Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes; it ts a
deep seated blood disease in which the
entire Circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. It is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because of the sensi
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, ete., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu
cous membranes are badly congested
and inflamed from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh pe^
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un
healthy matter. Nothing equals
