as they cannot reach the seat of
the disease. Catarrh is a blood
or constitutional disease, and in
order to cure it you must take
I internal remedies. Hall’s Ca
jtarrh Cure is taken internally,
| and acts directly on the blood
i and mucous surfaces. Hall’s
| Catarrh Cure is not a quack
j medicine. It was prescribed by
1 one of the best physicians in
| this country for years, and is a
regular prescription. It is com
posed of the best tonics known,
combined with the Dest blood
purifiers, acting directly on the
mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingre
dients is what produces such
wonderful results in curing Ca
j tarrh. Send for testimonials
