AN OPEN LErTER--iT SPEAKS
FOR ITSELF.

RoCKPoRT, Mass, April 2, 1877.
Mr.. EDITOR:-Having read in your pa.
per reports of the remarkable cures OF ca
tarrh, am induced to tell "what know
and 'inhaling tube" makers (mere dol
lar grabbers) would be glad If they could
emblaZon similar cure In the papers.
For 26 years l suffered with catarrh. The
nasal passages became completely closed.
'.Snuti," ..dust," "ashes," "inhaling-
tubes,I and "sticks" wouldn't WORK,
though at intervals l would sniff up the
so.called catarrh snuff. until l became a
valuable tester for such medicines.
gradually grew worse, and no one can
know how much l suffered or what a
miserable being was. My head ached
over my eyes until l was confined to my
bed Tor many successive days, suffering
the most intense pain. which at one time
lasted continuously for 1853 hours. All
sense OF smell and taste gohe, sight and
hearing impaired, body shrunken
tered and constitution broken, and was
hawking and splitting seveu-eightns ofthe
time. prayed ior death to relieve me OF
my suffering. A favorable notice In your
paper of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy in
duced me to purchase a package and use
1t with DR.. Pierce's Nasal Douche, which
applies the remedy by hydrostatic pres
sure. the only way compatible with COM
mon sense. We'll, Mr. Editor. IL dld 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, used DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to pu-
rify my blood and strengthen my st0m-
ach. 1 also kept my liver active and
bowels regular by the use of his Pleasant
Purgatiye Pellets. If my experience viii
induce other sufferers 10 seek the sane
means oil relief, this letter will have an
swered its purpose.
Yours .ruly, :. ID. hEM tt'e'
