A VOLUNTARY TESTIMONIAL.
A Chronic Sufferer from Catarrh Tells
Of His Relief.

ROANOKE, VA, Feb. 10, 90.
Having been a victim of
nasal catarrh for some years
and having tried remedy after
remedy with little, if any, ben
eft, week ago I placed my
self in the hands of DR.. Coates,
the specialist, on Campbell
street, at which time I was
suffering from some of its most
distressing symptoms. Feeling
SO decided an improvement in
so short a time, I deem but
right in justice to DR.. Coates
that l should let others who
suffer know that it will be
greatly to their benefit to con-
suit DIR. Coates, especially so
should they have been treating
themselves, as the results be-
tween doctering oneself and
having one who has special ap-
planes at hand to get at the
root .of the disease and who
has made a study of its forms
and symptoms, is so marked
that it would be doing an III
justice to ones health to neg
lect the opportunity thus
afforded Of consulting with DR..
