Why Tolerate Catarrh?
You have noticed.no doubtthat any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh and the
tiow of mucous amazes you that such
objectionable matter could find lndg-
ment in your head. J'o 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-
tril- frequently with a solution of warm
water and salt insert vaseliqe 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
ami heal the sensitive membrane*.
Jjoott's is pleasant to lake.

The bachelor girl may maintain her
.wn establishment. Stic may live by her-
self. She may work for herself. She
may choose for herself. She is a free
hi.! separate entity with no one to render
account to hut heraelf.
She no longer wears oor^w rew curia a
vinegar frown and the -ast off cudhe* of
t.ie matrimonially elecL Instead you will
-ee her coif fed smiling and smart the

“Yes I liked them a lot. but not

"Not enough to run the ri»k of stretching

"As it is there is no one to ask me why
