Norwalk is the Battlefield and‘the Fight is Waged with Disease and Death. The foremost citizen of the world, representing in his personality the acme of Christian civilization, has just died in intense agony in his English home of a malady that had its beginn- ing in catarrhal imflammation of the nasal passages. In this country thous- ands of men have met the same fate, the end often clouded by insanity, caused by the awful pain which noth- ing but death can relieve. But catarrh, which, though existing elsewhere, is so prevalent in America. that. it is known as the national dis- ease, after being long considered in- curable, has finally given way before advancing scientific achievement. The test was made in Norwalk, and to-day thousands of people from every part of the city acclaim the success of Cali- fornia Catarrh Cure, and the remark- able popularity of the medicine attests the confidence the people feel. In Norwalk it was tried and in Norwalk it was proved; and the 25 per cent. in- crease in the general health of the city is directly attributed, by those who know, to the introduction and wide- spread use of California Catarrh Cure. Its pOpularity is built upon such works as this: Mrs. A. B. Freeman, who lives at 8 Hanforcl place, says : “I have suffer- ed a great deal with severe headaches caused by cattarrh; my head was stuff- ed up and my throat also troubled me greatly. I got a bottle of California Catarrh Cure at Pla1sted’s drug store, and it has helped me very much in every way; it has cleared my head and keeps it clear, my throat is well and my headacheshave gone for 'good. I. must say it is a wonderful medicine and I am glad to recommend it.” Use 0.0.0. for hay fever, head colds, and all mucous diseases.
