AN OLD COLD
Is Catarrh. and Catarrh Leads
to CONSUMPTION.

The tendency of oatarrh of the head
is to pass downward through the bron-
chial tubes to tho lungs. Any one who
has had catarrh of tho hend for year or
more finds the disease gradually pro-
crossing downward. In some cases the
progress is rapid, and in other cases Il is
slow; but sooner or later IL catarrh In
allowed to run, 1t will go to the lungs
and set up the disease known as con-
sumption. Itis doubtful If consumption
is ever caused by anything except ca
tarrh.
The catarrh usually begins as o cold in
tho head or throat, and is neglected until
ii becomes chronic; then it begins to
dawn on the victim that he has catarrh.
Unless he is very foolish indeed he will
not rest easy until the catarrh is entirely
cured. Thousands pay no attention to
it until it is too late.
Mrs. J. Priest, Lee, Mich, writes .--"I
think there is no medicine on earth that
excells Perunn. Ny husband won't tako
any other. We have tested it and it
worked n great change in my sons
health last spring when we thought he
was going into consumption. We gave
him only one bottle and he was all right.
I tell everybody about how much good
it has done us. My husband says he
can't do without it. AS for myself it
