War Notes.

The war with Spain is over, but the
battle of disease with health is still on.
1t RACES hottest in spring. Disease, bred
during the rigors of winter, turks in the
system to do its deadly work. You
don't feel well. You have no appetite.
You are nervous. You have Indigestion,
which you think is heart trouble. You
are dizzy, feel tired, discouraged, and
about ready to give up the battle. Bax-
ter's Mandrake Bitters is the effective
weapon in this warfare, and who is arm
ed with it, always conquers. Sold liquid
in bottles, and tablets in boxes. Price
% cents for either. 1t makes folks well.

The readers Of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disc ase 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 constitu-
tional disease, requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces OF the system, there
by destroying the foundation OF the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The pro.
prietors have so much faith in it's cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.
Send for list of testimonials.
