AN OLD COLD
Is Catarrh. and Catarrh Leads
to Consumption.

The tendency of catarrh of the head
is to pass downward through the bron-
chial tubes to the lungs. Any one who
has had catarrh of the head for a year or
more finds the disease gradually pro-
crossing downward. In some cases the
progress is rapid, and in other cases ii is
slows but sooner or later If catarrh is
allowed to run, it will go to the lungs
and set up the disease known as con-
sumption. 1t is doubtful if consumption
is ever caused by anything except CO.
tarrh.
The catarrh usually begins as a cold in
the head or throat, and is neglected until
it becomes chronic; then it begins to
dawn on tho victim that he has catarrh.
Unless he is very foolish indeed he will
not rest easy until the catarrh is entirely
cured. Thousands pay no attention to
it until it is too late.
