A DAILY NUISANCE.
A Simple Remedy Which Will Inter
est Catarrh Sufferers.


In its earlier stages catarrh is more
of a nuisance than a menace TO the gen.
eral health, but sooner or later, the
disease extends to the throat, bronchial
tubes and even to the stomach and in
testines
Catarrh is essentially disease OF the
mucous membrane, the local symp-
toms being a profuse discharge of mu-
Gus, stoppage of the nostrils. irritation
in throat. causing coughing. sneezing.
gagging and frequent clearings of the
throat and head.
The usual treatment by local doUches,
snuffs, salves. etc, often gives tenn
porary relief, but anything ike a cure
can only be obtained by a treatment
which removes the catarrhal faint from
the blood and the disappearance of the
Inflammation from the mucous sur
faces.
A new remedy which meets these re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing ca
tarrh is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called a secret patent metii-
cine as they are composed of such val
liable remedies as Blood Root, Hydras-
tin. Red Gum and similar cleansing an
tiseptics. which cure by eliminating
the UlUOO anu Ll4EQQS surfaces
the catarrhal poison.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large
pleasant tasting lozenges taken inter
nalIy, allowing them TO dissolve slow
iy in the mouth-in this way they
reach the throat. fauces and the entire
alimentary canal
IF desired, they may also be dissolved
in water and used as a d0uche. IN adj
dition to the internal use, but it is not
at all necessary to use a douche; a few
of them dissolved in the mouth daily
will be sufficient However, when
there is much stoppage of the nose. a
douche made from these tablets viii
give immediate relief, but the regular
daily use internally of these tablets
win cure the whole catarrhal trouble
without resorting to the Inconvenience
Of a douche.
DR.. Bement states that the internal
treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking
the place of the old plan of douching
ard local application, and further says
that probably the best and certainty
the safest remedy at present on the
market is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. as
no secret is made Of their composition
and all the really efficient remedies for
catarrh are contained in this tablet
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets at 80 cents for full sized packages.
Ask your druggist. and * he is honest
he will tell you there is nc safer. more
paiatabie, more efficient and eonTen-
lent remedy on the market,
