Dangerous to Experiment
With Treatment That Gives
Only Temporary Relief.

You see everywhere people with
stopped up air passages, who seem to
breathe only with the greatest diff
ficulty. There is constant hawking
and splitting in an effort to clear the
throat and nostrils, and what appears
at first to be only slight cold holds
on with stubbornness until a fully
developed case of Catarrh has the vic
tim firmly within its grasp.
There is not the slightest doubt
that all this suffering is caused by a.
tiny disease germ that gets into the
blood and multiplies by the million.
The catarrh germ attacks the delicate
mucous membranes of the nose, throat
ard air passages.
L These become choked up with the
aeeumulations, seriously interfering
with the breathing apparatus, and
causing u told suffering. There is
usually a cough, irritated throat, sore.
ness of the membranes and constant
discomfort.
If you have ever been afflicted with
Catarrh, you know something of the
suffering and Inconvenience the dis
ease causes. You know, too, that it
cannot be cured by the application of
sprays, lotions, ointments, jellies. or
other local treatment. Even if such
treatment does succeed in opening the

soon become clogged again, and there
IS no progress made toward cure Of
the disease.
In addition to the suffering and in

is always danger that the disease will

a case of consumption has developed
from q severe attack of Catarrh.
The most satisfactory treatment for
Catarrh is S. S. s., the unrivaled blood
purifier, which so promptly routs
and climates from the blood the
germs of Catarrh. In this way, it gets
rid of the cause of the disease by going
direct to its source, cleansing the blood
thoroughly, and building up and re-
newing the entire system.
S. S. s. has been on the market for
more than fifty years, and has been
thoroughly tested in thousands Of
cases of Catarrh. If you want to be
rid of the disease, throw away your
makeshift remedies, and begin on
S. S. S. to-day. You will be delighted
with the results, as others have been.
S. S. s. is sold by drug stores every

you are invited to write for free ned
