DR. LlGHTHmL-DeaT Str: Under date
of March IA, L sent you a careful statement
of my case, my former treatment, my fail
ure to obtain relief IN that direction, nv
resort TO your treatment and It's beneficial
results. A-
Ihave been, from the winter of the year
1874, subjsct to violent periodical attacks
of catsrrh, marked by febrile sypLoms, vio-
lent Inflammation of the lining a embranes
of the cavities of the head, accompaniment
the first stages by a wstery discharge from
the nose, subsequently becoming acfid and
yellow and towards the close of the attack
purient and bloody. These attacks pro-
duced 8 most distressing species of head
ache, occurring periodically each day for q
period varying from one TO three weeks,
sometimes 30 violent as to incspaciste me
tor business, and confne me to my bed. AT
times the attendant Inflammation would
extend to the teeth, produce toothache, or
to the throat, occssioning hOarseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice within the
last few years it has go affected the right
eye as to coIfne me Tor weeks TO q dark
ened room.
had tried medicines and applications
of various kinds snuffs and other eatarrh-
al preparations Of soIne half q dozen kinds;
applications to the head of camphor,
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; and In connection with these the
usual emeties and cathartics employed to
induce counter action. Bat none OF these

temp JrAl relief was afforded, it was at the
expense of so much strength as to leave
me greatly exhausted. Under these cir
cumstsDces l was led, though with some
reluctance, from the supposed incurability
of the disease, to make q trial of your
treatment. l found it soon beyond even
my hopes, reaching the disease as it had
never been reached before, and s~llevisting
its symptoms to al extent which 1 had
supposed impossible. At the time when l
gave you my former certificate, while 1
did not feel assured of a complete cure, 1
had obtained materialrelief which amply
repaid me for nay trial of your treatment,
and which satisfied me that that treatment
WIS IS effective IS it was simple and philo.
sophical. A substantial escape from nv
old attacks of cstarrh, fer the almost un-
~precedented period of nearly half q year,
and that in spite of severe attacks Of Ill
which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, was, to me,
proof Of IN important success. 1t is now
six months since l sent you that statement
and willie it Is unpleasant for me to appear
thus constantly, and in this guise, before
public, 1t seems 10 me q matter of sim
pie Justice TO yourself and 10 those who
may be suffering as I WAS, to add that 1
am not only as July satisfied as to the util-
and efficacy Of your treatment of ca
tarrh as l was six months ago, but 1 am
now of the belief that if there ia such a
thing as q cure for CHRONIC CATARBH, in
my case q substantial cure has been effect
