The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment,
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by build
ing up the constitution and assisting
nature IN doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in its curative
powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case thatit fails to cure.
