many, very many, more annually than the
gravest or worst epidemic that ever Wis

Of all diseases which afflict the human

dangerous, as 1t occurs more or less in
every quarter of the globe, and occasions
a larger proportion of deaths than any
other disease.
ONE-FIFTH OF THE PEOPLE DIE
OF 1T.
Statistics show that among the enlight-

regard his affection as a CATARRH, or
