CATARRH Catarrh has become such a common disease that a person entirely free from this disgusting complaint is seldom met *- * * ^ 1 f WltU. it IS cusiomary lOSpeaK vi v..tiauu as nothing more serious than a bad cold, a simple inflammation of the nose and throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and very dangerous disease; if not at first, it , very soon becomes so.

Salves, washes and sprays are unsatisfactory and disappointing, because.they dc not reach the seat of the trouble. S. S. S. does. It cleanses the blood of the poison and eliminates from the system all catarrhal secretions, and thus cures thoroughly aud permanently the worst cases. Mr. T. A.
