.

Whether chronic catarrh can be per.
manently cured or not is question about
which there is great difference of opin
ion among the professional few, and also
among the non-professional masses The
majority of physicians dislike to under.
AXE the cure OF this disease because they
know that only the most tireless patience
and faithful obedience on the part of the
patient, as well as skilful treatment on
the part of the physician, will be reward.
ed with success. Hence it is that great
proportion of the medical fraternity hest
ate or refuse to treat chronic catarrh on
| the plea that it is incurable.
WHY SOME PATIENTS FIND NO CURE.
Hence it is also that so many pa
| tients fail in findinga cure because of
Cheir unwilliUgnrss to continue treat
uent long enough. Many peop'e who
have had chronic catarrh for tive, ten,
! and even fifteen Years, will follow
treatment for few weeks, and then,
because they are not cured, give up

These patients never How any one

| IT'S, and consequently never find a
cure. 1t is well known law of disease
chat the longer it has run the more
tenaciously it becomes fastened to its
victim.
CHRONIC DIsEASEs RECOVER SLOWLY.
Some doctors go So far as to Say
that it will take as long to cure dis
ease AS the disease has run; hut, while
| do not believe hat this is necessarily
true, yet it is beyond dispute that The

difficult of cure it becomes. 1t seems
70 be very hard to get patients to I'M
derstand this fact and submit to the
inevitable.
PALLIATIvEs DO NOT CURE.
The difficu ty with which catarrh
is cured has led to the invention of a
host of remedies which produce tenn
porary relief only. he unthinking
masses expect to find some remt dy
which will cure them in few days,
and to take advantage of this false
hope many compounds which have
instant but transient effect have heeu
devised The people y these catarrn
cures one after another, but disap.
pOintment is the invariable result,
until very many sincerely believe that
no cure is possible.
LOCAL APPLICATION CAN NOT CURE
The various kinds and modes of 10.
cal applications, such as sprays
atomizers, douches, inha ants, funi-
cations, creams. ointments, lotions.
garglNS, etc etc, have in many Cases
a soothing effect on the infialned sur
fac4s and are som times useful 70 as.
slst cure; but neither of them nor all
OF them toge her ever did or ever will
cure a case of catarrh. These things
may give temporary relief, but 1t is
Useless to expect cure of them.
Catarrh is not a loo ii disease hence
can not he cured by local uettmpnt.
CATARRH Is A SYSTEMIC DISEASE,
and therefore requires persis ent in
ternal treatment, Often for many
months, before permanent cure is
effected. The mucous lining of the
cavities of the head, throat, lungs.
etc, are made up of work of
minute blood VESSELS. called capila
ries. The capilIaries are very small
elastic tubes, which in all cases of
bulged out with God 20 long that tile
elasticity OF the tubes are tire v de-
stroyed. The nerves which supply
these capilarles with vita Ivy are
called the "vaSa-mOtor' nerves Any
medicine to reach the real difficulty
and exert the slightest cura
tive action in any case of
cdtarrh must operate di ecrlv up, n
the vasamotor system OF nerves. AS
soon as tn re ne We bpcone streng h.
ened and stimulate by the action of Il
proper rem DIV they restore o the cap
Hilary vessels of the vari MS mucous
membranes Of the bony their normal
elasticity. Then, aud only then. will
the catarrh be pernau ntIy cured
Thus iG will he S EN- that ca arrh is
not blood disea-e, a. many supp ,se
but rather di,ease of tie Mucous
blood vessels. This eNp aims why it
is that SO many excellent blood medi-
cines utI erly fail 10 cure catarrh.
THE ONLY HOPE OF SUCCESS
in the permanent cure OF case of
chronic catarrh j. t. devise some rem
edy that will stimulate the nerves
which supply the capil airy blood YES
sci. ! know OF but one remedy that
has this most desirable effect, aud that
remedy is Peruna. This remedy strikes
at once to the root of thu catarrh by
restoring to the capillary vessels their
healthy elasticity. Pe-ru-na is not
temporary palliative, but a radical
cure. Its action is necessarily slow.
but permanent.
CATARRH IS CURABLE.
In the majority of cases Especially
those of less than two years duration)
catarrh can be cured in few weeks
by the proper use or Peru ma. Some
cases are cured by SIX bottles, Others
by four, and we have not few test
luonials who have professed cure
from even one bottle OF this remedy.
Whrre a case OF catarrh has existed
for five or ten years permanent cure
can not reasonably hoped for in less
than three or four mouths, aud in
some rare cases the continued use of
Pc ru-na for one year has been
necessary to effect u permanent cure
But unless the case is very
old or complicated, a speedy
and permanent cure is sure.
THESE ARE FACTS
based on many years use of this most
excellent catarrh remedy. No one
could he more anxious than myself to
discover some cdtarrh remedy that
