There is more Catarrh in this sec I
tlon of the country than all other dis |
eases put together, aud until the
last few years was supposed to be in- J
curable. For a great many years doe
tors pronounced it a local disease an
prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly falliug to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Scienc
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheuey & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It J

fails to cure. Send for circulars and 1

Theodore Josephson, 515 Seventh
St., Astoria, Oregon, says: "About
five years ago I used Doan's Kidney
Pills and derived great benefit. At
that time I was suffering from se
vere pains across my back and loins,
at times so sever*' that I was unable
to stoop or straighten. My kidneys
also bothered me a great deal, the se
cretions generally being too frequent
In passage. At last Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention
and I procured a box. I used them
and as a result my health is now ex
cellent. I take a few doses of Doan's
Kidney Pills now and then, when
feeling any sign of backaehe and theyl
never fail to banish tho trouble."
