THE season of catching cold is upon
us. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand The origin of chronic catarrh.
the most common and dreadful Of dis
eases, is a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches cold
which hangs on longer than usual The
cold generally starts In the head and
throat. Then follows sensitiVeness of
the air passages which incline one to
catch cold very easily. At last the per-
son has a cold all the while seemingly,
more or less discharge from the nose
hawking, splitting. frequent clearing OF
the throat nostrils stopped up, full feel
ing in the head, and sore, infiamed
throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at
the very beginning. A bottle of Peruna
properly used never fails to cure a com
mon cold, thus preventing chronic ca
tarrh.
While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by single bottle of
Peruna. yet, as rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed more than
cure. Peruna has cured cases innumer-
able of catarrh of twenty years stand
ing. It is the best if not the only inter
nal remedy for chronic catarrh in eX-
istence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the
slightest symptom of cold or sore throat
at this season of the year and thus pre-
vent what is almost certain to end in
chronic catarrh.
