The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cnre in all it's stages, and that Is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires cons titutional treat ment. Halls Cararrh Cure is taken internally, acting direct ly upon the blood and mucous sur faces of the system, thereby destroy ing the fouDdation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by build ing up the constitution and assisting nature in doing it's work The proprie- tors have so much faith in it's curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.
