HAVE YOU ANY OF THESE
Symptoms of Very Common TroubI


 There is no disease so common ia the United States as catarrh because 1t ap- pears in so many forms and attacks so many different organs.
 It is a common mistake to suppose that catarrh Is confined to the nose and throat Any inflammation of the mucous mem- brane wherever located, accompanied by abnormal secretions. is catarrh. Catarrh of the stomach or bladder, or intestines Is nearly as common as nasal catarrh and much more serious, although it is true that stomach catarrh and catarrh of other internal organs Is the result of neglected nasal catarrh.
 A new remedy has recently appeared which so far as tested seems to be re- markedly effective in promptly curing catarrh, wherever located. The prepara- ton Is sold by druggists generally under the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and in addition to being very palatable and convenient, possesses extraordinary merit in many cases giving immediate relief from the coughing. hawking and constant clearing of the throat and head, those symptoms with which everyone is familiar who has ever suffered from colds in the head and throat
 Catarrh Is simply continuation of these symptoms until the trouble becomes chronic and grows gradually worse from year to year.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are composed of Hydrastin. Red Gum and similar an- tiseptics and catarrh specifics, from which it will be seen that no secret is made of the ingredients and also that no mineral poisons are used. as is the case with many well known catarrh medicines.
 For catarrh of the nose, throat, bron- chial tubes, for catarrh of stomach, intes- tines or bladder no nre,a ra tion iu sr oa f i, and gives such rapid and permanent re- suits as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
 All druggists sell them at 50c for full sized package. You can use them with assurance that you will not contract the cocaine or morphine habit as the results from this catarrh cure are apparent from the first days use.
