troubled with hoarseness and
throat weakness, and on my re-
turn home from a trip / gave him a
few OF the tablets one. Sunday
morning when he had complained
of h-oarseness. He was delighted
with their effect, removing all
huskiness in a few minutes and
making the voice clear and strong.
AS the tablets are very pleasant
to the taste, / had no difficulty In
persuading him TO use them regu-
larly.
Our family physician told us they
were an ~antiseptic preparation of
undoubted merit and that he him
self had no hesitation In using and
recommending Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets for any form OF catarrh.
/ have since met many public
speakers and professional singers
who used them constantly. A
prominent Detroit lawyer told me
that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets kept
his throat in fine shape during the
most trying weather. and that he
had long since discarded the use of
cheap lozenges and troches on the
advice of his physician that they
contained so much tolu, potash and
opium as to render their use a dan
ger to health"
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are
large pleasant tasting lozenges
composed of catarrhal antiseptics,
like Guaiacol, Eucalyptol, Hydras-
tin, ETC., and sold by druggists
everywhere at so cents for full
treatment
They act upon the blood and
mucous membrane and their COM
position and remarkable ucces
has won the approval of physi-
clans. as well as thousands of suf-
ferers from nasal catarrh, throat
troubles and catarrh of stomach.
