abandoned five years ago for trunk

of the Orange experience. Here it
seems impossible to build to an out

must suffice. The plan he said seemed
to be good.

OF remedy Wouldn't you rather hold

never even saw and probably never will?
Common sense most enlphaticallv tells
you that we cannot afford to depart one
hairs breadth from the rigid truth
None of us can deny that there is such
a disease known as "catarrh" Those
who have it. or who have had it. know
that it is one of the hardest diseases to
cure.
Perhaps the worst thing about catarrh
is its prevalence. Almost everyone
especially in a climate like ours-has
catarrh in some form or another. That is
what has made the 'catarrh cure bust
ness so profitable. There are SO many
thousands OF cases of the disease and it is
so hard to cure, that the patent medicine
manufacturers hive reaped harvest in
preparing remedies that appeal to this
large class of sufferers.
One Of the most serious things about
catarrh is that it breaks down the sys-
tenn so that the sufferer becomes prey
to other diseases. This fact has led the
propretors of so many "catarrh cures
to advertise their remedies as specific
for almost every disease under the sun.
We have ONE catarrh cure that we
are willing to say to you; 1--WE know
this is all right. Take it home and use it
with the full assurance that if it does not
cure you, you can bring it back to us
and we will promptly refund your
money That catarrh cure is
