rho New Discovery For Catarrh
Seems to Possess Remark q bic Merit.

The New Discovery For Catarrh
Seems to Possess Remark able Merit.
A new catarrh cure has recently ap-
peared which so far as tested has been
remarkably successful in curing all
forms of catarrh, whether in the head,
throat. bronchial tubes or in stomach
and liver
The remedy is in tablet form, pleas
ant and convenient to take, and no spe-
cial secrecy is maintained as to what il
contains, the tablets being a scientific
combination of guaiacol, eucalyptol,
sanguinaria, hydrastin and similar val
liable and harmless antisepties.
This safe and effective catarrh cure
may be found at any drug store under
the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the catarrn is located in the
nose. throat, bronchial tubes or stom-
ach. the tablets seem to act with equal
success, removing the stuffy feeling in
head and nose, clearing the mucous
membrane of throat and trachea from
catarrhal secretions, which cause the
tickling, coughing, hawking and gag
ging so annoying to every eatarrh SUI
ferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ul-
ceraton, in some cases to such an ex-
tent as to destroy the nose entirely
and in many old cases of catarrh the
bones of the head become diseased.
Nasal catarrh gradually extends TO the
throat and bronchial tubes and Very
