dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages and that is |
Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the medical

ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken in-
ternally. acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system there-
by destroying the foundation of the dis-
ease. and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative pow-
ers that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure. Send
