IT'S IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking
When Using Catnrrh Medicines.

Catarrh is the short route TO consump-
ton. and the Importance Of early and
iu6icious treatment OF catarrh, whether
located in the head throat. or bronchial
tubes. cannot be too strongly emphasized
The list of catarrh cures Is as long as
the moral law and the forms in which
they are administered numerous and con-
fusins, from sprays, inhalcrs, washes
ointmcnts. and saIves to powders, liquids
and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly the most
convenient and most effective, but with
nearly all advertised catarrh remedies it
IS almost entirely d matter of guess work
as to what you are taking into your sys-
TEN. as the proprietors, while making all
sorts of claims as to what their medicines
VIII do, always keep IT a close secret as to
what they are.
The success and popularity of the new
catarrh cure, Stuarts Catarrh Tablets
is largely because it not only cures ca
tarrh but because catarrh sufferers who
use these tablets know what they are
taking into their systems Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets being composed of EuCalyp-
tOl, HydraStin. GuaicOl and similar valu-
able and antiseptic ingredients, and are
pleasant to the taste and being dissolved
in the mouth they take immediate effect
upon the mucous lining OF the throat
nasal passages and whole respiratory
tract.
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
have accomplished in old chronic cases of
catarrh are little short of remarkable,
and the advantage Of knowing what you
are putting into your stomach is of para
mount Importance when it is remembered
that the cocaine or morphine habit has
been frequently contracted as the result
Of using secret catarrh remedies.
StuartS Catarrh Tablets meet with cor
dial approval from physicians. because
their antiSeptic character renders them
perfectly safe for the general public to
use and their composition makes them q
common sense cure for all forms of ca
tarrhal troubles.
All druggists sell them at 50 cents for
full sized packages.

lie says Of this wonderful remedy:
st. Paul. Feb. Is. 1901.
Dear Sirs: I have been familiar
with the merits Of Paine's celery COM
pound for a number Of years. and have
used il when seriously run down from
overwork, both mentally and physic-
ally But its good qualities never ap-
pealed TO be 81 fOrCibly as during the
last campaign. The hard work deN9lv-
ing upon me, as Secretary of the State
Central Committee, affected my nerves
greatly and made il difficult for me 10
sleep. Paine.s celery compound imme-
diately restored the tone to my nervous
system and enabled me 10 secure re
freshing sleep
1T benefited me at once. and I do
not hesitate to recommend It TO my
friends who find themselves in the
same nervous condition
Very truly yours.

Paine's celery compound marks a ire
mendous stride in the cure OF disease.
No other remedy has ever succeeded IN
driving out the underlying causes q
nervous and organic trouble SO surely
and rapidly. No remedy represents so
comprehensive a knowledge Of nervous
exhaustion and the best means for its
alienation.
