Stomach dos- ing is no longer necessary. Z The most approved treatment consists of a healing vapor resem- bling the pure air of the Adiron- dacks. This soothing vapor is full of germ-destroying substances, and at the same time is al powerful heal- ing agent. It is sent to the bron- chial tubes and lungs through a skillfully devised inhaler that can be carried in the vest pocket. Sim- plicity itself is the keynote of this splendid treatment. * ATARRHOZONE is the name of this wonderful invention that is daily curing chro bronchitis and catarrh. Every breath through the inhaler is laden with soothing, healing substances that destroy all diseased conditions in the breathing organs. It can't fail to cure because it sees where the trouble really exists, and doesn't attempt to cure an illness in the head or throat by means of medicine taken in to the stomach, Catarrhozone is a direct, breathable, scientific care. There is no sifferer from a grip- py cold or any winter ill, that won't find a cure in Catarrhozone, which is employed by physicians, mihisters, wv HOP, WEATHER SUPPLIES 8 at the UNIQUE MEAT MARKET Where you can get Cooked Meats of all kinds.
