Quick Relief-
From Catarrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and ifc
Costs Nothing to Try
Those who suffer from catarrh
know its miseries. There is no need
of this suffering. You can get rid of
it by a simple, safe, Inexpensive,
home treatment discovered by Dr.
Blosser, who, for over thirty-six
years, has been treating catarrh suc
cessfully. His treatment is unlike any other,
it is not a epray, douche, salve,
cream, or inhaler, but is a more di
rect and thorough treatment than
any of these. It cleans out the head,
nose, throat and lungs so that you
wifVo,?1 be?the froely and sleep
without that stopped-up feeling that
all catarrh sufferers have. It heals
the diseased mucous membranes and
,eSiSntho .ul dIscharge, so that
you will not be constantly blowing
ll ?,Se n$ spitting, and at the
same time it does not poison the sys-
iSF nJ riUln tj10 8toiaach, as inter
nal medicines do.

SrnJ . a B1sser, 144 Walton
Street, Atlanta, Ga and he will send
you by return mail enough of the
medicine to satisfy you that It is all
he claims for it as a remedy for ca
tarrh, catarrhal headaches, catarrhal
deafness, asthma, bronchitis, colds
and all catarrhal complications. H
will also send you free an illustrated
booklet. Write him immediately.
