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 Q constitutional disease, requires a 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 do- ing it's work. The proprietors have so much faith in it's curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address
