BOSTON DRUGGIST.

Gentlemen, =, hereby certify that have had Ca
tarih for ten years. and Tor the last six have
been terrible sufferer. | was rendered partially
deaf, had bnZzng in the head pains across the
len ana ucerated tonsils, hard and constant cough
sever pam across the chest, and every indication
of consumption. My head ached all the time. The
matter accumulated so rapidly IN my head and
throat that could not keep them tree Frequently
at night would spring out OF bed II seemed TO me
at tue point of sufocatlon. | would then have re.
course to every means in my power to dislOdge the
mucus from my throat and head before being able
to sleep again. For period OF six years my ton.
sils were liberated and so much infamed that
could with difficulty swallow. finally consulted
an eminent surgeon in regard to an operation on
them, but at his request postponed 1t. The con-
stant Inflammation and liberation in my throat
caused by the poisonous ma ter dropping down
from my head had SO irri ated aud inil tmed my
lungs that | coughed incessanily,-a deep, hard
cough. Meanwhile my system began 70 show the
effects oi this disease SO tDat lost flesh, grew pale
and showed every symptom OF an early death by
coheumplon' Wheh matters had reached this
stage, or about six months ago, began the use Of
Sanlords Radical Cure for Catarrh. Alter usisg
the first bottle began to improve rapidly. The
first dose seemed 10 clear my head as / had not
known it to be for years. II seemed gradually to
arrest the discharges. IL stopped my cough in
three days. BY using it as gargle soon re uced
the Inflammation aud swelling OF my tonsiis SO
that they soon ceased to trouble me. The soreness
acl oss my chest disappeared, the buzzing noises
seeing were completely re. .tored, ana every symp-
tom Of disease that had reduced me to tae verge OF
the grave disappeared by the use Of Sanicrds Raj
lcal Cure Tor Caarrh.

practced by the best physicians, and have con
suited the most eminent about my case. have
used every kind OF remedy and apparatus that
have appeared during a period of six years past,
and have, while following their use, taken great
care ofmy general health but obtained no relief or
encouragement from anv ofthem.
Since curing myself with Saniord's Radical Cure.
have recommended it in over one hundred cases
without single case of failure, and have in mum
