In every country Of the civilized world
the Sisters Of Charity are known. Not
only do they minister to the spiritual
and intellectual needs of those with
whom they come in contact but they
also minister to their bodily needs.
They are as skilled az trained nurses in
their treatment Of disease, and are looked
upon as messengers Of good cheer by
countless patient sufferers,

mankind arc due to some catarrhal de-
rangement Of the mucous membrane
lining some organ or passage OF the
body. a remedy that would act immo-
diately upon the congested mucous
membrane, restoring 1t 10 Its normal
state, would consequently cure all these
diseases. Catarrh is catarrh wherever
located, whether IL be in the head, throat,
lungs, stomach, kidneys, or pelvic or
gans. A remedy that will cure IL in one
location will cure it In all locations.
