DR- LIGHTHML-DeGr Sir: Under date
of March IA, L sent you 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.
l have been, from the winter ofthe year
1874, subject to violent periodical attacks
of catsrrh, marked by febrils syptoms, vio-
lent Inflammation of the lining n embrsnes
of the cavities of the head, accompaniment
the first stages by q watery discharge from
the nose, subsequently, becoming scrid and
yellow and towards the close of the attack
pnrient and bloody. These attacks pro-
ducsd s most distressing species of head
ache occurring periodically each day for q
period varying from one to three weeks,
sometimes 30 violent as to incspaciate me
for business, and confne me TO my bed. At
| times the attendant Inflammation would
extend TO the teeth, produce toOthache, or
TO the throat, Occssioning hosrseness and
partial loss of voice; and twice within the
last few years it has so affected the right
eve as to conhne me for weeks to 8 dark
ened room. .
Ihsd tried medicines and applications
of various kinds snutfs and other cstarrh-
al preparations of some half 8 dozen kinds !;
applications TO the head of csmphor,
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; and in connection with these the
usual emetics and cathsrtics employed to
induce counter action. Bat none of these
had produced any permanent improve

temporal relief was afforded, it was at the
expense of 80 much strength as to leave
me greatly exhausted. Under these cir
cumstsDces I wss led, though with some
reluctance, from the supposed incursbility
of the disease, to make q trial of your
treatment. / found it soon beyond even
my hopes, reaching the disease as It had
never been reached before, and ~slleviating
its symptoms to an extent which ] had
supposed impossible. At the time when I
I gave you my former certificate, while I
did not feel assured of q complete cure, I
had obtained q materialrelief which amply
! repaid me for nay trial of your treatment
and which satisfied me that that treatment
was,as effective IS it was simple and philo-
sophical. A substantial escape from my
old attacks of catArrh, for the almost I'M
preeedented period of nearly half a year,
and 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 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 a matter Of SIM
pie Justice TO yourself and to those whe
may be suffering as 1 was, to add that
am not only IS fully satisfied as to the util-
ity and efficacy of your treatment of ca
tsrrh rs l was six months ago, but l am
now Of the belief hat if there is such q
thing as a cure for CHRONIC CATARRH, in
nv case 8 substantial cure has been effect
