AN EASY WAY TO END
CATARRH FOREVER
Simple Home Treatment Destroys Germs
of This Dangerous Disease.

of This Dangerous Disease.
The reason why so many people who
suffer from Catarrh never seem able
to get cured is that they are continu-
ally seeking the momentary relief Of
sprays, douching, greasy creams, oint-
ments, etc. Such things do open up
the swollen nOstrils and clear the head
temporarily, besides stopping for a
while the disgusting blowing, hawking,
splitting and choking, but they never
cure. To drive out Catarrh for ood
you have got to get down to its real
cause. Catarrh is germ disease. The
air is always full of catarrh germs
thrown off by one person and absorbed
by another and when the system does
fail to throw off such germs they find
permanent Judgement in the nose,
throat and head and multiply rapidly.
The germs Of catarrh can be best
destroyed by inhaling the pure medi-

combination of oil of Eucalyptus with
other healing agents has a wonderful
germicidal action. You breathe its air
into your nose, throat and lungs by
means of a small hard rubber inhaler
which Daniel j. Fry and other leading
druggists here in Salem and vicinity
supply with every treatment. This
medicated air is certain death to the
germs of Catarrh and drives them com
pletely out Of your system and when
the germs are DESTROYED the catarrh
with all its disagreeable symptoms will
stop. Even two or three minutes use
will give refreshing relief, while, if
you will use it tow or thdee times a
day for a few weeks it will completely
