Catarrh
Manifests itself by discharge from the head, va
ryng its nature in different cases, and even in the
thin, colorless, acrd fluid, or gary, starch-like
substance; generally, however, 1t is thick, puru-
yellow or OF deep green tint occasionally streaked
or fleeked with blood So cOpious and offensive is
the discharge in many cases that the patient feels
though his whole head was in state Of corrup-
ton.
Much OF the discharge passes backward into the
throat or collects as tough. viScd phlegm behind
and above the soft palate, in the passage between
| the throat and head, creating a constant and al
most irresistible desire to obtain relief by 'hawk-
ing,n practice characteristic to catarrh and as
embarrassing to the one affected it is disagree
able TO those around OFTEN the phiegm Is 50 tsna
efforts fail to dislodge it until some food or stimu
liant is swallowed
nasel cavities in the shape OF dry, hard crusts,
which In some cases accumulate to such an extent
as to form regular plug, obstructing breathing
ton Is indicative OF liberation, which in time may
destroy the bony structure OF the nose and pro-
duce its subsequent flattening.
The breath Is always tainted, and Is sometimes
so revotingly offensive as to render the sufferer an
object OF disgust to himself as well as to others,
and cases are occasionally met with in which the
stencil Is really OverpOwering and sufficiently
1et1d to poison the atmosphere OF whole room.
Thus person affected with Catarrh lives contin-
ually In an impure atmosphere OF his own sur
rounding, and inhales a poisonous en1uvium with
every breath
In many cases the nose is stopped up sometimes
on one side, sometimes on the other, and often on
both, giving rise to dSagreeable ''stuf1y" sensa-
ton In the head, accompanied by occasional VIC
lent and prolonged parOXySmS OF SneeZing. Again,
distressing feeling OF fullneSS compression is
experienced above or between the eyes, or pain
minlfeStS itself in the face, forehead or temples
or on the top or back OF the head, sometimes OF
severe character that it is taken for neuralgia.
The sense OF smell is generally blunted or entirely
lost, ana taste may become similarly affected.
Inc voice is husky or of nasal character, while
oftentmeS there is continual hoarSenesS, accom-
panied by more or less cough, excessive debility
and emactatton; indeed in some instances the loss
suggest the existence OF tubercular disease and
not few cases OF catarTh that have come under
my notice have been regarded as consumption and
SO treated by unwary or inexperienced pract-
TONERS.

pay nothing for it, Hundreds Of persons in this
