few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con
~stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a con
st%itutional disease and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Halls
