SIOO REWARD 800

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 con-
stitutional 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
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials
Sold by Druggists, 75c.
Halls Family Pills are the best.
