There is more Catarrh in this sec¬

diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in¬
curable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
prescribed local remedies, and
by constancy failing to cure with lo-
1 treatment, pronounced it incur¬
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment, Hail’s Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, O., is the only constitutional
on market. If is taken intern¬
in doses from 10 drops to a tea
It acts directly on the

for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.
