association in the state
Although the association realizes
that ii has gigantic task ahead OF il.
no one in the meeting doubted that

Catarrh is annoying enough
when it ehokes up your nostrils
and air passages. causing difficult
breathing and other discomforts.
Real danger comes when it reaches
down into your lungs.
This is why you should at once
realize the Importance of the prop

dies which touch only the surface.
