WHAT CATARRH IS

It has been said that every third person
IL troubled with catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
indicates weakened condition of the
body; that the secretion of the mucous
membranes are quickly affected, and local
treatments in the form of snuffs and
vapors do little, if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.
