4 FINE TREATMENT
FOR CATARRH

EASY TO MAKE AND COSTS LITTLE
Catarrh is such an insidious disease
and has become so prevalent during the
past few years that its treatment
should be understood by all
Science has fully proved that Ca
tarrh is a constitutional disease and
therefore requires a constitutional
treatment. Sprays. inhalers, salves and
nose douches seldom IL ever give last
ing benefit and often drive the disease
further down the ar f1ssages and into
ehe lungs
II you have Catarrh or Catarrhal
deafness or head-noises, go to your
druggist and get one ounce OF Parmint
double strength). Take this home
and add 10 IL 4 pint Of hot water and
ounces of graduated sugar; STIR
until dissolved, take one Tablespoonful
Z times a day
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head-noises,
clogged nostrils should open, breathing
become easy and mUcus stop dropping
into the throat
This treatment has 4 slight tonic ac-
ton which makes il especially effective
IN cases where the blood has become
thin and weak. It is easy to make,
tastes pleasant and costs little Every
person who wishes to be free from this
destructive disease should give this
treatment q trial-AdTertiseme
