Well Attested Cure Of Catarrh.

DR.. A. P. LIGHTHILL-DEAR SIR Your
the desired effect, and resulted in permanent
good to me, although my case has frequently
beeG pronounced incurable, and had exhaust
ed all other modes of treatment, without the
least benefit. Ny case was so chronic land
Troublesome that by giving few Of the symp-
toms the valRe of your treatment can be more
readily estimated. Fer years had been afiict-
ed with 4 constant cold in the head obstructing
my breathing So as to necessitate me 10 keep my
mouth open during sleep; latterly, the discharges
became solidihed and impacted in my nose to
such an extent that 1t required the greatest eI.
ertion 70 eIpel them. Sometimes these hard
ened humps would get in my throat, causing me
to hawk AID scrape even by the hsur TO relieve
myself. Ny breath was offensive; my memory
became impaired. Dizziness and light head
Ress made their appearance and of late symp
toms Of paralysis stepped in, and when placed
myself under your care one side Of nv face was
sadly affected by this dread disease Ny gen.
eral health suffered alike, there was q constant
tired, drovsy and debilitated feeling, with ne
energy TO move or act felt as tired on rising
In the morning as did on going 70 my bed, NY
appetite was capricisus and nay disposition
morose. In that condition placed myself IN.
der your care, and am happy TO state that all
these dIsagreeable and dangerous symptoms
have entirely left me, and once raOre enjoy the
benefits of good health.
By giving this publicity you will benefit
others similarly affected and oblige me.
Yours truly, JAMES SOMMERYILLE,
BrootriI<, JrFergon county.
