DR.. LiqsfhiH:
DEAR SIR-Under date of March / cent
you a careinl statement OF my case, its former
treatment, nv failure to obtain relief in that di
r~ection, my resort 20 your treatment aud its ben
efcial results.
have been from the winter of the year le44.
subject to violent periodical attacks of Cztarrb.
marked by strong iebrile symptoms, violent in
~mma of the lining membranes of the cavi
ties of the head, accompanied in the first stage
BY a watery discharge from the nose. subsequer'
ly becoming acrid and yellow, and towardt.
close OF the attack. purulent and bloody. These
attacks produced a most distressing species of
headache, occurring periodically each day for q
period varying from one TO three weeks, some
times so violent as to incapacitate me for bust
ness and at times confne me to nv bed. Al
times the attendant inflammation would extend
TO the teeth producing toothache; or TO the throat,
occasioning hoarseness and partial. loss of voice:
and twice within the last few years il has so al
fected the left eve a. to confne me for weeks to
a darkened room.
had tried medicines aud applications OF vari-
Gus kinds. snuffs and other catarrhal prepare
lions of some half a dozen kinds; applications TO
the head OF camphor. ginger, and hot fomenta
tons of different kinds; and in connection with
these the usual emetics or cathartics employed 70
induce counter action. But none Of these had
produced any permanent improvement, and in the
few instances in which temporal relief was az
forded il was at the expense of so much strength
as TO leave me greatly exhausted. Under these
circumstances | was led. though with reluctance,
from the supposed incurability Of the disease. To
make a trial of your treatment. / found it soon
beyond even my hopes. reaching the disease as
il had never been reached before. and alternating
It's symptoms 10 an extent which ! had supposed
impossible. AT the time | gave you nv former
certificate, while | did not feel assured of a com
plete cure, | bad obtained a material relief which
nearly repaid me for nv trial of your treatment.
and which satisfied me that that treatment was
as effective as il was simple and philosophical. A
substantial escape from my old attacks Of catarrh
for the unprecedented period Of nearly half a
year, and that in spite of severe occurrences OF
illness which would have formerly rendered such
an attack inevitable. was. TO me, proof Of an im-
portant success IL il now six months since |
sent you that statement. and. white il il ~unpleas-
ant 10 me to appear thus constantly. and in this
guIse. before the public. IL seems 10 me a matter
OF simple justice TO yourself. and 10 those who
may be suffering a. ! was, 10 add that / AN not
only as fully satisfied as TO the utility snd effca-
CIV of your method Of treating catarrh as ] was
six months ago: but / am now OF the belief that
if there is such a thing a. a cure for chror ic ca
tarrh. in INV case a substantial cure has been
effected. Yours, respectfully.
