DE-. LleHTHLL-Dsar Sir: Under date
Of March IA, L sent you D careful statement
of my case, my former treatment, my fail
ure to obtain relief IN that direction, my
resort TO your treatment and its beneficial
results.
1 have been, from TIE winter ofthe year
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks
Of catsrrh, marked by febrile syptoms, viO-
lent Inflammation of the lining a embrsnes
of the cavities of the head, accompanied in
the first 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 a most distressing species of head
ache, occurring periodically each day for q
period varying from one to three weeks,
sometimes so violent as to incspsciste me
for business, and coD1ne me to NY bed. At
timesthe attendant Inflammation would
extend TO the teeth, produce toothsche, or
to the throat occAsionibg h~osrseness and
partial loss Of vOicey and twice within the
LAST few years it has so affected the right
eye rs to conhne ms for weeks to q dark
chou EOvmI.
Ihad tried medicines and applications
of various kinds; snufs and other catarrh-
al preparations Of some hall q dozen kinds
applications to the head of csmphor,
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; and in connection with these the
usual emetics and csthsrtics employed to
inGuce ounter action. Bat none OF these
hAd produced any permanent improve
ment, and in the few instances in which
temp Jral relief was afforded, it was at the
expense of so much strength as to leave
me greatly exhausted. Under these cir
cum,tsDces L was led, though with come
reluctance, from the supposed incurability
Of the disease, TO make q trial of your
treatment. 1 found it soon beyond even
my hopes, reaching the disease IS il had
never been reached before, and sllevisting
its symptoms TO an extent which l had
supposed impossible. at the time when l
gave you my former certificate, while l
did not feel assured of q complete cure, I
had obtained a materislrelief which amply
repaid me for my trial of your treatment,
aud which satisfied me that that treatment
wss IS effective as it was simple and pbilo.
sophical. A substantial escape from my
old attacks of cstsrrh, for the almost I'M
~precedenLed period Of nearly half a year,
and that in spite-of severe attacks Of i'll
ness, which would have formerly rendered
such an Occurrences inevItable, was, to me,
proof of an important success. Il is now
SIX months since l sent you that statement
and wi lie it is unpleasant for me to appear
thus constsntlyi and in this guise, before
the public, 1t seems tome 8 matter OF SIM
pie justice to yourself Ano to those VINE
may be suffering IS I was, to add that 1
am not only SIS July satisfied as to the util-
ity and efficacy of your treatment of Ca
tsrrh as l was six months age, but I am
now of the belief that if there is such q
thing as q curt for CHRONIC CATARRH, in
my case q substantial cure has been effect
