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 a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional con
ditions and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Medi
cine, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a constitutional
remedy, is taken internally and acts
thru the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. One Hundred Dollars re
ward is offered for any case that Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimoni-Us.
