DR.. LIGHTHmL-Dear Sir: Under date
of March IA, 1 sent you careful statement
of my case, my former treatment, my fail
ure 10 obtain relief In that direction, my
resort TO your treatment and its beneficial
results.
I have been, from the winter ofthe year
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks
of catarrh, marked by febrils syptoms, vio-
lent Inflammation of the lining q embrAnes
of the cavities of the head, accompaniedin
the first stages by a wstery discharge from
the nose, subsequently becoming acrid 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 go violent as to i~ncspsciate me
for business, and confne me to my bed. At
times the attendant Inflammation would
extend to the teeth, produce ~toothsche, or
to the throat, occssioning hoarseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice within the
last few years it has so affected the right
eve as tn conine me- for weeks to . dark
ened room
had tried medicines and applications
of various kinds; snuffs and other cstsrrh-
al preparations Of some half q dozen kinds ;
applications to the head of camphor,
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; and in connection with these the
usual emetics and csthsrtics employed to
induce counter action. But none OF these
had produced any permanent improve
ment, and in the few instances in which
temporal relief was afforded, it was at the
expense of so much strength as to leave
me greatly exhausted. Under these cir
cumstapces 1 was led, though with some
reluctance, from the supposed incurSbility
! of the disease to make 8 tIisl of your
treatment. I found it soon beyond even
my hopes, resching the disease as it had
never been reached before, and slleviating
/ its symptoms to an extent which l had
supposed impossible. At the time when I
gave you my former certificate, while I
did not feel assured of q complete cure, 1
had obtained 8 msterialrelief which amply
repaid me for my trial of your treatment
and which satisfied me that that treatment
wss as effective as it was simple and philo.
sophicsL. A substantial escape from my
old attacks of catsrrh, for the almost un-
precedented period of nearly half q year,
and that in spite Of severe attacks of IL
ness, which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, was to me,
proof of an important success. Il is now
six months since I sent you that statement
and while it is unpleasant for me TO appear
thus constantly, and in this guise, before
the public, it seems to me 6 matter Of sim
pie Justice to yourself and to those whs
may be suffering as l was, to add that I
am not only as fully Satisfied as to the util-
ity and efficacy Of your treatment of ca
tsrrh as I was six months ago but I am
now of the belief thAt If there is such q
thing Is q 7 for CHRONIC ONTARRH, in
nv case q substantial cure has been effect
