THE aMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECOKPER: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1891. HE WAS A MISER. i. dead shot S „ht at the Mat of difficulty. Is aecom- ljhrd by the sure and atenily aim of r. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. Don’t fool around with a pop-gun, nor • “Flint-lock," whon this reliable “Win chester " Is within reach! Dr. Sage's treatment of Catarrh in the Head is far superior to the ordinary, and when directions are reasonably well followed, results In a permanent cure. Don’t longer be indifferent to the veri fied claims of this unfailing Remedy. The worst forms of Catarrh disap pear with the um of Dr, Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. Its mild, soothing, cleansing and healing properties effect a perfect and permanent cure, no matter bow bad the caa«L or of how long standing. It's a remedy that succeeds where every thing eke has failed. Thousands of such cases can be pointed out. That’s the reason its makers back their faith in It with money. They offer $600 reward for a case of Catarrh which they can not cure. It'S a medicine that allows them to take such a risk. Doesn’t common sense lead you to take Such a medicine ? “An advertising fake" you say. Funny, Isn't it, now some people pre fer sickness to health when the remedy is positive and the guarantee abtolute. Vise men don't pnt money back of “faking" ' “fakes." And ng” doesn’t pay. This is the way with the Ball corset: if you -want ease and shapeliness, -you buy it—but you don’t Iceep it unless you like it. After two or three weeks’ wear, you can return it and have your money. Comfort isn’t all of it though. Soft Eyelets, and "bones” that can’t break or kink—Ball’s corsets have both of these. For sale by GEO. D. WHEATLEY. His Wealth Found Would Maks His Poor Widow Rich.
