C, P. S. 0., 137 9. Broadway, Los Angeles, Cal., By his Aerean system of practice, which con sists of proper Medicated Inhalations aud COM POUND OXYGEN TREATMENT. Probably no system of practice ever employed has been so universally successful as the Aerean system of practice as introduced by Dr. Williams for the cure of Catarrh, Throat Dis eases, Asthma and Consumption. CATARRH. •j Catarrh Is often regarded by the patient as a cold in the head, and he often expresses his astonishment at his remarkable tendency to contract fresh cold. Indeed he declares that he is scarcely free from one cold before he takes another, aud he is always exceedingly careful; it is also a matter of surprise to him i that the cold always seems to settle in the | head and throat. At times many of the symptoms of catarrh I seem to abate, and the patient is led to hope ; that the disease is about to wear off; but an other class of symptoms soon appear and he learns to his horror, that instead of recovery from the disease, it is somewhat changed in its character and has extended to the throat. A sense of weariness is sometimes felt in reading, speaking or singing; hoarseness at times occurs, a sensation of drvness is felt in the throat, or it appears that 'some foreign substance, as, for instance, a hair, obstructed the throat; there becomes a sense of languor and fatigue; the breath lessens on a little exertion, a short, hacking cough, a neculiar sound in clearing the throat, a feeling as though there was not room enough in the chest to breathe; these and other symptoms occur after the disease has made considerable progress. Then it is a time when consumption is about to begin its dreadful work. Up to this time the Iprogress of the disease may have been slow and the patient may, in i expressing his confident hope that it will ! "wear off," declare that he has had the catarrh I for years nnd has not seemed to become much worse, and trusts that he will "by and by" j recover. But this delusion is tho grand error which has peopled .our cemeteries with con ] sumptive forms, as all forms of catarrh end I finally in consumption. | Consultation nnd one application at the office FREE. Those who desire to consult me in regard | to their cases had better call at the office for nit I examination, but if impossible to visit the office i personally, can write for list of questions aud I circular, both of which will be sent free of charge.
