An OPEN LETTER--IT SPEAKS
FOR ITSELF.

RoCKPoRT, Mass, April 2, 1877.
MIR. demonstrating read III your pa.
per reports of the remarkable cures OF ca
tarrh. / am induced to tell "what know
about catarrh," ;" and L fancy the "snutf"
and sin haling tube" makers (mere dol
lar grabbers) would be glad if they could
emblazon a similar cure in the papers.
For rs years | suffered with catarrh. The
nasal passages became completely y closed.
"Snufi,n dust" "ashes," "inhaling-
tubes" and "sticks" wouldn't work,
though at intervals l would sniff up the
sO.cailed catarrh snuff. until i became a
valuable tester Tor such medicines. l
gradually grew worse, and no one can
know how much l suffered or what u
IN lserable being 1 was. My head ached
over my eyes until was confined to my
bed Tor many successive days, suffering
the most intense pain, which at one time
lasted continuously for l63 hours. All
sense OF smell anu taste gone, sight and
hearing impaired, body shrunken
anu weakened nervous system snat
tered and constitution broken, and was
hawking and splitting seven-eightns oftbe
time. l prayed ior death to relieve me of
my suffering. A favorable notice in your
paper OF DR.. Sage'S Catarrh Remedy in
duced me to purchase a package and use
IL with DIR. Pierce's Nasal Douche, which
applies the remedy by hydrostatic pres
sure, the only way compatible with COM
mon sense. Well, Mr.. Editor, IL did not
cure me in three-lourths OF second, nor
in one hour or month, but in less than
eight minutes L was relieved, and In
three months entirely cured, and have
remained so over slZteen months. While
using the Catarrh remedy, i used DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery 10 pu
riiy my blood and strengthen my stom-
ach. I also kept my liver active and
bowels regular by the use of his Pleasant
Purgative Pellets. II my experience Will
induce other sufferers 10 seek the same
means ol relief, this letter Will have an
swered its purpose.
Yours ruly, s. d. HEMlCk.
