A FEW REASONS
Which Are Rapidly Taking a New
Catarrh Cure Famous,

Siunrt's Catarrh Tablets the new
'atarrh cure has the Following advan-
tages over other Catarrh remedies.
FIRST These tablets contain, no CO.
came. morphine or any other injurious
drug and are as safe and beneficial for
children as for adults this is an i'm
portant point when II is recalled that
many catarrh remedies do contain these
very objectionable ingredients
Next: Being in tablet form this REM
edN does not deteriorate with age. or
an exposure to the air as liquid prep
arations invariably do.
Next: The tablet form not only pre-
serves the medicinal properties but II
is so far more convenient to carry and
to use at any time that II is only n
question of time when the tablet will
entirely supersede liquid medicines as
1t has already done in the medical de-
partment of the United States army.
Next: No secret is made of the COM
position of Stuart's Cntarrh Tablets:
they contain the active principles Of
Eucalyptus bark red gum. blood root
and Hydrastn. all harmless antisep-
tics which. however. are death to ca
tarrhal germs wherever found. because
Next: You can not cure catarrh by
local applications to the nose and
throat because these are simply local
symptoms and such treatment can not
possibly reach the real seat of catarrh-
al disease which s in the blood: for
this reason, inhalers. doucles. sprays
and powders never really cure catarrh.
but simply give temporary relief which
Il dose of plain salt and water will do
just as we'll
'atarrh must be driven out Of the
system out of the blood. by an internal
remedy because they contain every
safe specific known to modern science
in the antiseptc form of the disease.
Next The use of inhalers. ANA
spraying apparatuses. besides being in
effective and disappointing. is eXpen-
sive. while Il complete treatment of
StuartS Catarrh Tablets can be had
at any drug store in the United States
and Canada for so cents.
