" Facts Are Stubborn Things.”

Thousands .of human beings are yearly borne on the swift current of disease down to the grave, just because they do not possess a sufficient knowledge of themselves. A man meets his neighbor and the first salutation is: “ How are you?" or “ How is your health?” The reply frequently is: “Oh, I am well, with the exception of a cold.” Most persons lightly regard a cold. Reader, do you know that a cola is one of the most dangerous of maladies? A cold not only clogs up the pores of the entire system, arid ‘retards circulation, but it is productive of Catarrh, which is quite apt to lead td Consumption. “Oh,” you say, “it is nothing but a cold in my head.” True; but that cola is really a mild form of Catarrh, and if not arrested in its course will become chronic. Catarrh is one of the most disagreeable, offensive affections in the catalogue of diseases. The passage to the nose is obstructed, the sense of smell impaired, and therp is a disagreeable sensation of pressure in the head, iu the more advanced stages therd is a discharge having an offensive odor. If the disease be allowed to continue in its course, thick, hard incrustations will form in the head, the bones of which sometimes become, softened and break away in pieces. Why will persons continue to suffer from such an annoying, disgusting disease when they can just as well be cured of it? Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy will cure the worst forms of Catarrh; in fact, it is the only sure and safe remedy which has yet been offered to the public. Many harsh, irritating preparations may, for a time, relieve the urgency of the symptoms, but they do not cure the disease. JDr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy is soothing and} healing in its effects, and when used with Dr.' Pierce’s Nasal Douche, according to directions, does not fail to effect a cure. Sold by all Druggists.
