Thank Heaven We Have
Such a Man as Gauss

There is no case too serious for Mr.
Gauss to consider; no case too slight for
considerate attention; whoever writes n
him receives a prompt reply; whatevsr
questions are asked are answered, and
advice is freely given. 1t is his liberal
treatment of every one, the broad view
that he takes of every ones whims and
eccentricities, and his sympathy for the
afflicted, that has so often brought forth
in letters received from happy patients
all over the land this sentiment: Thank
heavens, we have such man as Gauss 80

POINTED PARAGRAPHS

ment.
We believe in telling the truth and
saving time
Common sense wins. Write and ask
any of Gauss patients.
Down in the mouth can apply to the
spirit as well as the catarrh.
Half of the unhappness in the world
comes from little intlammations. Cure
them early.
All great things are conceived in
Sweat Gauss worked hard and pro-
duced a cure that will live after him.
Some would know q great deal more
about being able to cure catarrh if they
could forget a lot of old Ideas they
never should have learned.
The reasons of the strongest always
yield to the strongest reasons-common
sense. Gauss Treatment prevails for
the same reason.
If the catarrh victim would stick to
the treatment as faithfully as the ca
tarrh sticks to him, that disease would
probably be as infreQuent as the now
conquered diphtheria.
There are some people who instead of
making the best use of the chances they
have for a cure, are always telling of
what they might do under happier cir
Cumstances Send the coupon.

Some Results
of Catarrh
Even Slight Cases of Catarrh Have
Terrible Consequences.

Every case Of catarrh, of course, is
not fatal. Nor does every case result
in consumption or bronchitis, but new
ertheless they are very frequent. No
man or woman knows what his or her
case Of catarrh would lead to- Men
Of robust health have succumbed to
resulting consumption and partial lido
cy. Women of strong vitality have be-
come nervous wrecks and victims of
bronchitis. Your good health is not
always a preventive against the catarrh
germs

danger of the catarrh resulting in

Catarrh Kills Thinking Power
Gradual Cloudine of the Brain and
Loss Of Memory Inevitable
Result OF Catarrh

Catarrh anywhere in the head or
throat or ear is right next to the brain.
The catarrh germ grows fast, does an
enormous amount of damage in its bur
rowings into bone and flesh and is diff
hcult TO destroy. There are thousands Of
little nerves that run from all parts of
the face and head TO the brain Some
of these little nerves have TO pass
through probably a mass of catarrhal
intlammations on the road to the brain.
When they do they are weakened, and
sometimes destroyed
What affects the nerves is bound TO
affect the brain, and when the nerves
are deddened 10y constant catarrhal dis
charges there is bound to be a certain

SlcepleSsnesS, inability TO think clearly
or to connect ideas, loss Of memory,
lack of concentration, lack of presence
Of mind ana wandering Of thought
IF any man or woman imagineS that
these things do not affect their earning
capacity. their Cheerfulness and the es-
TEEN which their friends have for their
brightness, they have little realization
of the necessity of keeping the mind
always clear. That is All there is TO life.

Catarrh Everywhere, Even
On Pixies Peak.
No Man or Place Is immune From the
Deadly Catarrh Germ.

There Is no part of the land which is
free from catarrh. Attitudes and lati-
tudes have little effect in destroying
this omnipresent germ. Many mag
inc that the climate of the West, with
its high attitudes and dry atmosphere,
tends to prevent catarrh. There are
just as many cases in proportion to the
population west as east of the Missis-
sippi, only the disease is not as severe
because of the climatic effect upon the
nerves.
Even on Pixies Peak, which is over
$4,000 feet above the sea level, casarrh
seemed to attack several of the at
taches of the signal station located
there some years ago.
No place is exempt, no human soul is
immune from catarrh. Don't imagine
because you don't live by lake or a
river that you can't have catarrh, or
that you have only a chronic cold when
your nose has been stopped up for
some time. That is usually the way
catarrh starts-with a bad cold
