3IAR.IvABLE MERIT.
A new catarrh cure has recently ap
peared, which, so far as tested,. has been
remarkably, successful In curing all forms
ot catarrh, whether in the head, throat,
bronchial tubes, or in stomach," and liver.
The remedy is in tablet form, pleasant,
and convenient to take, and.no special
socrocy is maintained as to what it con- I
tains, the tablet being a scientific ■combi
nation of Blood Root, .Red Gum, and
.similar valuable and, harmless antisep
tics. -■■ - -- '.; " *-
The safe and effective catarrh cure'may
J'e found at any: drugstore under the*
.iame of Stuart's Catarrh Table ts. r .:
"VMiether the catarrh .is located .in the
throat, bronchial tubes, or stomach,
tlie tablets seem to act v with equal -sue-".
teess; removing the stuffy' feel:ng ; in head ,
tnd nose, clearing the mucous membrane
of .throat and trachea from catarrhal; se
<J"etions, which cause the i tickling, cougli
i'-^S, hawking, and gagging sd| annoying
to every catarrh sufferer." V
Nasal catarrh generaliyleads touicera-
• i'jn, In some cases to such- an extent as
to destroy, the nose entirely, and in many
°'d cases of ' catarrh the ? bones "of the
lirad become diseased. ;• Nasal : catarrh
gradually extends to the throat and
bronchial tubes, and' very often Ho the
stomach, causing, that very ..obstinate
