TFN He season of catching cod is upon us.
L The cough and the sneeze and nasal
twang are to be heard on every hand. The
origin of chronic catarrh, the most com
mon and dreadful Of diseases, is a cod.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gen
orally 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 pas
sages which incline one to catch cold very
easily. At last the person has a cold ali
the while seemingly, more or less discharge
from the nose, hawking, splitting, frequent
clearing of the throat, nostrils Stopped up,
full feeling in the head and sore, iniiamed
throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. X bottle Of Peru1a prop
erly used never fails to cure a niTpo
cold, thus preventing chronic catarra.
While many people have been cured of
chronic ca5arrh by a single bottle Of Pc
rllna, yet, as a rule, when the catarrh be-
comes thoroughly fixed, more han one bot
tie is necessary to complete q cure. Pc
runa has cured cases innumerable of ca
tarrh of twenty years standing. 1t is the
best, if not the only internal remedy fer
chronic eatarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom Of cold or sore throat at this
season of the year and thus prevent what
is almost certain to end in chronic catarrh.
