There can't be' anything more v i.enous to. a sick man or sick; woman where voii can etat us every day in the . isaa n edy that we know ' ia fight thai we can k back up with all our reputation for hoiw csty and square-dealing. , And wouldn't you ratlftr bdy'that kind of a remedy ? Wouldn't you rather hold us responsible than to - hold no one responsible?

" " i ; To-day, and perhaps for some time to j.come, we want to talk about that big class of remedies known generally as i-; "catarrh cures.'! ' ' j Broadly speaking these are the patent , , medicines that have been the chief tar .' gets for the attacks of the "Ladies' ',, Home Journal," "Collier's Weekly" and other magazines which are waging such a lively warfare against patent medicine - - abuses. ' As we have pointed out in previous i . tajks, it is not our business to pass judg , ment on the crusade of these well known, highly-resrtected publications. The public alone must "be the judge and - jury. Our business, as we see it, is to carry in stock a complete line of patent : i medicines; and to sell those medicines at ; K the lowest possible price. We sell hundreds yes, thousands of bottles of so-called "catarrh cures," and know nothing of their ingredients. The K manufacturers advertise therri, the public ' d?mands them ;. we order them from the manufacturers," and sell them at the low est price. ,That is absolutely as far as s ; our knowledge goes. The manufacturer 'Si keeps his formula a secret. It may be good, or it may not -we don't know, and we have no means of finding out. . v; V Naturally we would rather sell a rem- patronage; your inuuence. can we anora to tell you anything that you will learn later is not absolutely true? Are you not safer in taking our word , for the merits of an article, than you are to rely on the printed statement of a pa tent medicine manufacturer, whom you '-''' never even saw arid probably'never will? Common sense most emphatically tells you (hat we cannot afford to depart one hair's breadth from the rigid truth, None of us can deny hat there is such' a disease known as "catarrh." Those who have it, or who have had it, know that it is one of the hardest diseases to CUre. . ' , Perhaps the worst thing about catarrh' is ifs prevalence. Almost everyone k especially in a elimr.tc like ours-has catarrh in some form or another. That is 1 "what has-mnde the "catarrh cure" busi ness so profitable. There are so many thousands pf cases of the disease and it is ; so hard to cure, that the patent medicine manufacturers lnve reaped a harvest in.' preparing remedies that appeal to this-" large' class of sv.ffcrrrs. One of the mor.t serious things about catarrh is that it breaks down the Sys tem, so thit the stifforeT becomes a prey to other disenscs,- This fact, has led the ' proprietors of n many "catarrh cures" . . to advertise their' remedies as a specific. for almost every disease under 'the sun. We have ONE catarrh cure that we are willing to say to you; "We know this is all right. Take it home and use it . with the fuli assurance that if it does not cure you, you can bring it back to us and we will .' promptly: refund your t money."
