LOCAL TREATMENT
Contrast Between OId-Fashioned
Methods and New Ones,
The Treatment That Surely Cures
Catarrh.

What is this local trcstment thst Is used
to-day by all reputable physicians and
specialists in the treatment Of catarrh2
1t is process Of constant and methodical
cleansing, healing and soothing of the men,
branes, foul and irritated from the poison
Gus catarrhal secretions. Catarrh is a local
as well as constitutional disease, and the
membraneous surface where the local mani
festations usually occur must be kept clean
and pure from the poisonous catarrhal secre-
tions as a wound must be kept clean from
poisonous accumulations The sprays and
applications used in healing, soothing and
curing the affected parts are effective, pleas
ant and occasion neither the slightest pain
nor discomfort They relieve the nostrils
from their stopped-up and irritated condi-
tion, cleanse the parts thoroughly, restore
the healthy action of the membranes, allevi-
ate the inflammation, and, with the aid Of
proper constitutional treatment, in good
process of time cure the disease.
Years ago, before such men as Drs. Cope
land & Hall and their associates gave their
lives and their education and their ability
to the treatment of catarrh, the profession
itself paid but little attention to the dis
ease, and apparently knew little about the
proper methods of treating and curing it.
At that time, among some doctors, the
authorized treatment of catarrh was by the
use of caustic applications and acids, which
were severe and painful, and while they
may have been scientifically and theoretic-
ally correct, in many cases left worse con-
dition of the membranes than that which
they were intended to cure
This was the old-fashioned treatment for
the cure of catarrh. 1t was harsh, it was
severe and was not as effective as that which
modern skill and science has devised, which
soothes, heals and relieves without pain or
irritation.
The harsher modes of treatment were
done away with by all-skillful and success
full specialists many years ago, and the
local treatment, with the aid of proper
remedies, as used to-day
by Drs. Copeland & Hall, and by all sue
cessful specialists, is mild, pleasant and
affords instant and temporary relief, as well |
as, in regular sequence, permanent and
lasting cure.
Drs Copeland s. Hall congratulate them
selves upon no one thing more than upon |
the fact that their methods are painless as |
well as scientific and effective.
In so small and simple matter as the |
removal of polypus from the nose their |
cures are accomplished without the slight
est pain or irritation.
A few years ago doctors would drag nasal
polypii out with fcrceps, tearing the little
juniors out by the roots. The operation
was attended with pain, suffering and fire.
1uent hemorrhage.
To-day Drs. Copeland & Hall remove
these polypii by simple and delicate oper-
alton without the slightest pain or loss of
blood
This same principle applies to all varie-
lies of their treatment for catarrhal troubles
They cure catarrh scientifically and thor.
,ughly; eradicate the disease from the
system; they use both local and constitu-
ional treatment, but they occasion neither
pain nor the slightest unpleasant sensation
n the process of treatment
