300 REWARD SIUO.

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
constitutional 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 doing its work. The
proprh9to rs have so much faith in its cur
rative powers. that, they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.
