AT FIRST GLANCE,
1t Would Appear That Local Rem
edies Would Be Best for Cure Of
Hotorrb

IL would seem at first glance that
catarrh being a disease of the mu-
cous membranes; that salves. sprays,
etc. being applied directly to the
membranes of the nose and throat,
would be the most rational treatment
but this has been proven not to be
true.
The mucous membrane Is made and
repaired from the blood and catarrh
is a blood disease and any remedy to
make n permanent cure must act on
the blood, and when the blood Is puri-
fed from catarrhal poison, the secre-
tions from the mucous membrane will
become natural and healthy.
In this climate, thousands of people
seem scarcely ever free from some
form of catarrh; it gets better at times
but each winter becomes gradually
deeper seated and after u time the
sufferer resigns himself to II as Il
necessary evil,
Catarrh cures are almost as numcr-
Gus as catarrh sufferers, but are nearly
all so inconvenient and Ineffective as
to render their use a nuisance nearly
as annoying as catarrh itself; anyone
who has used douches, sprays and
powders will bear witness to their in
convenience and failure to really cure.
There are a number of excellent In
ternal remedies for catIrrh, but prob
ably the best and certainly the safest
H. a new remedy, composed of Eucaly-
ptol. Hydrastis. Sanguinaria and other
Valuable catarrh specifics.
This remedy is in tablet form, pleas
ant to the taste and sold by druggists
under the name of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, and anyone suffering from
catarlh may use these tablets with
absolute assurance that they contain
no cocaine. opiate nor any poisonous
mineral whatever.
A leading druggist in Albany speak
ing OF Catarrh cures says: "1 have
sold various catarrh cures for years,
but have never sold any which gave
such general satisfaction as StuartS
Catarrh Tablets. They contain I'm a
pleasant. concentrated form all the
hest and latest catarrh remedies. ami
catarrh sufferers who have used
douches. sprays and salves, have been
astonishcd 1T the quick relief and per-
manent results obtained after q weeks
use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets" All
druggists sell fun sized packages for
| fifty cents.

This Is used by the natives in some
sections as yams are used.
Bitter cassava Is much larger, SONS
roots weighing 100 pounds, and Is used
extensively In the manufacture OF the
different forms of starches, such as
tapioca and the common laundry
starch. Brazil exports about 100000
worth of these products annually.
With proper cultivation, selection OF
varieties, hybridizing and with i'm
provements in machinery for handling

ducts, this industry should develop
into a very important business.
