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 now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires q
constitutional treatment. Halls ca
tarrh cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by build
ing up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing lis work. The proprie,
