RS TE Tae a ee ATARRH MUST BE CURED! ‘Makeshift Remedies Are Absolutely Worthless | Don’t thivk lightly of Ca- tarrh. Do not make the mis- ‘take of believing that it is merely an aggravated cold. Truly, this trouble usu- ally starts with what is ap- tly a cold in the head, beware of any cold that “hangs on.” You may as well bad it difficult to breathe, is but fealize at the outset that Ca- tarrh is.a serious disease and one that should not be trifled with. In fact, in many in- tances it is a forerunner of most dreaded of all dis- eases—consumption. Catarrh has become almost a universal ailment among the American people. Almost everywhere, in theatres, cars, and on the streets, there is a constant sniffling and hawk- ing, for’there is bound to be someone in almost every place who is afflicted with catarrh. And everyone is a possible vic- tim, for the germs of the dis- ease are easily communicated from one person to another. many people afflicted with this disease have been unable to find a cure, although they have taken many differ- ent kinds of treatment for years, until now they are al- most willing to believe the dis- ease is incurable. Like every- thing else, to find relief from this disease, the proper treat- ment must be resorted to. No other kind can be expected to it do any good. 4 Read what Mr. C. F.

Ig other words, this is not the disease itself, but nature’s method of informing the vic- tim that he has been attacked. You may treat Catarrh all your life with sprays, atom- izers, douches an@ similar local applications, and you will never be really rid of the dis- ease. The burning question, then, is, “How Can I Get Rid of Catarrh?” You have doubt- less used numbers of local remedies, and like every other sufferer you have found out that they are nothing but makeshifts and do you no permanent good.
