DR.. LiglthiH:
! DEAR sIR Under date of March I4th
sent you 9 careful statement of my case,
my former treatment, my failure to obtain
relief in that direction, my resort 10 ycur
treatment and its. beneficial result.
/ have been, since the winter Of 1874,
subject to violent periodical attacks of ca
tarrh, marked by febrile symptoms, vio-
lent Inflammation of the lining mem
branes of the cavities of the head, accom-
panied in the first stages By a watery dis
charge from the nose, subsequently becom-
ing acrid and yellow, and toward the close
of the attack, purient and bloody. These
attacks produced q most distressing species
Of headache occurring periodically each
day for period varying IRON one to three
weeks, sometimes so violent as to wholly
inespacitste me for business, and eoniue
me to bed. At times the attendant fnfiana-
nation would extend TO the teeth, oe-
casioning toOthsehe, or 10 the throat,
producing hoarsene5s and partial loss Of
voices end twice within the last few years
it has so affected the left eye as 10 csnfipei
me for weeks to darkened room.
I had tried medicines and applications Of
various kinds snufs and Other catarrhal
preparations of some half g dozen kinds
applications &c the head of campho-, gin
ger and hot Concentrations of different kinds I:
aad in connection with these the usual
snetics or csthartics employed to induce
counter action. But none of these had
produced any permanent mproVemens, and
in the few instances in which temporal rs
lief was afforded il Yves at the expense of
80 much strength esto leave mo greatly ex.
hausted. Under these circumstances / we
led, though with reluctance, from the sup
posed incurability of the disease, TO man
g trial Of your treatment. l found it soon

and sileTiating its symptoms to an extent
which l had supposed impossible. At the
time gave you my former certificate,
Whilo did not feel assured of q complete
cure, had obtained q material re-
ilsf which amply repaid me for my
SriSA =. Oi yeE1r treatment, and which salts
neo me at Jnat treatment Was -. --eE~el:-,o
Gs it was simple and philosophical. A sub
stsntisl escape from my old attacks OF ca
tarrh, for the unprecedented period of near
" half a year, and that in spite of severe
occurrences Of Illness which would have
formerly rendered such an sttaok newt
able, was to me, proof of an important suc-
cess. 1t is now months since sent Won
that statement, and, while it is unpleasant
to me to -PpesT thus constantly, and in
this guise, before the public, it seems to me
a matter Of simple Justice to yourself, and
t9those who may be suffering as I was, to add
that am not only as fully satisfied as to the
utility and efficacy ofyour method of treat
ing catarrh as I was six months ago, but /
em now of the belief that if there Is such a
thing as cure for chronic catarrh, in NV
case substantial cure has been effected.
Yours, respectfully,
FREDERICK 8. JHVKLL.
ALBANY, n. z, Sept. l, 1854.
