passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Gold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
inflammation and heal the membrane Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
