For your Protection. 80 atarrh "Cures" or
TONES for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re.
suits Of catalrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis

these troubles and contains no mercury
