Though its offensive features are sometimes almost unbearable, few people are aware of the danger of which Catarrh is the forerun? ner. Catarrh invariably leads to Consumption. Growing worse and worse each winter, those who rely upon the usual treatment of sprays, washes and inhaling mix? tures find that it i? impossible to cheek the disease with these local applications which only reach the surface. The ofTensivo discharge increases nil the while, causing a feeling of personal defilement, and get9 deoper and deeper until it is j only a question of a short time until the lungs aro affected. The importance of the proper treatment can therefore be readily appreciated. But no good what? ever can bo expected from local applications, as such treatment never did cure Catarrh, and never will. "I hnd puch a severe case of Catarrh that 1 lost my hearing in one ear. ami part of the bone in my nose slouched off. I was constantly treated with sprays and washes, hut each winter the disease seemed to have ft firmer hold on mo. I hud finally been de? clared incurable when T decided to try S. S. S. It seemed to pet riuht at the seat of the disease, and cured me permanently, for I have had no touch of Catarrh for seven years. "Mrs. Joskpuins Pot.him., "Due West. S. C." Those who have had the first v/yS^^Sv touch of Catarrh r ^tIb will s?veendless J^^^Sl?sP? Buffering by tak Y**\ y m% *'10 right \1R 4Lm* wmedy at the <<&&?Qt^*$L outset. Others ^S^raJ?0fewho have for WZ WNffltr yea rs sough t re lief and found only disappoint? ment in local treatment will find it wise to waste no further time on sprays, washes, inhaling mix? tures, etc., which are only tempo? rary and can not save them from Consumption. Catarrh is a deep* seated blood disease. S. S. S. ia the only remedy which can reach the very bottom of the disease and euro it permanently.
