BEWARE OF OINTMENTS FOB CATARRH
THAT CONTAIN MERCURY.
a* mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely- derange thj
whole system wen entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never bo used except ou pres
criptions from reputable physicians, as
the damage they will do is ten fold to
the good you can possibly derive from
them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufac
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
O., contains no mrrcury, and is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucoussurfaces of the system.
In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure be sure
you get the genuine. It is taken in
ternally and made in To'.edo, Ohio, by
P. J. Cht-ney & Co Testimonials free.
