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 a
great many yars doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by coustantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure in the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the
bloodjand mucous surfaces ot the system
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address.
