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 incurable. For
great many years doctors pronounced it a
local disease and prescribed local rene
dies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls
