of it clinch their faith in it
with a $500 guarantee, which
isn't a mere newspaper guar
antee, but "on call" in a
moment.
That moment is when you
prove that its makers can't
cure you.
The reason for their faith
is this:
Dr. Sage's remedy has
proved itself the right cure
for ninety-nine out of one
hundred cases of Catarrh in
the Head, and the World's
Dispensary Medical Associa
tion can afford to take the
risk of your being the one
hundredth.
The only question is are
you willing to make the test,
if the makers are willing to
take the risk?
If so, the rest is easy. You
pay your druggist 50 cents
and the trial begins.
If you're wanting the $500
you'll get something better
a cure!
