A CERTAIN CURE
FOR CATARRH

IhemucOuS membranes of the nose
and throat are exposed to the irrita-
ting influence of dust, impure air,
etc, and for this reason are the places
Catarrh usually first manifests itself.
But these are simply exciting causes,
the Inflammation and discharge being
really produced by an impure and
vitiated condition of the blood. tits
well enough to use some local treat
ment to cleanse these membranes,
but any one can readily see that if
the inhammatory matter IS left IN the
blood, such treatment cannot possibly
have any permanent effect. S. S. S.
cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood
OF all impure catarrhal matter and
Irritating germs and at the same time
builds up the system by its fine tonic
effects. When s. S. S. has purified
the blood, the MUCOUS surfaces are all
nourished and made healthy. There
can be no Inflammation of the men,
brsnes then, because the blood is
pure, and every tissue receives nour-
ishment instead Of irritating matter.
Our book on Catarrh will interest
every sufferer of this disease, and it
will likewise give proper advice as to
what is best to use as a local aid
while S. S. S. is purifying the blood.
This book is free to all, and we will
also be glad TO give any special advice
you may feel you need. S. S. S. is
