Which are Breathed to the Furthest Recesses of the Bronchial Tubes, Bring Quick Relief and Sure Cure. Every sufferer from coughs, colds, bronchitis and all throat and chest aliments needs a soothing, healing medicine which goes direct to the breathing organs In the chest and lungs, attacks the trouble at the source, disperses the germs of dis- ease, aud cures the ailment thorough- ly. And this medicine U "Catarrh- ozone." The germ-killing bul-amlr vapor mixes with the breath, descends through the throat, down the bron- chial tube*, and finally reaches the deepeat air cells lu tbe lungs. All parts r!" soothed with rich, pure, medicinal essences, whereas with a syrup the/ affected parts could not be reached, and harm would result through benumbing the stomach with drugs. "I hive been a chronic sufferer from Catarrh In the nose and throat for over eight years. I think I have spent four hundred dollars trying to get relief. I have spent but six dol- lars on Catarrhozone, and have been completely cured, and, In fact, have been well for some time. Ca- tanhozone Is the only medicine I have been able to find that would not only give temporary relief, but will always cure permanently. Yours sin- cerely (Signed). WI1.L.IAM RAQAN, Brockville.
