CATARRH.

Catarrh is often regarded by the patient as
cold in the head, and he often expresses his
astonishmept at his remarkable tendency to
contract fresh cold Indeed he declares he
is scarcely free from one cold before he takes
another; and he is always exceedingly care
full. 1t is also matter of surprise to MIN that
the cold always seems to settle in the head and
the throat
At times many of the symptoms of catarrh
may seem to abate and the patient is led to
hope that the disease is about to wear off; but
another class of symphonic soon appear, and
he learns to his horror that instead of recov-
cry from the disease II is what changed
in Its character, and has extended to the throat
A sense OF Wearinesg is sometimes felt in read
ing, speaking or singing, hoarseness at times
occurs, sensation OF dryness is sometimes
lelt in the throat, or it appears that some
foreign substance, rs, for instance q hair, OBJ
structed the throat; there becomes a sense of
languof and fatigue, the breath lessons upon
| little eXertion, short, hacking cough,
peculiar sound in clearing the throat, a feeling
| AS though there was not room enough in the
| chest to breathe; these and other symp-
toms occnr after the disease has made con-
consumption is about to begin its dreadful
work. Up % this point the progress of the dis
| ease may have been slow, and the patient may,
| in expressing his confident hope that it will
''wesr off," declare that he has mad the catarrh
| for years, and has not seemed to become much
worse. and trusts he will "by and by" recover.
But his delusion is the grand,error which has
peopled our cemeteries with consumptive
form, as all forms of catarrh end finally in
consumption.
| The great danger however because the most
common, is that it will extend downward and
affect the lungs In most cases of pulmonary
disease catarrh is present to some degree and
In many instances it causes a large share of the
patients discomfort.
Besides these grave consequences, all of
which are liable TO spring from scrofulous
catarrh of oZoens, there are others which, if
less dangerous, are sufficiently unpleasant.
| 1t occasions great unhappiness to thousands
of both sexes by isolatiDg them and prevent.
ing their settlement in life. An offensive run.
ming from the nose, with foul breath is about
as great calamity as can befall young people.
Every disease of this kind can be cured by our
new system of practice.
| have seen so many of these cases cured
| that do not consider any case hopeless un
less both lungs are seriously involved. Even
then the Compound Oxygen and other inhaa
tions aid us in dissolving the mucus and in
contracting and healing the cavities, which
nothing can do with the same success
The very best reference from those already
cured.
