A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.


All Doctors have tried to cure CA
TARRH by the use Of powders, acid
gases, inhalers and drugs in paste form.
Their powders dry up the mucuous

away the same membrane that their
makers have aimed to cure. while
pastes and ointments cannot reach the
disease. An old and experienced prac-
titloner who has for many years made

ment of cATARRH, has at last per-
fected a Treatment which when faith
