Why Tolerate Catarrh?
You have noticed.no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
objectionable matter could find lodg
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsides is
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate linings of the nasal
passages and clog them up.
To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos
trils frequently with a solution of warm
water and salt, Insert vaseline on re
tiring, and take a spoonful of Scott's
Emulsion after meals for one month.
Scott's acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes.
Scott's is pleasant to take. ,
