WHAT CATARRH Is

IL has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oif-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.
