Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases. and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way TO cure it.
The disease is in the blood. and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-
citic cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
