The Delco is the best lighting and
light power system on the market and
are ideal for country use, where light

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and for years it was sup
posed to be incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Catarrh is local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional con-
ditions and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine. manufactured by F.. ]. Cheney &
