the one that's made by the propri-
ctors of DR.. Sagc's Catarrh Remedy.
Unusual, but made in good faith.
It's reward of $500 for an incura-
bic case of Catarrh. If You have
one, the moneys for you. But you
can't know whether You have one,
till you've tried DIR. sagc's Remedy.
What's incurable by any other
means, yields to that. BY its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, it cures the worst cases,
no matter of how long standing.
That's the reason the money can be
offered. There's risk about it, to
be sure. But it's so small that the
proprietors are willing to take it.
The symptoms of catarrh are,
headache, obstruction of nose, dis
charges falling into throat, some
times profusc, watcry, and acrid, ct
others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody, putrid and often
sive; eyes weak. ringing in ears,
deafness; offensive breath; smell
and taste impaired, and general
debility. Only a few of these
symptoms likely to be present at
once.
