WHAT'S CATARRH?
BY DR.. w. c. Cotton.

The catarrh myth is about ex-
.ploded. Authorities agree now
that there is no such thing as
"catarrh" in the common sense of
the word, There are a number of
things that can happen to nasal
passages and cause discharge
from the nose. Some of these
troubles are very unpleasant, but
as a rule they are not dangerous
or even serious.
If your "catarrh" so-called
bothers you, see a reputable doc
tor. Whatever you do, don't buy
any patent nostrum for the treat
ment of catarrh.
For many of these nostrums
contain cocaine and are very in
furious.
Avery good remedy is applied
in the form of salt water. One
teaspoonful to a. hot glass of
water gargled and shifted up the
nose morning and before retiring.
The mild cases will disappear un-
der this treatment.
