From REV. FRED. 8. JEWELL, PROFESSOR OF
STATE NoRHAL SCHOOL, albany, Ny.
This may certify that I have been, since
1874, subject to periodical attacks of ca
ta7rah, marked by highly inhamed con-
dition Of the lining membranes of the cav
tiles OF the head, producing most distress
sing species Of headache for days at a time,
wholly incapacitating me for business, and
during the paroxysms confning me to bed.
In some instances the inflammation has ex-
tended to the teeth, occasioning toothache,
to the throat, producing hoarseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice it has SO
effected the left eye as to confne me for q
month or more to darkened room. These
attacks have been accompanied by strong
febrile symptoms; by stOppage of the head,
and, in the first stages, by watery discharg-
es from the nose, subsequently becoming
acrid and yellow, and towards the close OF
the attack becoming bloody and purulent.
Ihave tried medicines of almost every kind:
external applications TO the head such as
champion, ginger, hot bandages, and 70
mentations of not vinegar snuffs of some
half Il dozen kinds, and other eatarrahIa
preparations, together with internal rene
dies, such as alternatives, cathartics, and
cosmetics. These have produced no change
in the occurrence of character of the di-
sease, and in most cases, with little or no
temporary relief, had come, at length to
believe the disease to be practically be-
yond either cure or material alienation.
Under these circumstances I was led
some i've months ago, to make trial of DR..
LighthllIs treatment. His method at on,.l
approved itself to my judgment as siT.,ble
philosophical, and likely to be effestivs :.
Notwithstanding the DISADVANTAGE nnda,
