The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dread disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that
is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
emily positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for
