COPENHAGEN, October 3l.-Reports

In German newspapers concerning the

The very fact that Catarrh is
often considered to be nothing more

and throat has caused many people
to go through years OF suffering, who
might have been fully restored to
health had they realized that tho
supposed cold in the head was not
local trouble only, but that they
had become infected with the germs
Of complicated and dangerous dis
ease.
1t is true that Catarrh usually he.

this supposed cold may have been
caused by infection through prox-
Unity to infected persons in closed

germs when some one coughed or
sneezed; but, however the infection
occurs. the poisons which are taken
into your system ultimately find
their way into your blood and the
supposed cold becomes a constitu-

part of your body. The poisoned
blood circulating through your sys-
tenn will carry these germs to the
very source OF your vitality.
Look out for these symptoms, for
there Is no moro annoying or dan
gerous disease than Catarrh. There's

worse and worse, sometimes leading
