Peculiar Ideas Regarding Common
Diseaae.


Mark Twain's cure for cold in the
head was simple. but he claims very
effective in his own case f,s plan was
to eat nothing whatever for twenty
four hours or presumably until the
trouble had disappeared.
Although not able to speak from
personal experience as to the effective
ness Of this treatment, il certainly has
the merit Of extreme economy. but IL
occurs to us that the application Of it
to a case Of nasal catarrh might be
attended with difficulties.
Catarrh, as everyone knows. is a
chronic cold in the head and Mr..
Twain's treatment, if it should be-
come a fad would make Of us ma
ton Of fasters; an army. emulating the
example of the immortal Tanner. who
achieved world wide fame by fasting
forty days
Catarrh Is certainly becoming a ma
tional disease and there is little doubt
but that errors in diet particularly
over-e4ting is a. very common cause.
Mt,st people, however, are more in
tere.sed in the cure Of the trouble than
in the cause and modern medical
science has produced more effective
and less heroic remedies than Mr.
Twain's
Hydrastin is a new remedy. very eff
fective in some forms Of Catarrh Red
Gum is another which on account Of its
antiseptic properties is very ve;iaale.
while many severe cases Of Chronic
Catarrh have been entirely c rcI by
the sanguinaria or extrect OF blood
root alone.
within a year an enterprising
chemist has combined all Of these
remedies in tablet form, palatable and
convenient and the superiority Of this
tablet over other catarh remedies is so
apparent that all druggists now carry
them in stock to supply the popular
demand.
They are called stuart's Catarrn
Tablets and it is doubtful if any medi-
cine has achieved a national populari-
ty in so short time as this.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are used
by thousands of travelling men because
they can be carried in the pocket and
used any time and in any quantity
being free from Cocaine. opiste or any
poisonous drug.
They clear the head and throat from
the disgusting secretions of catarrh.
very often in few hours time.
For nasal Catarrh they are far su-
perior to any wash lotion or ointment
the use of which is often as inconven-
lent and annoying as he disease Itself
For coughs. colds. bronchial catarrlI
and catarrh of stomach t'lese tablets
give immediate relief and a permanent
clre where lotions. douches and inhal-
ers make no impression whatever
This preparation is boon to catarrh
sufferers AMI any dreeSpt III tel,
