A CERTAIN CURE FOR CATARRH The mucous membranes of the nose and throat are exposed to the irrita ting influence of dust, impure air, etc., and for thia reason are the places Catarrh usually first manifests itself. But these are simply exciting- causes, the inflammation and discharge being really produced by an impure and vitiated condition of the blood. It is well enough to use some local treat ment to cleanse these membranes, but any one can readily see that if the inflammatory matter is left in the blood, such treatment cannot possibly have any permanent effect. S. S. S. cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all impure catarrhal matter and irritating germs and at the same time builds np the system by its fine tonic effects. When S. S. S. has purified the blood", the mucous surfaces are all nourished and made healthy. There can be no inflammation of the mem- branes then, because the blood is pure, and every tissue receives nour ishment instead of irritating matter. Our book oa Catarrh will interest every sufferer of this disease, and it will likewise give proper advice as to what is best to use as a local aid while S. S. S. is purifying the blood. This book is free to all, and we will also be glad to give any special advice you may feel you need. S. S. S. is sold at drug stores. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO.. Allatttm. Cm.
