Although physicians have known for years that cataarh was not a local disease but a constitutional or blood order," yet the mass of the still continue to believe It Is simply a local trouhle and try to cure It with purely local remedies, like powders, snuffs, ointments and Inhalers.

These local remedies if they accomplish anything all, simply give a Very temporary relief and it Is doubtful If a permanent cure of catarrh ha? ever been accomplished by local sprays, washes and Inhalers. They may clear the mucous membrane from the excessive eecretlon, but return In a. few hours as bad as ever, and the result can hardly, oe otherwise because the blood Is loaded with catarrhal poison and It requires no argument to convince anvone that local wastes and sprays have absolutely no effect on the blood. Dr. Alnsworth says: "I have long since discontinued the use of sprays and washes for catarrh of the head and throat, because they simply re leve and do not cure, For some time past I have used only or.e treatmpM for all forms of caatarra and the results have een unlformlly good, the remedy 1 use anl recommend la Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a pleasant and harmless preparation srld by druggists at but my experience has proven one package of Stuart'i) Catarrh treatments.

The tablets are coniposd of Hydras tin, Sasgulnarla. Red Cum, Oualaroi and other safe antiseptics and any catarrh sufferer can ue them with full assurance that they contain no poisonous opiates and that tbev are the moit reasonable and successful treatment for radical cure of catarrh at present known to the profession. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large pleaiant tinting 20 grain lozenges, to be dissolved In the mouth and ream the delicate membranes of. throat and trachea, and Immediately relieve any Irritation, while their final action on the blood removes the catarrhal poison from the whole system.
