HIS Infallible Remedy does not, like the
poisonous irritating snuffs and strong
caustio solnt ons with which the people have
long been humhugged, simply palliate for a
short time, or drive the disease to the lungs as
there is danger of doing in the use of such nos
trums, hut it produces perfect and permanent
cures of the wsist case of Chronie Catarrh, as
thousands can testify. Cold in the head is cur
ed with a few applications. Catarrhal Head
ache is relieved and cured as if by magic. It
removes cttVnsivel rcath. loss or impairment 'of
the sene of taste, smelling or hearing, water
ing or weak eyes, and impaired memory, when
caused by the violence of Catarnh. as they fre
quently are. I offer in good faith a standing
reward of $500 for a case of Catarrh that I
cannot cure.
For tale by most druggists everywhere
Trice only 50 cents.
Ask yuiir druggist for the remedy : but if
he has not yet got it on sale, dont put it off by
accepting finy miserable worse than worthless
substitute, but enclose sixty cents to me, and
the remedy will be sent you postpaid. Four
packages $2, or one dozen for !j2. Send a two

frequently get out of order ? Is your urine
sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or is it
ropy on settling ? Or does a thick skum
rise to the top? Or is a sediment at the
bottom after it has stood awhile ? Do you
have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia?
Are your bowels constipated ? Do you have)
spells of fainting, or rushes of blood to tbe
head ? Is your memory impaired ? Is
our mind constantly dwelling on the sub

tired of company, of life ? Do you wish to

Does any little thing make you start or

Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant? The
bloom of your cheek as bright? .Do you
enjoy yourself in society as well ? Do you
pursue your business with the sanie ener

yourself? Are your spirits dull and flag

not lay it to your liver or dispepsia. Have
you restless nights ? Your back weak, and
have but littlo appetite, and you attribute
this to dyspepsia or liver-complaint?
Now, render, self-abuse, veneral disease
