CATARRH
AND ITS EFFECT UPON
THE SYSTEM.

Catarrh consists Of Inflammation beginning
behind and little above the veil OF the palate,
and extending upward into the nose and ar
cavities Of the face. 1t creates perpetual no
sire TO swallow. and causes feeling as II some
thing was sticking in the upper ana PACK part
of the throat AS the disease becomes chronic,
the matter copcretes into hardened Jumps, tDe
matter secreted becomes puriform, the breath
Is offensive, and the voice assumes nasai t"ahg
while on rising in the morning, great enort Is
required to clear the head ana throat mere 10
often a feeling Of pressure across the lever part
of the forehead, causing headache, dizziness
and confusion of thought and less of memory.
The sense of smell becomes impaired the
ewes are weak, and, as the Inflammation EXTENDS
mn the eustaceian tubes into the internal ear
there is partial deafness, Win thrOpolpg, nun
ming or ringing noise in the ear. In sleep, the
Catarrhal matter is unconsciously swallowed,
which in time, deranges the stomach and i'm
pairs digestion causing dyspepsia and multi
plicity of discordant symptoms which are OFTEN
mistaken for other diseases. To the foregoing
add the fact that every breath of air drawn lHto
the lungs is drawn over this diseased surface,
fostering with Catarrhal matter, and who can
DENY the assertion that to neglect Catarrh IS 10
nuite Consumption. go
Consumption is the oRe prevailing disease, at
the present day. with which the young and
middleaged die. And yet very seldom do the
lungs receive the primary shock. 1t Is trst q
cold in the head" which resolves into chrome
Catarrh, from which the subject feels no alarm
until step by step, it reaches the lungs, when
all attempts at cure are little better than blind
experiments. I,o,+ and rsa
fulness there are hundreds all around US uyEg
in the morning of life, of Consumption, VINO can
look back six months year, or longer, as the
case NAV BE, to a time when it was nothing but
catarrhh Neglected at a time when properly
treated cure was possible, silently and almost
imperceptibly it has transformed the bright
rnddy features of youth into the dull wan list
lessness of premature age, as it has drank up
the vitality from the blood and fluids of the
wasted frame, and now, when hope is dead, and
the life forces one by one are ebbing away, the
mind turns mournfully backward to what
might have BEEN" and tremblngly forward to
what soon must be.

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGLECT

Those who indorse tho stupid assertion that
"Catarrh will get we'll of itself" or is durable
by snuffing or inhaling the nostrums in common
use, will do well to remember that the local dis
ease depends always upon a Preventative condt-
ton Of the blood.
Medical writers are wont to speak Of Catarrh
as simple local Inflammation, and both its i'm.
portance and rational treatment are either
wholly ignored, or receive but passing notice
from the general practitioner; and thus Catarrh
as surely predisposes to Consumption as does
the day precede the night, and is in fact the
prelude to that disease in eight cases out of ten.
The disease is everywhere prevalent; people
resort to such means "a always fail then give
heed to the popular fallaCy that it is nCuTable,
and settle into n sort of mental apathy, encOur.
aged by the belief that the family physician
knows all that is known on the subject and
thus matters stand, while the disease progresses
until hope is dead, and life becomes a nOCkeTy,
when comes the stereotyped and hackneyed adj.
vice of "a visit to the country" "a change OF
climate" "a sea voyage" "a return of health
| in the spring" etc; but, alas the country re-
| ferred to is that which lies beyond the confines
of the fostering grave, and the spring is that
season which blooms eternal when lifes titful
! fever is over.
Let those who doubt this portrayal of Catarrh
question the poor cORsumptive, whose sun of
life is going down at noon, or watch its progress
upon those woo neglect its timely and iudiciOus
treatment A little while and we miss their
coming; youth and health have faded from lips
and cheek, the light from the eye has Como out,
the hands are folded peacefully over the still
heart-they are gone.

LONDON, February 16.-Th0 formal
opening of the new Parliament took
Mace this afternoon. The members Of
the House of Commons were summoned
to attend at the bar of the Chamber of
Peers to hear the royal speech. The
Queen was not present, but her Males
tvs speech was delivered by the Royal
Commissioner and read to the assem-
bled House by the Lord Chancellor.
The speech is il substance as follows
The Queen assures the Lords and
Commons that the relations of Great
Britain with oil foreign powers are at
present on an excellent footing. The
hostilities which threatened to break
I out in the East have been prevented by
the Conference of the Great Powers, al
Paris. The hope is expressed that ne
gotiations with the United States
will place on a firm and durable basis
the friendship which should ever exist
between England and America. The
disturbances in the colony of New Zeal
and are to regretted, but the Queen Is
sure that prudence and moderation OIL
the part of the government will pre-
vent the recurrence of such unhappy
events. The estimates which will be
laid before the Commons by Her Males
tvs minister, are framed on the basis OF
economy coupled with efficiency Ill the
administration of the service. Contin-
ued suppression of the operation OF the
writ of habeas corpus in Ireland is re-
ported as unnecessary. The ecclesiasti-
cal arrangements for Ireland are to be
considered by Parliament. The legisla-
ton for their final adjustment will make
large demands upon the wisdom of both
houses on the subject.
The Queen concludes as follows:
am persuaded that careful regard will
be had to the interests involved and to
the welfare ofreligion, and that through
the application of the principles of equal
justice to the questions before them,
Parliament will secure the undivided
feeling of the people of ireland on the
side of loyalty and law, efface the mem
DRY of the past collision and cherish the
sympathies of au affectionate people.
