A Simple internal Remedy Makes Remarkable Cures of Catarrh. People who have used sprays, inhalers, salves and washes for catarrh and havo. found how useless and Inconvenient they are. will be agreeably surprised as re sults following the use of a pleasant In ternal remedy in tablet form: druggists, everywhere admit that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, which they sell at 50 cents for full-sized treatment. Is the safest, most effective and popular of all catarrh remedies. Nearly all cheap cough mixtures and throat lozenges contain opiates; these cheap medicines give a temporary relief, especially with little children, by de stroying rerve sensations: the irritation In throat which causes coughing Is tem porarily removed, not by removing the cause but by deadenlnV the nerves of feeling the Irritation Is not felt, although It Is still there and will promptly return. Stuirt's Catarrh Tablets Is the best remedy to remove catarrhal secretion, whether In the nose, throat or stomach, because they are composed of whole some antiseptics Blood Root, Red Gum from Eucalyptus tree, etc. When you use these tablets you know what you are putting Into your system, and not taking chances with . cocilne, opiates or similar poisons found In so many catarrh cures and cough medicines. Dr. Ramsdell, In commenting on ca tarrh cures, says: "I can heartily recom mend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, because they contain no cocaine nor other danger ous drug found In so many advertised catarrh cures. I have known of many cases of long-standing catarrh of the head' and throat completely cured by the dally use of these tablets for several weeks.x One case In particular, which I could not reach with an inhaler or spray, and where the catarrh caused dally head aches and a noticeable loss of hearing, was entirely cured by this harmless but effective remedy." Dr. Wain wrlght says: "I never hesi tate to prescribe Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets for catarrhal headaches and catarrhal deafness, because I know them to be perfectly safe for child or adult, and have seen many remarkable cures result ing from their ri?ulnr dally use; because they are advertised and sold In drug stores Is no reason why any good physi cian should not use them, because we shou'd seize upon the means of euro wherever found." Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are specially valuable for catarrhal colds In childrep, because they are pleasant tb the taste and may be used freely to break up se vere colds and croup at the very be ginning. i iy tm f BLUE VW1 I f I SIGNATURE A A 1 I Ll GUARANTEES I 0 OEBIG ICOMPANY'S TMS BEWARE OF yvSJ"jS GOODS'
