WANTED TO BE HEARD FROM

1t anybody has ever used the thorough
and scientific course of treatment recon-
mended by the proprietor Of DR.. Sage
Catarrh Remedy for the cure of Cartarrh
and has not been perfectly cured the pro-
prietor, DR. r. V. Pierce, would like to
hear from that person, and by addressing
him at the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo,
\. Y, such person, if there be one, will
hear of something to his or her advantage,
as the Doctor is in earnest when he offers
$500 reward for case of Catarrh which
he cannot cure, and is perfectly able to pay
il if he fails in single case, as any one may
ascertain upon enquiry. The thorough
course of treatment referred to and recon-
mended by DR. Pierce consists in the use Of
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy with Dr.
Pierce Nasal Douche which is the only
means by which the fluid can be carried
high up and applied to all parts of the ma
sal passages and the chambers connected
Herewith in which ulcers exist and from
which the discharge proceeds, In addition
to this thorough application of the Remedy,
which should always be used warm, DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should
be taken earnestly as constitutional treat
ment, without which few cases can be cured
as the disease is always constitutional and
must be treated accordingly. This treat
nent has no unpleasant features about it,
and has the advantage ofnever driving the
disease to the lungs as there is danger of
doing by the use OF strong, irritating snuffs
or poisonous solutions
