There Is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all diseases put
together and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced 1t
a local disease and prescribed local
remedies. and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
TO be n constitutional disease and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by +.
J. Cheney 4 Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
IL is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surface OF the
