DR.. LIGHTHML-Dear Slr: Under date
of March Ia, L sent yUus Careful statement
of my case, my former treatment, my fail
ure TO obtain relief In that direction, my
resort TO your treatment and It's beneficial
results.
L have been, from the winter ofthe year
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks
Of catsrrh, marked by febrile syptoms, vio-
lent Inflammation of the lining II embfanes
of the cavities Of the head, accompaniment
the first stages by u wstery discharge from
the nose, subsequently becoming scrid and
yellow and towards the close of the attack
purient and bloody. These attacks pro-
duced II most distressing species of head
ache, occurring periodically each day for a
period varying from one to three weeks,
sometimes SO violent rs to incspsciste me
for business, and contine me 10 my bed. AT
times the attendant Inflammation would
extend to the teeth, produce toOthschs, or
to the throst, occasioning hosrseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice within the
last few years 1t has so affected the right
eye rs to cOnfine me for weeks 10 3 dark
ened room.
Ibsd tried medicines and applications
of various kinds; snuffs and otber catsrrh-
al preparations of soma half q dozen kinds;
applications TO the head of camphor,
ginger aud het denomination of 1iGereut
kinds; and in connection with these the
usual emetlcs and cathsrtics 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
cumstaDces l was led, though with some
reluctance, from the supposed incursbility
Of the disesse 70 make q trial of your
treatment. l found it soon beyond even
my hopes, reaching the disease as It hsd
never been resched before, and alternating
its symptoms to an extent which l had
supposed impossible. At the time when L
gave you my former ceTtiicste, while 1
did not feel assured of a complete cure, l
ootsined msterialrelief which amply
repaid me for nay trial of your freshmen,
and which satisfied me that that treatment
Was IS effective as it was simple and philo-
A substantial escape from nv
old attacks Of catarrb, for the almost un-
p~recedenIed period OF nearly half q year,
and that in spite of severe attacks Of III
ness, which would have formerly rendered
such an occurrence inevitable, was, to me,
proof of an important success. 1t 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, II seems to me 8 matter OF SIM
pie justice 10 yourself and TO those whe
may be suffering as I WAS, 70 add that L
Am not only as lully satisfied as to the util-
ty and efficacy Of your treatment of Ca
.srrh as l YVES six months ago, but l an
of the belief that if there is such a
IS q cure tor CHRONIC CATARRH, in
ny case a substantial cure has been effect
