Confessions of a

Some of the Experiences That Catarrh
Forces Upon Its Slaves.

| get boiling mad when people tell
me I've got catarrh. I've had dozens of
mere acquaintance, and especially one
young lady, who have come up and
ventured to tell me something for
my own benefit" That expression be-
gins to pail on me-"for my own
benefit" 1t seems they all want to
tell me the same thing. You ought,
to take something for your catarrh;
I'll tell you how my cousin got cured,
and every doctor used to say he had
the worst case he ever heard about"
Now, when a friend puts his hand on
my shoulder, l gulp in preparation for
catarrh advice. This gulp is not mere
throat action, but the swallowing of
mucous. Nothing would suit me bet
ter than to have the earth open and
swallow me up.

curbstone. When ! ride on a car, |

to open my mouth to breathe ! wish
that kisses were obsolete. l wish that
handkerchiefs could be turned into

thousands of little nerves that run from

the brain. When they do they are
weakened, and sometimes destroyed.
What affects the nerves is bound TO

set about to ridicule the Gauss Catarrh

shreds They turned on the CLEAN and
dissected 1t. They expected to find
mere dross, and found gold. SO Gauss
has been discovered by his enemies.

When the man first sat down and
began loudly tearing out a throat
hawk, the audience shifted nervously.
After continuing the draw rattle of his
catarrh through one of the most stir

gave vent to its feelings. He was
roughly handled on the way out and
sustained several severe bruises. He
was taken to the county hospital.
1t is such occurrences as these which
make the catarrh victim one of the
despised of his race. He can't help

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 will lead to. Men Of
robust health have succumbed to re-
sulting consumption and partial idiocy.
Women of strong vitality have become
nervous wrecks and victims of bron-
chtis. Your good health is not always
q preventative against the catarrh
germs.
The more you feel sure there is no
danger of the catarrh resulting in a

there is; simply because you neglect
