The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, ana
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Curt Is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires
a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh cure is 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 constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer one
hundred dollars for any case that II
fails to cure. Send for list of testimon-
ials.
