FEW PKOPliE REALIZE
The Bangor In Thnt Common Dis
ease, Catarrh.
Because catarrhal diseases are so
common and because catarrh Is not
rupldly fnlnl, people loo often nvctlook
and negleet It until some Incurable
ailment develops as a result of the
neglect,
The Inflamed condition of the mem
brane of tho nose anil throat makes a
terlllo soil for the germs of pneumonia
and Consumption, In fact catarrhal
pneumonia and catarrhal consumption
aro, the most common forms of these
dreaded diseases which annually
cause more than nno quarter of the
deaths in this country.
ttemedles for catarrh are almost as
ntnneious ns catarrh sufferers, but very
few have any actual merit as a cure,
the only good derived being simply a
temporary relief,
There is, however, u very effective
remedy recently discovered which In
rapidly becoming famous for Its great
value In relieving and piM'tnatienlly
curing till forms of catarrhal diseases,
whether located In tho head, throat,
lungs or stomach.
This new catarih cure Is principally
composed or ii gum derived from the
Ktirolyptus ti'ee, and this gum pos
sesses extraordlnarv healing and ant's
eptlc piopcrtles. It Is taken Internally
In the form of lozenge or tablet,
pleasant to the taste and so harm
less that little children take them with
safety and beiiellt.
Hticolvntus oil and the bark aro
sometimes used but are not so con
venient nor so palatable as the gum.
Undoubtedly the best (iiallty Is
found in Stuart's Catairh Tablets
which may be found In any drug store
and any catarrh sufferer who has tiled
douches, Inhaleis and lliiuld medicines,
will be surprised at the rapid improve
ment after a few days use of Staurt's
Catarrh Tablets which are composed of
the gum of the Kticolyptus tree, com
bined with other antiseptics which de
stroy the serins of catarih in the blood
and c.vpel the catarrhal poison from
the si'slem.
Dr. Itamsdcll, In speaking of Catarrh
and Its cure says: "After many ex
periments I have given up the Idea
of curing catairh by tlie use of Inhal
ers, washes, salves or liquid medicines.
I have always had the best results
from Staurt's Catarrh Tablets; the red
gum and other valuable antiseptics
contained In these tablets make them,
In my opinion, far superior to any of
the numerous catarrh remedies so ex
tensively advertised. The fact that
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold In
drug stores, under piotectlon of a
trademark, should not prejudice con
scientious physicians airalnst them be
cause their undoubted merit aud harm
less character make them n. remedy
which every catarih sufferer may use
wl"i perfect safety and the prospect
of a Derailment cure.
For colds in the head, for coughs, ca
tarrhal deafness and catarrh of the
stomach and liver, people who have
tried them say that Staurt's Catairh
Tablets are a household necessity.
