DROPPING IN
THE THROAT.
Nasal Catarrh in all its Stages
a Menace to General
Health.
Blood Wine Heals the Diseased
Membranes-a Modern Treat
ment Endorsed by all Ply
sicians.

When catarrh of the head gets to
place where the discharge runs down
the nasal passages and drops into the
throat it has reached the danger point.
If you wait until it goes that far don't
let it 90 any further-for the next place
it attacks is the bronchial tubes and the
lungs. Catarrh undoubtedly causes more
consumption than anything else, and like
consumption it must be treated through
the blood. Local applications at best
can only serve to work out the dis
charges. They don't get at the root of
the trouble, and sometimes, quite. often,
in fact, they irritate the inflamed outer
surfaces and aggravate the disease.
.Blood Wine' passes into the blood and
purifies it.
The poisonous matters, which keeps
the membranes of the head and respir-
atory organs, are filtered, passed out of
the system and the diseased parts heal
ed, to stay healed. 1t will stop the drop
ping in the throat and all discharges,
sweeten the breath, relieve the irritation
of the nasal passages, throat and wind
pipe. 1t overcomes the burning, smart
ing sensation in the eyes. 1t removes
the distractions in the head, and makes
breathing easy and enables you to stop

THE POSSIBLE EFFECT.

Meantime, we need not be surpris.
ed if all Europe looks at our flushed
and feverish hospitality with sardonic
amusement 1t takes republican
country to entertain a prince! We
may expect our herculean effort to do
things correctly, and not to tread on
the toes of etiquet, to be food for sar-
castle editorials, and cuts in the comic
weeklies for many days to come. There
is only one thing they don't quite un-
derstand over there. Our noble rage
of entertainment rises not alone from
the simple unsophisticated JOY of a
democratic people at the sight of a
prince, but from an eXuberant pride
in our own country. We want to i'm
press royalty with what an altogether
colossal Overwhelming place this re-
public is. We want to send him home,
