Catarrh Cannot be Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the di
sease. Catarrh is a blood or consti
tutioaal disease, and in order to cure
it you muit take internal remedies.
Hall's Catarrh Cure Is taken intern
ally, and acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is not a quack medicine. It
w6 prescribed by one of the best
physicians in thiB country for years,
and is a regular prescripton. It is
xmposed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood puri
fiers, acting directly on the mucous
$urfaces. The perfect ombmation of
the two ingredients is what, pro
duces such wonderful results in cur
ing Catarrh. Bend tcr testimonials

BRAIN-FOOD NONSENSk.
Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most com
petent authorities, They have dis
pelled tbe silly notion that, one kind
of food is needed for brain, another
for muscles and still another for
bones. A correct diet wiU not only
nourish a particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroTed
by indigestion or dyspepsia. You
must prepare for their appearance

regular doses of Green's August
