HONEY AND BEESWAX MARKET. 



CATARRH. 



CATARRHAL DEAFNESS-HAY FEVER. 

 A New Home Treatment. 



Sufferers are not generally aware that 

 these diseases are contagious, or that they 

 are due to the presence of living parasites 

 in the lining membrane of the nose and 

 eustachian tubes. Microscopic research, 

 however, has proved this to be a fact, and 

 the result of this discovery is that a simple 

 remedy has been formulated whereby 

 catarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay fever 

 are permanently cured in from one to three 

 simple applications made at home by the 

 patient once in two weeks. 



N. B. — This treatment is not a snuft or an 

 ointment; both have been discarded by 

 reputalile phj'sicians as injurious. A 

 pamphlet explaining this new treatment is 

 sent free on receipt of stamp to pay pos- 

 tage, by A. H. Dixon & Son, 337 and 339 

 West King Street, Toronto, Canada. — 

 Christian Advocate. 



Sufferers from Catarrhal troubles should 

 carefully read the above.
