There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and untII the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it 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 a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by f. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and muc-
GUS surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.
