MUST
Be CURED!

The most common mistake made
in the treatment of Catarrh is in
directing all effort toward the
symptoms. rather ts,an the source
of the disease. The inflammation
of the membranes in the nose and
air passages causing the head to
become stopped up. and making it
difficult to breathe. is but an in
dicaton of the disease. In. other
words. this is not the disease itself,
but natures method of informing
the victim that he has been at
tackled. You may treat Catarrh
all your life with sprays, atomizers,
douches and similar local applica-
tons. and you will never be really
rid of the disease.
The burning question, then, is
How Can Get Rid of Catarrh ?"
You have doubtless used numbers
of local remedies. and like every
other sufferer you have found out
that they are nothing but make
shifts and do you no permanent
good. S. S. S. has proven highly
successful in the treatment of Ca
tarrh because the real seat of the
disease is In the blood. and there
is no disorder of the blood which
does not promptly yield to this
great vegetable remedy. /
S. S. S. goes directly to the seat
of the disease. and routs out from
the blood every vestise of impurity.
No disorder of the blood can re-
main in competition with S. S. S.
1t simply eradicates every germ of
Catarrh from the blood. after
which the irritated mucous men,
branes promptly heal and the suf-
ferer once more enjoys perfect
freedom from this annoying dis
ease.
Our medical department will
gladly give you all necessary infor-
nation about the treatment of your
own individual case, for which no
charge will be made. Write today
