CHRONIC AND ACUTE CATARRH,
Selection From Lecture by DR.. S. B. Hart
man Delivered at the Surgical Ho-
tel, Columbus, Ohio.
Reported for the Press.

The first stage of catarrh of the nose
and head Frontal sinuses) produces
discharge from the nose, sneezing,
pain in the eyes and forehead, weak,
sometimes watery eyes, and Occas-
ionally loss of memory. If the catarrh
is principally in the throat it produces
a raw feeling, making swallowing
painful, and the tonsils become in
famed at the slightest touch. The
mucous membrane of the throat is
thickened. red and frequently ulcer
ated. Hawking with difficulty stringy
mucous out of the throat, gagging and
splitting, are symptoms more or less
constant, according to the severity of
the case.
in the last stage the thickened and
swollen membrane become thin and
shiny and the sputa thick and of a
very offensive odor. AS soon as tn 9
dreadful di tease reaches the larnyx
hOarseness and weakness of voice
manif, st themselves Unless some-
thing is done TO prevent, the catarrh
will follow the mucous membrane
into the lungs, where it will be fol-
lowed by cough, night sweats, rapid
loss of flesh, and the other dread
symptoms of consumption, or the Ca
tarrh may pass through the oesopha-
gus to the stomach and produce dys-
pepsia, with all its attendant horrors.
In my extensive practice Of medicine
[ have treated vast number of Gaze
OF catarrh in all stages of its progress,
from its first appearance as common
cold to the last stage of consumption.
Pe-ru-na is applicable to catarrh OF
any mucous surface of the body and in
all stages. From the slightest Ca
tarrhal attack, or cold, to the most
chronic and pronounced case of the
hypertrophic form, Peru ma is spe'
cific. Its operation is, primarily, on
the mucous surfaces, by giving to each
capiIlery vessel its normal elasticity
thus reaching the cause. Whenever
the catarrh IL located where it is con-
venient to make local applications
they undoubtedly assist Pe.ru-na in
completing cure, but this ia
not always the case, and Pe-ru-ns
can be relied on to perfec q
cure without any local treatment
whatever. Catarrh of the kidneys
bladder, uterus, larynx, broncha
tubes, lungs and frontal sinuses, are
all beyond the reach of effective local
treatment, and Internal treatment II
the only hope. Pe-ru-na is equal to
the k, it cures catarrh wherever
located by removing the cause.

GALVESTON MARINE.
Tide-Bound Steamships Still at Anchor With
Prospects Of Early Release.

Prospects Of Early Release.
Special to The Statesman.
GALVESTON, Jan. ia board OF
survey was held today on the British
steamship Egglestone Abbey at pier
16 to ascertain the damage sustained
by her while aground on the outer
bar. 1t was found that the rivets in
her plates beneath the engine room
had been started, causing leak, but
that the damages could be repaired
from the inside by covering them
with gutta percha, held in place by
riveted iron plates and the whole COW
cred with cement. This will be done
Immediately and the Egglestone Ab-
hey be ready for sea in a few days
The wind changed to the east last
night, enabling the steamships Bona
and Lampasas to cross the bar. The
other steamers reported tide bound
are still at anchor in Bolivar Roads,
the sea being too rough to cross TIA
bar, although the Nueces attempted il
but had to put back. The steamship
Kanawa was tow, d down to the ma
rine ways today to be hauled out to
repair the damages received in cross
ing the bar last week.

Natural Gas at Memphis.

MEMPHIS, Jan. Unnatural gas has
besn discovered in large quantities on
Paddy's Hen and Chicken island, TIVE
miles above Memphis, on the Missis-
sippi river. Gas is found in little
wells in every part of the island. 1t
ignites readily and in some cases ex-
plodes with a loud report when
touched off. The land belongs to
Bryan & Co., coal dealers. They will
utilize the gas if it stands the test
which they propose to apply.
