Spring and Summer Catarrh.

There is form Of catarrh especially
prevalent in spring and summer, called
by DR.. Hartman systemic catarrh.
This form of catarrh especially de-
ranges the stomach, bowels and other
organs of the abdomen. The whole
mucous tract lining the stomach, liver,
bowels and kidneys is in an infiamed
condition, and these organs fail to per-
form their proper function.
Systemic catarrh may be or may not
be accompanied by catarrh in other
parts Of the body. In some cases there
is hacking cough. 1t may be also as
sociated with catarrh in the head.
But, in typical cases of systemic ca.
tarrh all the organs of the abdomen are
In weakened and sluggish condition.
Dyspepsia ard BlIlousness.
Sometimes 1t Is called dyspepsia, at
other times biliousness, or the patient
may be suspected Of having kidney dis
ease or appendicitis.
Systemic catarrh presents symptoms
which resemble closely great many
different diseases.
