BEWARE OF OINTMENTS FOR
CATARRH THAT CONTAIN '
MERCURY
As mercury will surely destroy
the sense of smell and completely
derange the whole system when
entering it through the mucous j
surfaces. Such articles should j
never be used except on pre- j
scriptiuns from reputable physi-1
cians, as the damage they will j
do is ten fold to the good you
can possibly derive from them.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufact
ured by F. J. Cheney & Co., To
ledo, 0., contains no mercury,
and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mu
cous surfaces of the system. In
buying Hall’s Catarrh Cure be
sure you get the genuine. It is
taken internally and made in To
ledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co.
Sold by Druggists. Price 75c.

j LETTER TO MR. A. JOHNSON,
j NEWPORT, ARK.
| Dear Sir: If it took 10 gal
I Ions to paint your house last time j
I with someboby else’s paint, and j
! takes 8 with Devoe, we save you
! $8 or $10, for painting costs two
I or three times as much as paint, i
Mr. Ezra Rathmell, Williams
port, Pa., always used 11 gallons
of mixed paint for his house; j
Devoe took 6.
But that isn’t all; that’s only ;
first cost; how long will it wear?1
The paint, that goes furthest
in covering, wears best too.
All paint, true paint, and full
measure, are on one side; part
j paint, and short measure are on
! the other. What can you ex
|pect? Yours truly
F. W. Devoe & Co.
