The manager of a large manufacturing concern
in Toronto tells the pathetic story of how one oi
their travellers, a young man of great promise,
became addicted to the cocaine habit by using a
catarrh remedy containing this deadly drug.
Ill a few months he became a wrecl-;, mentally
and physically, and is now ending his life in an
insane asylum.
It is impossible to estimate the countless num-
ber ot' lives being sncriliceti to this dreadful
habit as a. result of using cocaine in 11 remedy for
catarrh. '
As a gnlarantee that Dr. Chase's Catarrh Cure
ls perfectly free from cocaine we publish the
l'ollo\\'ing ccrtiiicnte of ptlrity from Domllllon
Analyst Thos. H eys, ot' Toronto :-“I have made
a careful exaniinatioli of Dr. A. \V. Chase's
Catzlrrh Cure for cocaine or anyofits compounds
from samples purchased ill the open market and
find none present." (Signed) 'Ihos. Heys.
` The-eiiiciency of Dr. Chase's Catarrh Cure in
radically curing the worst cases of chronic catarrh
'is too well known to need further comment.
