There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed 'to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and» by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halt's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo. Ohio, is the only constitutional cure ■on the marker. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon fill, it acts directly on the’ blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. >■ nd for circulars -and testimonials Address: P. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio.
