simply exciting causes, the nhdm-

enough to use some local treatment
to cleanse these membranes, bui
any one can readily see that if
the infammatory matter is left in
the blood, such treatment cannot
possibly haue any permanent effect.
S. S. S. cures Catarrh by purifying
the blood Of all impure catarrhal
