gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies and
by constantly failing to cure 1t by local
treatment pronounced It incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufact-

The Agricultural Profession,

The educated agriculturist is slowly

the retirement of every quack and the
corresponding advent Of the thinking

thus brought one step nearer its true
position that it justly held in Roman

No medicine, no manipulation, no mesmer-

which has been submitted to the hardest

agent.
Diseases pronounced incurable by the
ablest medical profession are many times the
cases that heal the most rapidly under the
