Therefore, the only effective treatment is a thorough course of Ayer's Sarsaparilla the best of all blood purifiers. The sooner yon begin the better ; delay is dangerous. "I was troubled with catarrh for over two years. I tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi cians, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this medicine cured me of. tnis troublesome complaint and com pletely restored my health." Jesse M. Boggs, Eolman's Mills, N. O. ""When Ayer's Sarsaparilla was rec ommended to me for catarih, I was in clined to doubt its efficacy. Having tried so many remedies, with little ben efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. I bad nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system was badly deranged. I was about discouraged, when a friend urged me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and re ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh. After taking half a dozen bcttles of this medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood." Charles H.
