An OPEN lETTER---lT SPEAKS
FOR ITSELF.

ROCKPORT, Mass, April 2, 1877.
Mr.. EDIrOR:-Having read in your pa.
tarrh, 1 am induced to tell "what know
about catarrh." and l fancy the "snuff |"
and "inhaling tube" makers (mere dol
lar gra bers) would be glad If they could
em6iazon similar cure II the papers.
For 70 years 1 suffered with catarrh. The
nasal passages became completely closed.
"Suuti,u dust" "ashes," "inhaiing-
tubes" and "sticks" wouldn't work,
though at intervals 1 would sniff up the
so.called catarrh snuff, until l became a
valuable tester for such medicines. l
gradually grew worse, and no one can
know how much l suffered or what a
miserable being l was. My head ached
over my eyes until was confined TO my
bed ior many successive days. suffering
the most intense pain. which at one time
lasted continuously for l6S hours. All
sense OF smell and taste goIe. sight and
hearing impaired, body shrunken
and weakened nervous system snat-
tered and constitution broken, and was
hawking and splitting seven-eighths of the
time. lprayed 1or death to relieve me OF
my suffering. A favorable notice in your
paper OF DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy in
duced me to purchase package and use
IL with DIR. Pierce's Nasal Douche. which
applies the remedy by hydrostat1c pres
sure, the only way compatible with com
mon sense. Well, Mr.. Editor, 1t did not
cure me in three iourths of a second, nor
| In one hour or month, but in less than
| eight minutes l was relieved, ana IN
| three months entirely cured. and have
| remained SO over sixteen months. While
using the Catarrh remedy, l used Dr.
rierce's Golden Medical Discovery to pu-
riiy my blood and strengthen my stom.
ach. 1 also kept my liver active and
bowels regular by the use of his Pleasant
| Purgative Pellets. If my experience Will
| induce other sufferers 10 seek the same
means oil relief. this letter Will have an
swered its purpose.
