There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nouncedi it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, man
ufactured by F. ]. Cheney & Co., To-
ledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure in the market. 1t is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucus surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials. Address,
