BUT YOU. CAN'T RELY ON
SPRAYS AND IN
HAIGhto. ei7af

There is no use permitting your
self to be deceived. Perhaps, like
thousands Of others afflicted with
Catarrh, YOU are about ready to
believe that the disease is incur
able, and that you are doomed to
spend the remainder Of your days
hawking and splitting, with no re-
Lief in sight from inflamed and
stopped-up air passages that make
the day-s miserable and the nights
sleepless.
Of course this all depends upon
whether or not you arc willing to
continue the old-time, make-shlft
methods Of treatment that you
and many other sufferers have
used for years with no substantial
results. Ii you are still content to
depend upon the use q sprays,
douches, inhalers, jelIics and other
like remedies by themselves, that
are applied to the surface and can
not reach below it, then make up
your mind now that your Catarrh
will remain a life companion and
will follow you to the grave.
You must realize that the disease
itself, and not its r'-mptoms, is
what you have to cure. Of course
you know that when you are cured
of any disease its symptoms will
disappear. Catarrh manifests
itself by inflammation Of the deli.

ing the school a "footban' and de-
clare they "despise the obnoxious
