The renders of tlii* paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science Ijrs been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's
Catarrh Cure i* the only positivo cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional diseuwe, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is token internally, acting directly
upon the Mood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building tin the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.
