DR. LIaHTHILL-DeGr Sir: Under date
of March IA, I sent you g careful statement
of my case, my former treatment, my fail
ure to obtain relief IN that direction, my
resort 10 your treatment and its beneficial
results.
1 have been, from the winter Of the year
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks
Of catarrh, marked by febrile syptoms, VIC
lent Inflammation of the lining n embrAnes
Of the cavities of the head, accompaniedin
the frst stages by 3 watery discharge from
the nose, subsequently becoming scrid and
yellow and towards the close of the attack
purient and bloody. These attacks pro-
duced q most distressing species of head
ache, occurring periodically each day for q
period varying from one to three weeks,
Sometimes 30 violent e. to ~incapaciate me
for business, and confne me to my bed. At
times the attendant Inflammation would
extend to the teeth, produce toothache, or
TO the throat Occasioning hearseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice within the
last few years it has so affected the right
eye IS to conhne me for weeks to dark
ened room.
had tried medicines and applications
Of various kinds snuffs aud other catarrh-
al preparations of some half q dozen kinds
applications to the head Of camphor,
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; snd in connection with these the
usual emetics and cathartics employed to
induce counter action. But none of these
had produced any permanent improve

temporal relief was afforded, it was st the
expense Of 30 much strength a. to leave
greatly exhausted. Under these cir
eumstaDces 1 was led, though with some
reluctance, from the supposed ~incursbility
of the disease to make q trial Of your
treatment. I found it soon beyond even
my hopes, reaching the disease IS It hsd
never been reached before and ~alleVisting
its symptoms TO IN extent which I had
supposed impossible. At the time when l |
gave you my former certificate, while l
not feel assured Of q complete CURE, l
had obtained 8 material relief which amply
repaid me for my trial of YOU treatment
and which satisfied me that that treatment
was IS effective as it was simple and philo.
A substantial escape from nv
old attacks of catarrh, for the almost un.
.precedented period of nearly half a year
and that in spite Of severe attacks Of i'll
ness, which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, Was, to me-
proof Of 3 important SUCCESS. It is now
TX months since 1 sent you that statement
md while it is unpleasant for m to appear
.hus constantly, and in this guise, before
he public, it seems to me Q matter of SIM
de justice to yourself and to those whe
nay be suffering IS I was, to add that l
m not only as fully satisfied as to the util-
ty and efficacy Of your treatment Of ca
srrh as 1 was six months ago, but I am
low of the belief that if there is such a
hing as q cure for CHRONIC CATkRRH, in
ny case 8 substantial cure has BEN effect
