DR.. LIGHTHLL-DeaT Sir: Under date
of March IA sent you careful statement
of my case my former treatment, my fall
ure to obtain relief in that direction, my
resort to your treatment and its beneficial
results.
have been, from the winter Of the year
1914, subject to violent periodical attacks
of Gatsrrh, marked by fsbrile symptoms,
violent Inflammation Of the lining men,
branes of the cavities Of the head, sccom-
panied in the first stsges by watery dis
charge from the nose, subsequently, becom-
ing acrid and yellow, and towards the close
of the attack purient and bloody. 1nese
attacks produced most distressing species
of headache, occurring periodically each
day for period varying from one TO three
weeks, sometimes so violent as TO incapac-
itate me for business, and cOnhne me TO
my bed. At times the attendant inhsm-
nation would extend to the teeth, pro-
ducing toothsehe, or to the throat, OCCASION
ing hoarseness and partial loss of voice
and twice within the last few years it has
so affected the right eye as TO eonfne me

had tried medicines and applications
of various kinds; snuffs and other catarrhal
preparations of some half dozen 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 more Of these had
produced any permanent improvement,
and in the few instances in which tempo
rsl relief was afforded, it was at the ex-
pense of so much strength as TO leave me
greatly exhausted. Under these circum.
stances 1 wss led, though with some re-
luctance, from the supposed incursbility of
the disease, to make trial Of your treat
ment. found it soon beyond even my
hopes, reaching the disesse ss it had never
been reached before and slleviatlng its
symptoms to an extent which l had cup
posed impossible. At the time when
gave YOU my former certificate, while did
not feel assured Of complete cure, had
obtained material relief which amply
repaid me for my trial Of you treatment
and which satisfied me that that treatment
was IS effective Us it was simple and philO-
sop5Ical. A substantial escape from my
old attacks OF catarrh, Tor the almost un-
precedente1 period of nearly half year.
snd that in spite of severe attacks Of i'll.
ness, which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, was, to me,
proof of an important success. It is now
six months since 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 a matter of SIM
pie Justice to yourself and TO those who
may be suffering as wss, TO add that l
am not only as fully satisfied as TO the util-
ity and efficacy of ytur treatment of ca
tsrrh SIS was six months sgo, but I am
now Of the belief that if there is such
thing as cure for CuRoEIC OATAKRH, IN
nv case substantial cure has been ef-
fected. FREDERICK s. JEWELL,
