CURE OF CATARRH:
From Rev. Fred. s. Jewell, Professor oi
 State Normal School Albany, N. '.

From Rev. Fred 8. Jewell, Professor of
 State Normal School. Albany, N '.
 This may certify that I have been, sil co 1S44, subject to violent periodical attacks oa catarrh, marked by a highly unframed condit ton of the lining membranes of the casittss vt the head, producing most distressing specive of headache for days at a time, wholly incapae. itating me for business, and during the parox. ysms contining me to the bed. In some in- stances the inflammation has extended to ths teeth, occasioning toothache to the throat, producing hoarseness and partial loss of voice and twice it has so affected the left eye as to confne me for month or tnorA tb a darksu. ed room. These attacks have been accom- paiI. jed by strong febrile symptoms ; by stobbaEe of the head, and, in the first stages, by watery discharges from the nose subsequently, becoms ing acrid and yellow, and towards tue close of the attack beroming bloody and purulont. 1 have tried medicines of almost every kind {; external applications to the heal such as cam. phor; ginger, hot bandages, and lamentations of hot vinegar snuffs of some half a dosen kinds, and other catarrhal preparati9hs, tls gether with internal remedies, such as aitsrS lives, cathartics, and cosmetics. These have produced no change in the occurrence or char acter of the disease, and, in most cases, with little or no temporary relief. 1 had come, at length to believe the disease to be practically beyond either cure or material alleviation.
 Under these circumstances was led, some five months ago, to make trial of Dr. Lighth ills treatment. His method at once approved itself to my judgment as simple, philosophical, and likely to be effective. Notwithstanding the disadvantages under which 1t laborea, in dealing with disease of such long standing, aggravated by nervous debility and dyspepsia, and constantly induced by the accidents of my professional labor found the treatment reach, ing the disease as it had never been feaehed before and producing such modi6catfop and alleviation of its character, as had snpposeA impossible. chronicle the feallts thus. AL though have been situated several times so that should formerly have believed a severe attack of my catarrh inevitable, l have es- capped thus far. The symptoms of threatened attack have been very light, and have yielded to the remedies applied by Dr. Lighthil1, with. out need of recourse to the old fefInentatiOns, or emetics and the discharges from the htad have resumed the original and natural condi- : tiou. That have been able to obtain so ma. terial relief, Is to niea cause of gratitude. In that alone am repaid for whatever the ex. pertinent may have cost me.
 I make this statement unsolicited, as R means of acknowledging my obligation to Dr, Lighthill's method ot treating catarrh, and with view to aid any one who may have suf. fered from that disease, in forming just opin. ion ofifs merits, and. it's probable utility iR their own case. (Signed)

 Since I first publicly acknowledged the great benefit which 1 received from the skillfnl treaB ment of Dr. Lghthill, in regard to my hearing, letters of inquiry have incessantly poured up- on me from all parts of the country from par- ties desiring to learn the particulars of my case, and am indeed surprised at tue number of individuals who are affected similar to the manner in which have been, and therefore feel it more and more sacred duty which 1 owe to those sufferers, to. direct them to q proper and reliable source to obtain the bene- fit they so much covat, and which SO many afflicted ones have hitherto sought in vain. just as had done previous to applying to Dr. Lighthill.
 had bad from infancy one very deaf eat which always discharged more or less offensive matter, and was the source oi the greatest an. noyance and discomfort to me. Last year the othe r ear also became diseased, and both ears highly offensive. My hearing became very much impaired and the discharge produced the greatest debility of body and depression of spirits. applied to my family physician and other practitioners without deriving any ben: eft, and almost despaired of bfing restored to health when providentially, applied to pr. Liehthi1l. Under this treatment my ears be.
 
 so. Iuntii, in a. comparative short time, b. tf ears were healed. the discharge removed, and my hearing restored. At first feared the cure would not be psrmanent, or that the stoppage of discharges of so k ng standing might prove detrimsntal to my general health, feaf which find a great many entertain in regard to the emoval of discharge from the ear. Nv experience, however, has proved conclusiyel1 that my appreheneions were entirely ground. less in both respects, for both ears are as well, and my hearing as good at present. as the dav left of treatment. and the stoppages of ths discharge. instead of proving detrimental tc my health. has given me the highest elasticity and vigor of body, and . How of spirits not ei perienced for long time previous.
 wish the above statement might serve q. . feneral answer to those interested. but should one or the other desire to apply to me persops ally, or by letter. will cheerfnlly satisfy ell rsasrnsble- demands upon my time.
 avail myself of this opportunity of again publicly sxpressing my deeply felt gratitnet Eto Dr. Hghthill. whom Iesteem as gentis man and man ofsc.ance. ip whom ne hien. csc confidence may Le placed. - ,~ la
