To the Editor Of the Portland Press - --e ,lsvs
CATARRH, is with US, usually restricted to innam-
nation Of the mucous membrane OF the air passages.
Every disorder of the mucous membrane of the
bronehi has been included under this name.
Both the pituitous and the dry Catarrhs attack the
nasal as well the pulmonary membrane, and, like
the infammatory influenza frequently pass from one
to the other. According to the extent of the MEM
brane affected, they may amount to trivial or very
serious malady; and when they affect extensively the
bronchial membrane, they constitute the disease in
great number OF the cases which are commonly
called asthmatic. --o -.et
The mucous membrane of the air tubes are
more or less affected by morbid inflammation or a
shickening, in every OF Catarrh; hence the
cessty of using such remedies for It's removal and
cure, can be applied to the whole extent of the
parts affected-in the head throat and lungs. 80
Many snuffs and other articles are advertised for
tae cure of this disease, which prepared mostly
BY apo.hecares who know nothing about the pathol-
ogy of the disease. The advertised remedies cannot
applied to the serious results of he disease
in the throat and air passages of the lungs, which
have become affected by breathing air over the poi
sonous disease into and upon them. There is not
one case in thousand, but what is more less af
ctedby the poisonous faint in the breathing organs
which cannot be reached by any other process than
Inhalation.
1t is of the greatest Importance that the proper
remedies should be applied to the throat and air pas
sases of the lungs in every case of Catarrh. To
neglect those organs, you may as well do nothing
but let the disease go and ultimately terminate A
consumption, 1t is sure to do in most cases. If not
properly treated. r
Catarrh occurs in all ages, being found in yonng
children and In old age Those suffering from it are
much more liable to take cold on slight exposure
Catarh often creates perpetual desire to swallow,
and gives feeling, the patient expresses it, "as if
something were sticking in the upper part of the
throat When the Inflammation has existed q long
time, and liberation has taken place. puriform mat
ter il sscretea and drops down into thethroat much
to the discomfort OF the patient. Indeed this Is one
OF the most distressing features Of the complaint as
the matter often desceHds into the stomach in guam
titles, causing nausea and general derangement Of
the health. Many times the sufferer only breathe
with the mouth open. On rising in the morning, a
great effort generally required to clear the head and
extreme upper part the throat There is occasion
ally feeling of great pressure and tightness across
theupper part Of the nose and the base of the brain
sometimes suffers in such way as to induce head
ACHE dizziness and confusion. The sn ell is frequent
iy destroyed, and sometimes the taste The infiam-
nation sometimes goes into the eustachian tubes and
extends UP to the lining membrane to the drum Of
The ear, causing pain or deafness, and sometimes
both; often inflammation and elongation of the uvua.
Catarrh Is disease more durable than Consump-
tion by curing the former prevent the latter.
10 my patients have ever spoken earnestly upon
Che necessity of never neglecng, not for day,
"acod in the head as it Is cal 3D. One attack lays
the foundation Tor another and every additional one
another death seed for that disease which destroys
one Of every fourof grown persons who die in our
country. The better way to cure consumpt on is to
prevent it, and to accomplish that Object the little
and seemingly trifing causes must first be removed.
Isay again and finally, that Catarrh is adangerous
! disease, if suffered to 60 unchecked and uncured.
| My success has been unprecedented in effecting
| cures Of Catarrh and diseases of the Throat and
Lungs, by Cold Medicated Inhalation, (which is very
pleasant, and can be used by children three Year,
old as well as the adult.
am happy to say that can refer to hundreds o
bur first citizens, who have been cured in this city
and State, and in all parts of the United States
Persons at distance can be treated by letter.
