Mr. Editor: Having read in your pa
per reports ot the reourkable cures ot
catarrh, I am Induced to tell "what 1
know about catarrh," d I fan:y '.the
"enufl" and "lubaliuj tube" makers
(mere dollar grabbers) would be glad if
they could emblazon a similar euro In
the papers. For 36 years I euffered wltb
catarrh. The nal passages became
completely closed. 'Snufl," "dust,"
'ashee," "Inhaling tubcE," and 'sticks,"
wouldu't work, though atUnterval I
would snifi up (be so-called catarrh snuff.
until I became a valuable tester lor such
medicines. 1 gradually grew worse, and
no one can know how much I suffered
or what a miserable being I w as. My
bead ached over mv eves so that 1 was
confined to my bed for many successive
day, suffering the moot intense pain,
which at one time lasted continuously
for 168 hours. All sense of smell and
taste gone, sight and bearing impaired,
body shrunken snd weakened, nervous
system shattered and constitution broken,
and I was havking and spitting seven
eighths ot th time, 1 prayed for death
to relieve nieof my suflering. A favora
ble notice in your paper of Dr. Sage's
Catarrh Reinly induced me to purchase
a package an( use it with Dr. Pierce's
Nasal Doucbv which applies the remedy
by bydrostate pressure, the only way
compatible vita common sense. Well,
Mr. Editor, i did not cure me In three
fourths of a econd, nor in ouo hour or
month, but ti less than eight minutest
wasrellevedand In three months entire
ly cured, andbare remained so for over
sixteen montis. While using the Catarrh
Remedy, I used Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Dieovery to purify my blood
and strengtbn my stomach. I also kept
my liver setre and bowels regular by
the use ot hi Pleasant Purgative Pellets.
It my eiprlencc will Induce other
sufferers to leek the same means of re
lief, this leter will bavo answered Its
