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 a
constitutional disease, requires a con.
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the e~ystern. thereby destroying the
foundation OF the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con.
stitutiou and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have SO much
faith in its curative powers that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for testimon.
