There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton Of the country than all other dis
eases put together. and until the last
few years was supposed to be incura-
bic. For a great many years doctors
pronounced It a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con.
stantly failing to cure with local treat.
ment. pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. ]. Cheney & Co. Toledo. Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t
acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any Ease 1t
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
