Truly our present civilization battles with disease from the cradle to the grave, Unseen dan gers surrouud us ou every side, a slight cold or cough neglected may bring us untold miseries; Catarrh, Bronchitis, Consumption, with Death in the near future. To many it will l o a mat er of sur prise that C atarrh is viry frequently mistaken for C onsumption , the symp- tous in each being much alike,especial ly in the earlier stages. No one who reeogn Zis in bis ow n system, or who has frieuds or relatives with any of the symptons so accurately described, should fail to send a statement of the case to Mr. Childs. There may be hope ‘Sven in very desperate cases. The discovery of his cure for Catarrh has attracted groat alt-ntiou. Leading men everywhere, publicly state that Child’s treatment has cured them or the’r families of Catirrh or Tfnl|oat diffi eu'ties—among them clergymen, pliysi- ciuus, Dwyers, merchants, bankers and business men. All who have personally 'uvestigited the Dets, are satisfied that Mr. Cuilds has discovered a certain, positive and permanent cure for Catarrh, that when properly used never fails even in the most desperate cases. Catarrh is generally many years in gaining a foothold in the system,’and attacks so.manv parts of the body that it can not be cured by any one remedy or by a single application. It requires remedies that will meet the disease wherever it is located, and fight it inch by inch until a comp’eto victory has been obtained. Rev? T.
