This may certify that have been, since 1874,
subject TO violent periodical attacks OF cafarrh,
marked by highly inf1amed condition OF the
lining membranes of the cavities OF the head,
producing most distressing species OF head
ache for days at time, wholly incapacitating
me from business, and during the paroxysms
combining me to the bed. In some instances the
inffamm alton has extended to the tseth, occa-
s.oning too;hache; to the Unrest, producing
hoarseness and partial loss OF voice and and
twice II has so affected the LETT eye as to con-
fine me for month or more to adarkened room.
These attacks have been accompanied by Tong
febrile symptoms by stoppase of the head,
and, in the first stages, by watery' discharges
from the nose, subseq uently becoming acrld
and yellow, and towards the close OF the attack
becoming bloody and puruient. have tried
medicines OF almost every klEd;, external ap-
plications to the head, such as cafnphor, GIN

vinegar; snuffs OF some half a dOzenkinds, and
other catarrhal preparations, together with in
ternal remedies, such as alternatives, cathartics
and eme tics. These have produced no change
in the occurrence or character OF the disease,

relief. had come, at length, 20 believe the
