DEAR S1R: Under date of March I4th
sent you a careful statement of my case,
my former treatment, my failure to obtain
relief in that direction, my resort to your
treatment and its beneficial result.
have beer, since the winter Of 1874,
subject to violent periodical attacks of ca
tarrh, marked by febrila symptoms, vio-
! lent Inflammation of the lining mem
branes Of the cavities of the head, accom-
panied in the first stages by watery dis
/ charge from the nose, subsequently becom-
| ing scrid and yellow, and toward the close
! of the attack, purient and bloody. These
| attacks produced most distressing species
! of headache occurring periodically each
| day for period varying from one to three
! weeks, sometimes so violent as to wholly
| incapacitate me for business, and eonfne
me to bed. At times the attendant inham-
nation would extend to the teeth, oc-
casioning tOothaehe, or to the throat,
( producing hoarseness and partial loss OF
voice; and twice within the last few years
it has SO affected the left eye as to confne
me for weeks to q darkened room.
I had tried medicines and applications Of
various kinds; snuds and other catarrhal
preparations Of some half dozen kinds
applications to the head Of camphor, GIN
ger and hot fomentations of different kinds
and in connection with these the usual
emetics or cathartics employed to induce
counter action. But none Of these had
produced any permanent Improvement, and
in the few instances in which temporal re-
lief was afforded Il was at th9 expense oi
SO much strength as to leave me greatly ex.
hausted. Under these circumstances I wal
led, though with reluctance, from the sup.
posed incurability Of the disease, to make
trial Of your treatment. l found it sooI
| even beyond my hopes, reaching the dis
ease a5 it has never been reached before
and sllevisting its symptoms 70 an exten
which had supposed impossible. At th'
time gave you my former certificate
while did not feel assured of q eomplet
cure, I had obtained a material re
lief which amply repaid me for M
trial of your treatment, and which salts
fed me at that treatment was as efectiv
. as it was simple and philosophical. Asub
stantihl escape from my old stacks of cs
tarrh, for the unprecedented period of near
ly half year, and that in spite of sever
occurrences of illness which would nav
formerly rendered such an attack newt
! able, was to me, proof Of an important sue
cess. 1t is now SIX months since l sent yol
that statement, and, while it is unpleasan
to me to appear thus constantly, and il
this guise, before the public, it seems to m
matter of simple justice to yourself, an,
tothose who may be suffering as was, TO adj
that am not only as fully satisfied as to tn
utility and efficacy ofyour method oftreat
ing eatarrh as l was six months ago, but
am now Of the belief that if there is such
thing as cure for chronic catarrh, in m,
case substantial cure has been effected.
Yours, respectfully,
FREDERICK s. JEWELL.
