The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dread
ell disease that science has been able to
cure in all it's stages, and that is Catarr'.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity. C:s-
tauh being a constitutional disease, re-
quires II constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
taccsEof the system, thereby destroying
tho foundation of tho disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing it's work. The propriotQrs have so
much faith in Its powers, that they af-
fer one hundred dollars for any case that
it fails to cure. Send for list Of tcstimon-
