q Dr. LIGHTHILL-Dsar Sir: Under date
lof March IA L sent you careful statement
s;of my case, my former treatment, my fail
sure TO obtain relief in that direction, nv
resort to your treatment ami its beneficial
fresults.
] 1 have been, from the winter Of the year
8 1874, subisct to violent periodical attacks
of Gstsrrh, marked by febrile symptoms,
violent Inflammation of the lining mem
4brsnes of the cavities of the head. sccOm-
spanIed in the first stages by s wstery dis
5chsrge from the nose, subsequently, becom-
Sing scrid and yellow, and towards the close
Z of the attack purient and bloody. These
aattscks produced most distressing species
sof headache, occurring periodically each
sdsy for period varying from one to three
weeks, sometimes SO violent as to inespac-
late ms for business, and cOnfne me to
smy bsd At times the attendant inh4m-
3matlOn would extend 70 the teeth, pro-
adueing toCthsche, or to the throat, OCCASION
fling hOarseness and partial loss of voice
5snd twice within the last few yesrs it has
so affected the right eye as to eonfne me
had tried medicines and applications
of various kinds; snuff and other catarrhal
preparations Of some half dcEsn kinds:
applications to the head of camphor, ginger
and hot fermentation of different kinds;
and in connection with these the usual
emetics and cathartics employed TO induce
counter action. But nor of these had
iprcduced any permanent improvement,
and In the few Instances in which tempo
raj relief was afforded, it was st the ex-
Pense Of So much strength as to lesve me
greatly exhausted. Under these circum-
stances L was led, though with sDms re-
luctsncp, from the supposed incnfsbilily of
the disease, to make trisl Of your treat
ment. l found it Soon beyond even nv
hopes, reaching the disease as it had never
been reached before, and aileyisting its
symptoms TO sn exte1t which I had sup
posed impossible. At the tims when L
gave you my former certificate, while did
not feel assured Of q complete cure I had
obtained q material relief which amply
repaid me for my trial Of you treatment,
and which satisfied me that that Treatment
was SIS effective IS it Was simple and philo-
sophlcsl. A substantial esesps nom nv
AtA lhAEaAArN9 VI NAsdAAA ~ lAc tlzAAOoh ul-
precedentet period Of nearly hat a year,
and that in spite Of severe attacks Of ILL.,
mess, which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, was, TO me,
proof Of sn important success. Il is now
six months since sent you that ssatement
and while it is unp'essan for me 70 appear
thus constantly, and in this guise, before
the public, 1t seems to me matter Of sim
pie justice TO yourself and to those who
may be suffering IS 1 was, to add that
an not only as fully satisfied as 70 ghe util-
ity and efficacy Of }, ur trestment Of c.
ssrrh as was six months ago, but SIN
now Of the belief tbSt if there is such
hing IS cure Tor CHRONIC CATARRH, in
my case substantisl cure has been eff
iected. FREDERICK S. JEWELL,
