DR.. LiqkGiH: -...-
DEAR SIR Under date of March 18th I
sent you a careful statement of my case,
my former treatment, my failure to obtain
relief in that direction, myTesort to your
treatment and its beneficial result.
l have been, since tho 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 most distressing species
of headache occurring periodically each
day for period varying from one to three
weeks sometimes SO violent as to wholly
incapacitste me for business, and coufue
me to bed. At times the attendant infiam-
nation would extend to the teeth, oc-
casioning tOothache, or to the throat,
producing hoarseness and partial loss Of
voice; and twice within the last few years
it has so affected tho left eye as to confine
me for weeks to a darkened room.
l had tried medicines and applications of
various kinds; snUtts and other catarrhal
preparations of some half dozen kinds ;
applications to the head of camphor, gin,
ger and hot lamentations 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
N the few instances in which temporal re-
lief was afforded it was at the expense of
80 much strength as to leave me greatly ex-
hausted. Under these circumstances was
led, though with reluctance, from the SUD
posed incurability of the disease, to make
a trial of your treatment. | found it soon
even beyond my hopes, reaching the dis
ease as it has never been reached before,
and alleviatmg its symptoms to an extent
which | had supposed impossible. At the
time gave you my former certificate,
while did not feel assured of a complete
cure, l had obtained a material re-
lief which amply repaid me for my
trial of your treatment, and which salts
fed me at that treatment was as effective
as it was simple and philosophical. Asub-
stantial escape from my old attacks OF ca
tarrh, for the unprecedented period of near
ly half year, and that in spite of severe
occurrences of illness which would have
formerly rendered such an attack newt
able, was to me, proof of an important sue
cess. 1t is now six months since l sent you
that statement, and, while it is unpleasant
to me to appear thus constantly, and in
this guise, before the public, it seems to me
q matter of simple justice to yourself, and
tothose who may be suffering as was, to add
that am not only as fully satisfied as to the
utility and efficacy ofyOur method of treat.
ing catarrh as l was six months ago, but l
am now of the belief that if there is such 2
thing as a cure for chronic catarrh, in nv
case a substantial cure has been effected.
Yours, respectfully,
FREDERICK s. JEWELL.
