UNDERSTAND this
NOW! CATARRH
CAN Be RELIEVED

Of the disease the odor from the
breath is very offensive.
Catarrh is usually worse in winter
because Of over-heated rooms and Of
fices. and because the low tempera-
ture prevents the little relief that
healthy sweating viii give. The poi
son Initiated air in stuffy rooms IS
breathed over and over-in fact,
the daily habits Of men and women in
winter are faithful allies Of this dis
ease. As the blood circulates through
( the body. it carries Catarrh germs into
the stomach. causing clEonic dys-
pepsla: it affects the kidneys and
bladder; it weakens the general health
and causes loss Of appetite The suf-
ferer feels respondent and half-sick
most Of the time. but the greatest
danger lies in the fact that II the
Catarrh is not checked. the lungs may
I become involved. terminating in Con-
sumption, the most insidious Of all
diseases
I Don't expect to permanently cure

( Catarrh, because it goes right into
