Dyspepsia, copstipation, caterrh and general breaking down of the system led me to fear serious results. Several physicians gave me only temporary relief. At length, while visiting my home in Hammonton, N.J., & physician, who was algo a personal friend, asked me if [had over tried any of the alteratives, to which I re- Plied, No. He then strongly urzed me to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, I was surprised at this recommendation and asked why he sould urge the use of a preparation like this. He replied: ‘Ido not consider Hood's Sarsa- Parilla 4 patent medicine, It should be classed among standard preparations for its real worth.’ I followed hisadvice and have taken eight bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, with what seems to me a marvelona re- sult, call myseif well again.

NORTHWEST, Catarrh manifests iteelf by a discharge from the head, sometimes of s colotiess glairy fluid, but oftener ota purulent, greeuinb-yellow mat- ter, which in many instances isso copious that Tatients feel as thougi their whole bead is ina stateof corruption, The discharwe often lodges behind and ebove the soft palate, requirius ale most constant hawking for its removal. Often scales or incrustations are blown from the noe- trils, either solid or of s tubular form, The breath is offensive, and sometimes revoltingly fetid. Smell, and occasionally the taste, is im- paired or destroyed, the bearing becomes af- fected, noises in the head make their appear ance, and the eyes sre apt to become irritated and watery. The head feels full, heavy, and compressed, especially above and between the eyes, and severe neursigic pain is often ex- perienced about the face and head. Lhe patieut coughs more or lesg, has a capricious appetite, Joses flesb and strength, is depressed in spirite and inclined to drowsiness. The memory is weakened and oftun seriously isupaired. Cold istaken from the least exposure, and step by Step the inflammation epresds until it reaches the lungs aud terminetes in Cousumpucn, se frequent.y bas this fetal course been noticed that Catarrh is now looked upon as one of the earliest Manifestations of Luis dread disease.
