science has been able to cure in all its stages. and
That is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only

Catarrh being a constitutional disease requires a

taken internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease and giving
the patient strength by building up the constitu-
