full sized treatment, is the safest, most
effective and popular of all catarrh
remedies.
Nearly all cheap cough mixtures and
throat lozenges contain opiates; these
cheap medicines give a temporary re-
lief, especially with little children by
destroying nerve sensation; the irritation
in throat, which causes coughing is tenn
pOrarily removed, not by removing the
cause but by deadening the nerves of
feeling the irritation is not felt although
it is still there and will promptly return.
StUart's Catarrh Tablets is the best
remedy to remove catarrh secretion,
whether in the nose, throat or stomach
because they are composed of wholesome
antiseptics Blood root, Red gum from
Eucalyptus tree, etc, when you use
these tablets you know what you are
putting into your system and not taking
chances with cocaine. opiates or similar
| poisons found in so many catarrh cures
and cough medicines.
DR.. Ramsdell in commenting. on ca
tarrh cures, says: Il can heartily re-
! commend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, be-
cause they contain no cocaine nor other
| DANGEROUS drug found in so many adj
Vertised catarrh cures. / have known
of many cases of long standing catarrh
of the head and throat completely cured
| by the daily use of these tablets for sew
eral weeks. One case in particular,
which L could not reach with an inhaler
or spray and where the catarrh caused
daily headaches and noticeable loss of
hearing, was entirely cured by this
entirely harmless but effective remedy
DR. Wainwright says: II never hest

let's for catarrhal headaches and ca
tarrhal deafness because / know them
to be perfectly safe for child or adult
and have seen many remarkable cures
resulting from their regular daily use;
because they are advertised and sold in
drug stores is no reason why any good
physician should not use them because
we should seize upon the means of cure
wherever found"
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are especial
~ valuable for catarrhal colds in child
dren because they are pleasant to the
taste and may be used freely to break
up severe colds and Group at the very
beginning.
