How to Destroy Catarrh
Germs and End Catarrh
Forever
0RB0N DE LUXE
and
AND0RB0N IDEAL
RANGES
Catarrh is a germ disease and the
only way to euro it so it will stay
cured and never come back is to kill
and drive out of your system the
catarrhal germs which have found
lodgement there. When the germs go
the catarrh will stop. The trouble
with most treatments, like sprays,
salves, creams, greasy balms, lotions,
etc., is that they give only temporary
relief by opening up for a while the
clogged head, throat and nostrils. In
a little time the catarrh comes back as
bad as ever.
People who suffer continually from
catarrh should drop such temporary
makeshifts and get

Funston also transmitted a communi

tain Smyser, Troop II, escaped from her
burning house clad only in a night
gown. The reason why more Americans were
not killed, it was agreed, was the fact
that Mexicans devoted considerable
time to looting.
