THE RIGHT THING
A New Catarrh Cure Which is Rapidly
 Coming to the Front

For several years, Eucalyptol. Guaiacol and Hydrastin have been recognized as standard remedies for catarrhal troubles, but they have always been given separately and only very recently an ingenius chemist succeeded in combining them, together with other antiseptics into pleasant, effective tablet
 Druggists sell the remedy under the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and it has met with remarkable success in the cure of nasal catarrh, bronchial and throat catarrh and in catarrh of the stomach.
 MT. F. N. Benton, whose address is care of Clark House. Troy, N. r., says: When run up against anything that Is good I like to tell people of it. I have been troubled with catarrh more or less for some time. Last winter more than ever. Trie1 several so-called cures but did not get any benefit from them About six weeks ago I bougA- a 50 cent box of Stuarts Catarrh T2blets and I am glad to say that they have done wonders for me and do not hesitate to let all my friends know that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are the right thing.
 MT. Geo. J. Casanova of Hotel Griffon, West 9th street. New York City, writes: I have commenced using Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and already they have given me better results than any catarrh cure have ever tried.
 A leading physician of Pittsburg advises the use of Stuarts Catarrh Tablets In pre- ference to any other Urea tment for catarrh of the head, throat or stomach.
 He claims they are far superior to in- halers, salves, lotions or powder, and are much more convenient and pleasant to take and are so harmless that little children take them with benefit they contain no opiate, cocaine CT any poisonous drug.
 All druggists sell Stuarts Catarrh Tablets at 50 cents for full sized package and they are probably the safest and most reliable cure for any form of catarrh.
