There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurabe For great many
years doctors pronounced it a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing TO cure with local treatment,
pronounced 1t incurable. Science has proven
Catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & CO., Toledo, Ohio, Is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoOnful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case il
fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi.
monials. Address F. j. Cheney & Co., To-
ledo, O. Sold by Druggists, Toe.
Halls Family Pills are the best.

ReDOrt Denied.

Chancellor Kirkland of Vanderbilt
University has officially stated that
there is no truth in the published re-
port that the college department of
Vanderbilt University was to be re-
moved from Nashville to Chattanooga.
He says that the board of trustees has
no intention of separating the academic
department from the professional
schools, and that the whole work of the
university to encourage the founding of
nigh grade academies to prepare stu
dents for college and the esta blishment
of such a school at Chattanooga would
be an important and desirable move,
but, even if this were done, it would
not be undertaken directly by the uni
yerSitV itself
