AN OPEN LETTER---lT SPEAKS
FOR ITSELF.

RoCKPoRT, Mass, April 2, 1871.
MIR. EDIruk:-h read IN your pa
per reports of the remarkable cures OF ca
tarrh, / am induced to tell "what know
about catarrh, )" and l fancy the 'snuh"
and "inhaling tube" makers (mere dol
lar gra bbers) would be glad If they could
emDlazon q similar cure in the papers.
For ~ years / suffered with catarrh. The
nasal passages became completely closed.
"Suuti,u dust" "ashes," "inhaling-
tubes" and "sticks" wouldn't work,
though at intervals | would sniff up the
so.called catarrh snuff, until 1 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 for many successive days, suffering
the most intense pain, which at one time
lasted continuously for l6S hours. All
sense OF smell and taste gone, sight and
hearing impaired, body shrunken
and weakened nervous system shat
tered and constitution broken, and i was
hawking and splitting seven-eighths ofthe
time. prayed for death to relieve me OF
my suffering. n favorable notice in your
paper OF DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy in
duced me to purchase a package ana use
it 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-iourths 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 sixteen months. While
using the Catarrh remedy, l used DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to pu-
rity 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, ). D. REMlCk.
