The experience of Mr.. Chas. A. Parr,

Specifc) and after four months was
perfectly well, and have never felt any
effects of the disease since"
Those who have had the first
touchof Catarrh will save endless suf-
fering by taking the right remedy at the
outset. Others who have for years
sought relief and found only disappoint-
ment in local treatment will find it wise
to waste no further time on sprays,
washes, inha1ing mixtures, ETC., which
are only temporary, and cannot save
them from dreaded Consumption.
They should take remedy which will
cure them because it can reach their
trouble. SIS. is the only blood RENE
dy which can reach Catarrh; it promptly
gets at the very bottom of the disease,
and cures it permanently.
SIS. (Swift's Specifc) is a real blood
remedy, and cares the most obstinate
cases of Catarrh, Rheumatism, Conta-
gious Blood Poison, Cancer, Scrofula
andEczema, which other so-called blood
remedies have no effect upon whatever.
