or inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
1t cleans out the head. nose, throat and
lungs so that you can again breathe
freely and sleep without that stopped
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers
have. 1t heals the diseased mucous
membranes and arrests the foul dis
charge, so that you will not be con-
stantly blowing your nose and splitting,
and at the same time it does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach, as
medicines do.

Cline, who was in bed nearby, sprang
to his feet and the father fired three

ordering the immediate publication oil
20, 900 bulletins on the prevention OF d.

will be distributed broadcast through
the state for the information lof the
people. The health authorities arc
anxious to push the war on diphthcria
TO a successful finish this year and are
invoking every means at their disposal.
The state laboratories are making
hundreds OF examinations for the
diagnosis Of diphtheria FREQ OF cost,
thousands OF units OF diphtheria anti
toxin are being sent out hourly, and
the department is endeavoring to make
arrangements with the supervisors OF
eli the counties, by which 4 supply Of
antitoxin will be kept in all the counties
for immediate use.
There is no communicable disease, !"
said an official OF the Health Depart
ment today, where science can do more
for the alienation ofsufferjng than in
liphtheria. 1t is possible to make an
accurate diagnosis at an early stage Of
the disease, to administer treatment
which is all but nfalible and to take
precautions which will positively and
finally prevent the spread Of the dis
case. We believe that the mortality
from diphthcria in the state can be re;
duced Is per cent il the people will CO.
