Cnre Secures National Popularity in Less Than One Year. Throughout a great Nation of 60,000.000 it is a desperate struggle to stcure even a recognition for a new article, to say nothing of achieving popular favor, and yet within one year Stuart's Catirrh Tab lets, the new catarrh cure, has met with such success that today It can be found in every drug store throughout tho United States and Canada. To be sure, a large amount of advertis ing was necessary in the flrst Instance to bring the remedy to the attention of the public, but every one familiar with the subject knows that advertising alone nev er made any article permanently success ful. It must have In addition absolute, undeniable merit, and this the new ca tarrh cure certainly possesses In a marked degree. Physicians, who formerly depended up on Inhalers, sprays and local washes or ointments, now use Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets because, as one of the most promi nent stated, these tablets contain in pleas ant, convenient form, all the really effi cient catarrh remedies, such as red gum. blood root and similar antiseptics. They contain no cocaine nor opiate, and are given to little children with entire safety and benefit. Dr. J. J. Reltlger, of .Covington. Ky., says: "I suffered from catarrh In my head and throat every Fall, with stop page of the noBe and irritation in the throat affecting my voice and often ex tending to the stomach, causing catarrh of the stomach. I bought a 5Q-cent pack age of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at my druggist's, carried them in my pocket and used them faithfully, and the way in which they cleared my head and throat was certainly remnrkable. I had no ca tarrh last Winter and Spring and consider myself , entirely free from any catarrhal trouble." Mrs. Jerome Ellison, of Wheeling, W. Va., writes: "I suffered from catarrh nearly my whole life, and last Winter my two children also suffered from ca tarrhal colds and sore throats so much they were out of school a large portion of the Winter. My brother, who was cured of catarrhal deafness by using Stu art's Catarrh Tablets, urged me to try them so much that I did so and am truly thankful for what they have done for myself and my children. I always keep a box of the tablets in the house, and at the first appearance of a cold or sore throat, we nip it In the bud and catarrh Is no longer a household affliction with us." Full-sized packages of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold for 50 cents at all drug gists. Send for book on cause and cure of catarrh, mailed free. Address F. A. Stu art Co., Marshall, Mich.
