CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and in order to cure it you
must take an internal remedy. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally
and acts through the mood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this
•ountry for years. It is composed of
some of the best tonics known, com
bined with some of the best blood pur
ifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Med
cine is what produces such wonder
ul results in catarrhal conditions.
