MY CATARRH BALM OPENS UP
NOSE AND HEAD-COLDS GO

dissolves the heat Of the nostrils; pen
etrates and heals the inflamed, swol-
len membrane which lines the nose,
head and throat; clears the air pas
sages stops nasty discharges and a
feeling of cleansing, soothing relief
comes Immediately.
Don't lay awake tonight struggling
for breath, with head stuffed; nostrils
closed, hawking and blowing. Catarrh
or cold, with it's running nose, foul
mucous dropping into the throat, and
raw dryness is distressing but truly
needless.
Put your faith-just once-in "Ely's
Cream Balm" and your cold or catarrh
will surely disappear.
