Throat and Lung Institute

At Detroit, Michigan.-
Our California Office is personally conducted
BY Dr. Williams, and is permanently
established for the cure OF
All diseases of the Head, Throat and Chest
viz: Catarrh, Throat Diseases, Asthma
Bronchitis, Consumption, Catarrhal Deaf
ness, Catarrhal Opthalmia and Diseases Of
the Heart by his new and improved system
of Medicated Limitations, which carry the
remedies directly to the diseased parts
thereby effecting cures In many OF the so,
called incurable cases, the greater part OF
whom had not the slightest idea OF ever be
ing cured.
OZ0ENA.-Oznna Is the professional or
technical name given to an advanced form
of catarrh in which liberation has eaten
through the membrane lining OF the nose to
the cartilege OF the bone. Any case OF ca
quently occurs in those who are naturally
scrofulous. The discharge takes place
through the nostrils or through the throat.
and Is generally Of a yellowish or greenish
yellow color, frequently tinged with blood
and almost always attended by an offensive
smell. In the language OF DIR. Wood. of Phil
adelphia, the disease Is one of the most OBJ
durate and disagreeable which the physi-
clan has to encounser. In bad eases the
breath of the patient becomes so revolving as
TO isolate him from society, and to render
him an object OF disgust even to himself"
In some instances pieces of bone become
separated and slough off, leaving deep, un-
healthy ulcers, which seerete blood mat
ter and are extremely difficult to heal
After Ozpna has continued some time the
sense OF smell usually becomesi simpaired and
often lost.
Deafness Is one Of its most common con-
sequences, and results from Its extension
through the eustachian tubes TO the internal
ear.
Pains in the head and over the frontal sim
uses. impairing memory, and even insanity
frequently spring from its extension to the
brain.
The greatest danger. however, because the
most common, is that II will extend down
ward and affect the lungs. In most cases Of
pulmonary disease catarrh Is present in
some degree, and in many instances IL
causes large share of the patients discom-
fort.
Besides these grave consequences, all of
which are liable to spring from scrofulous
catarrh or Ozoena, there are others which, If
less dangerous, are sufficiently unpleasant.

She resisted vigorously, and both
