A remedy to really cure catarrh must be an Internnl remedy which will clea"nso the blood from catarrhal poi son and remove the fever and conges tion from the mucous membrane, The best and most modern remedies for this purpose are antiseptics scien tifically known as Eucalyptol, Guala col, Sangulnarla and Hydrastin, and while each of these have been success fully used separately, yet It has been difficult to get them all combined In one palatable, convenient and . eillclent form.
