AN OPEN LErTER--lT SPEAKS
FOR ITSELF.

RoCKPORT, Mass, April 2, 1871.
Mr.. EDIrOR:-Having read in your pa.
per reports of the remarkable cures OF Ca
tarrh, 1 am induced to tell "what know
about catarrh," and l fancy the "snuff"
and 'inhaling tuben makers (mere dol
lar grabbers) would be glad if they could
emblazon similar cure in the papers.
For 20 years suffered with catarrh. The
nasal passages became completely closed.
''Snufi," dust" "ashes," "inhaling-
tubes" and '.sticks" wouldn't work,
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
miserable being l was. My head ached
over my eyes until was confined TO my
bed for many successive days, suffering
the most intense pain, which at one time
lasted continuously for 1853 hours. All
hearing impaired, body shrunken
and weakened nervous system shat
tered and constitution broken, and was
hawking and splitting seven-eighths ofthe
time. l prayed for 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
1t vii DR.. Pierce's Nasal Douche, which
applies the remedy by hydrostatic pres
sure. the only way compatible with COM
mon sense. Well, Mr.. Editor, 1t did not
cure me in three-lourths of second, nor
IN one hour or month, but in less than
tl2nL mlnuttS L WAS IcllcNtuy anu III
three months entirely cured, and have
remained SO over sixteen months. While
using the Catarrh remedy, l used DR..
Pierce,s Golden Medical Discovery to pu-
rify my blood and strengthen my stom-
ach. 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 OF relief, This letter will have an
swered its purpose.
Yours ,ruly, s. ID. REMICk.
