No one can escape tho La Grippe germ uccause wnen an epiucmo or mo disease Is prevailing tho air is laden with It. Tito reason that everyone docs not havo the disease at tho some tlmo Is because tho persons who aro enjoying perfect health are abla to successfully resist and throw off tho Infection, wlillo those, who for nny renson nro not In tho best of health, fall ready victims. The first symptoms nre those of acute catarrh resembling a hard cold and if prompt treatment is applied at this time, it can easily be broken up; one of the best remedies at tills stage is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, sold by druggists everywhere and If taken freely, say one tablet every hour1 or two for two or three days, the danger of pneumonia and serious complica tions will be averted. The Rev. L. K. Palmer, Baptist clergyman of Ceresco, Mich., makes a statement of Interest to all catarrh and grip sufferers. He says: "Stu art's Catarrh Tablets liuve certainly been a blessing to me. I havo used them freely this fall and winter and have found them a safeguard, against La Grippe and catarrhal troubles from which I have suffered for years. I feel that I can freely nnd conscientiously recommend them." Persons who suffer from catarrh of the head and throat are very suscep tible to La Grippe and such will find a pleasant, convenient and safe rem edy in this new catarrh cure. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are com posed entirely of harmless antiseptics and may bo used as freely as necessary as they contain no cocaine, 'opiate or poisonous drug of any kind. SOUTH SCRANTON NOTES.
