A TALK
To Catarrh Sufferers.


Every person suffering from catarrh
in its many forms knows that the COM
mon lotions, salves and douches 10 not
cure. 1t is needless to argue this point
or to cite cases of failure. because
every victim of catarrhal trouble knows
it for himself if he has tried it.
A local application. if it does any
thing at all, simply gives temporary
relief; a wash lotion, salve or powder
cannot reach the seat of the disease,
which is the blood.
The mucous membrane seeks to re-
lieve the blood of catarrhal poison by
secreting large quantities OF mucus,
the discharge sometimes closing up
the nostrils, descending to the throat
and larynx, causing an irritating
cough, continual clearing of the throat,
deafness, indigestion and many other
disagreeable and persistent symptoms.
A remedy 10 really cure catarrh must
be an internal treatment; a remedy
which will gradually cleanse the sys-
TEN from catarrhal poison and remove
the fever and congestion always pres
ent i'll the mucous membrane
The best remedies for this purpose
are EucalypOl, Sangulnarla and Hy-
drastin, but the ditheulty has always
been to get these valuable curatiyes
combined in n palatable, convenient
and efficient form.
Recently this has been accomplished
and the preparation put on the market
under the name of Stuart's Catarfh
Tablets; they are large, pleasant tast-
ing lozenges. so that they may be
slowly dissolved in the mouth, thus
reaching every part of the mucous
membrane and finally the stomach AM
intestincs.
An advantage to be considered also
is that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets con-
tain no cocaine, morphine or poison
GUS narcotics. so often found in ca
tarrh powders, and the use OF which
often entails a habit more dangerous
than the disease.
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets are sold by

FEW FACTS
About the New Cntnrrh Cure.

About the New &nNnrrn CurGs
The new Catarrh Cure is a new de-
parture in so-called catarrh cures. be-
cause it actually cures and is not simply
a temporary relief.
The new Catarrh Cure is not a sa)ye,
ointment, powder. nor liquid. but a
pleasant tasting tablet containing the
best specific for catarrh in = coneen-
trated convenient form.
The old style of catarrh salves and
ointments are greasy, dirty and lncon-
venient at the best; the new prepara-
ton being in tablet form is always
clean and convenient.
The new Catarrh Cure is superior to
catarrh powders because 1t is a motor
ious fact that many catarrh powders
contain cocaine.
The new Catarrh Cure is called Stu
artS Catarrh Tablets, " wholesome
combination Of blood root, beeehwod
tar, guaiacol and other ~antisepties, and
cures by its action upon the blood and
mucous membrane, the only rational
treatment for catarrh trouble.
You do not have to draw upon your
imagination to discover whether you
are getting benefit from Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets; improvements and relief
are apparent from the FIRST tablet taken.
All druggists sell and recommend
them. They cost but so cents for full
sized packages, and any catarrh suf-
ferer who has wasted time and money
on sprays, salves and powders, viii
appreciate to the full the merit OF
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.

A I F COMPANION
And a Very Undesirable One.

And a Very Undesirable One.
With thousands of the people in this
climate, catarrh is a constant and life
long companion; it gets better at times,
but each year become gradually deeper
seated, and after a time the individual
resigns himself to it as a necessary
evil.
Catarrh cures are almost as numerous
as catarrh sufferers, but are nearly all
so ~inconvenient and ineffective as to
render their use a nuisance nearly as
annoying as eatarrh itself.
1t would seem at first glance that
catarrh being a disease of the mucous
membrane that salves, sprays, ETC., be-
ing applied directly to the membranes
would be the most rational method, but
this has proven not to be true.
The mucous membrane is made and
repaired from the blood and catarrh is
a blood disorder, and a remedy to be
permanent must act on the blood and
when purified from catarrh poison the
secretions from the ice membrane
will become natural and healthy.
There are a number of excellent in
ternal remedies for catarrh, but prob
dDly ClS pest anu Certainly Inc SdlcDS
is q new remedy composed of Eucalyp-
tol, Hydrastin, Sangruinaria and other
catarrn specifics. This remedy is in
tablet form, pleasant to the taste, and
sold by druggists under the name of
Stuart's Catarrh Tabls.s, and any n
suffering from catarrh may use these
tablets with absolute assurance that
they contain no cocaine nor poisonous
minerals whatever.
A leading druggist of Cleveland,
speaking of catarrh cures, says: Il
have sold various catarrh cures for
years, but have never sold any which
give such general satisfaction as Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets. They contain in
q pleasant concentrated form all the
best and latest catarrh remedies and
catarrh sufferers, who have used
douches, sprays and salves, have been
astonished at the quick relief and per-
manent results obtained after a weeks
use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets"
All druggists sell full size packages
for so cents.

UNDER MANY ALIASES.
An Old Enemy in New Disguise.

~ =
1t is the common belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply
a chronic cold in the head. This Is
true as far as it goes, but as a matter
of fact catarrh Is by no means confined
to the nasal passages, but extends
wherever the mucous membrane eN-
tends, which means nearly every part
of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside
skin of the body and is nearly as ex-
Lensiye al the ouside skin. and any
Inflammation of this membrane caus-
ing an extra secretion of fluid is really
catarrh.
Catarrh is, therefore, an old enemy
disguised by many confusing names,
for instance: Rhinitis is nasal ca
tarrh; %laryngitis and pharyngitis,
throat catarrh; bronchitis bRnchial
catarrh, gastritis, stomach catarrh;
cystitis and nephritis. catarrh of the
bladder and kidneys.
Therefore, although the location Of
the trouble gives it various names, in
reality the sum total is catarrh and
nothing else.
Do not make the mistake of think
ing you have no catarrh because the
head and nose appear to be clear. If
there is cough, tickling in the throat,
and hoarseness, you have throat ca
tarrh; if there is nc appetite, but nau-
sea, gagging and disgust for food, eS-
pecially in the morning, you have ca
tarrh of the stomach.
The surest treatment for ever. form
of catarrh is an internal remedy which
acts especially on the blood n mu-
cous membranes; such a remedy is the
new preparation sold everywhere by
druggists under name Of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets. a medicine in pleasant
tablet form and containing all the best
and latest specifics for catarrh.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain in

s Very few sections of the United
States are free from catarrh in some
form.
In the Northern States it is almost
universal.
A disease so common would natural
iy give rise to a large number of so
called cures, and catarrh remedies are
offered In every form; inhalers, washes
or douches, salves, ointments, powders
and internal liquid medicines.
The latest catarrh cure is a prepar-
alton in tablet form. very pleasant to
take and, according to many recent
tests, the results have been highly sat
ssfactory.
Unlike patent medicine in general,
this new catarrh cure is not a secret
preparation, but the ingredients are
plainly stated.
Druggists sell the remedy under the
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and
the tablets are composed of highly on
centrated antiseptics, eucalpytol, n.y.
drastin, g~ualacol ~beechwood tar, and
several other well known catarrh spe-
cities, and the success of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets in promptly relieving and
curing the different forms of catarrh
Us really something remarkable.
Whether the cataTrh is in the nose,
throat, bronchial tubes or stomach, the
tablets seem to act with equal success,
relieving in a few days the stuffy feel
ing in head and nose, removes the
tickling and irritation in the throat and
bronchial tubes, and a few weeks use
seem to remove completely the hawk
ing, splitting and other annoying symp-
toms of catarrh.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are ap-
proved by physicians, because no Sc
I cret is made of what they contain, and
04o suffer from catarrh should
bear in mind that many catarrh medi-
cines, powders, ointments, ETC., contain
cocaine to such an extent, in fact, that
in many States their sale is prohibited.
Largely for this reason the ingred-
tents in Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are
plainly stated to the public. This is
something no catarrh cure has ever
done before, and people who are care
full of what they put into their stom-
achs will fully appreciate this advan-

A DAILY NUISANCE.

A Simple Remedy Which VIII Inter-
est Catarrh Sufferers.
! In its early stages catarrh is more OF
a nuisance than a n to the gen.
eral health, but sooner or later the dis
ease extends to the throat, bronchial
tubes and even to the stomach and in
testines.
Catarrh is essentially a disease of the
mucous membrane, the local symptoms
being a profuse discharge of mucous,
stoppage of the nostrils, irritation in
throat, causing coughing, sneezing, gag
ging and frequent clearings of the
throat and head.
The usual treatment by local douches,
snuffs, salves, ETC., often gives temper
airy relief, but anything like a cure can
only be obtained by a treatment which
removes the catarrhal faint from the
blood and the disappearance of the in
fammation from the mucous surfaces.
A new remedy which meets these re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing catarrh
is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called a secret patent medi-
cine, as they are composed of such val
liable remedies as Sanguinaria, Hydras-
tin. Eucatyptol and similar cleansing
| antiseptics, which cure by eliminating
from the blood and mucous surfaces the
catarrhal poison.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozenges taken inter-
nally, allowing them to dissolve slowly
in the mouth; in this way they reach
the throat, fauces and the entire ali
mentary canal.
If desired, they may also be dissolved
in water and used as a douche, in addi-
ton to the internal use, but it is not at
all necessary to use a douche; a few Of
them dissolved in the mouth daily will
be sufficient. However, when there is
much stoppage of the nose. a douche
made from these tablets will give i'm
mediate relief, but the regular daily
use Internally Of these tablets will cure
the whole catarrhal trouble without re-
sorting to the inconvenience of a
douche.
DR.. Bennett states chat the internal
treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking
the place Of the old plan of douching,
and local application, and further says
