It means inflammation of a mucous membrane some where in the head, throat, bronchial tubes, stomach, bil iary ducts or bowels. It always means stagnant blood —the blood that is full of impur ities. Left alone, it extends until it is followed by indigestion, colds, congestion or fever. It weakens the system generally and spreads its operations until systemic catarrh or an acute illness is the result. Peruna Is the nation’s reliable remedy for this condition. It restores appetite, aids digestion, checks and removes inflammation, and thus enables the membranes, through which we breathe and through which our food is ab sorbed, to do their work; properly.
