There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment. pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven cataTTh to be a constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by +. j. Chen
sy & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure the market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
