Nothing could excocd tho old

In tho childish delight of that old

Itdfker TiSkiy,
the offer that's made by the pro-
prietors of DIR, Sage's Catarrh Rem
cdy, Risky for them. For you, il
you have Catarrh, it's n certainty.
You're certain to be cured of it, or
to bc paid $500. That's what they
offer, and in good faith they euro
you, or pay you, no matter how bad
your case, or of how long standing.
But-is it so much OF risk ?
They have medicine that cures
Catarrh, not for time, but for all
time. They've watched il for years,
curing the most hopeless cases.
They know that in your case there's
every chance of success, almost no
chance of failure.
Wouldn't any one take such n
risk with such medicine !?
The only question is--arc you
willing TO make the test, If the
makers are willing to take tho
risk
If so, the rest is easy. You pay
your druggist fifty cents and the
trial begins.
