Catarrh Cannot Be Cured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they can- not reach the seat of the disease. Ca- tarrh is a blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you must take inter- nal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure 1s taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and mucous suriaces.

Most discases start in the alimen- tary canal-—-stomach and bowels. A great deal of our stomach and bowel troubles come from eating too much starchy and greasy food. The stomach does not digest any of tho starchy food we eat—white bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.——these things are digested in the small in- testines, and if we eat too much, as most of us do, the organs that should digest this kind of food are overcome by excess of work, so that fermenta- tion, indigestion, and a long train of alls result. Too much fat also is hard to di- gest and this is changed into acids, sour stomach, belching gas, and a bloated, heavy fecling. In these conditions a change from indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will work wonders in not only relieving the distress, but in bullding up =a strong digestion, clear brain and steady nerves. A Wash. woman writes: “About five years ago 1 suffered with bad stomach-—dyspepsia, indi gestion, constipation-—caused, I know now, from eating starchy and greasy food. “I doctored for two years without any benefit. The doctor told me there was no cure for me. I could not eat anything without suffering severe pain in my back and sides, and I became discouraged. “A friend recommended Grape Nuts and I began to use it. In less than two weeks I began to fee! better and inside of two months 1 was a well woman and have been ever since. “I ean oat anything I wish with pleasure. We eat Grape-Nuts and cream for breakfast and are very fond of it.” Name given by Postumn Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
