third term In the Presidency. Grant,
-when I had finished, said:
"What a grotesque suggestion and -what
a position I should hold. I hare been
twice President, and on each occasion the
unanimous choice of the convention. The
'heads of the party, the men eminent in
'leadership, the older men who were in au
thority before I was known, the younger
men who have since won from the party its
highest consideration, all lowered
their colors and followed mine.
"Where should I be in regard to them? I
, -would have to antagonize their honorable
.ambition. At its best the nomination wyuld
only come with strife. Men who were and
ere friends, but who have as much right to
the creat honors of the country as I could
postibly claim, would be my enemies. It
would be the bitterest campaign in history:
would leave heartburnings that years could
not compose. I can onlv conceive one con
tingency in which my friends would con
sider me as I am considered by the editor of
that journal, and that is some widespread
revolution, or social upheaval, when the
strong hand and military prestige would be
Required to save society. I should take that
summons. But it will never come in my
time, not in the United States, whatever
tve mav see in England and Germany."
"Or France?" I asked. "So," he added,
"Prance has been through it. History never
repeats a Reign of Terror."
GRANT BID NOT "WAX! THREE TEEMS.
This was to me a most memorable conver
sation noted at the time the impression
clear to me; Grant talking long and earnest
ly in the vein I have written. I was his
constant, almost dailv companion from this
time until a year later, when we returned
from Japan. I never heard him again men
tion the subject 2or had I any reason to
believe it was a matter of correspondence
with the public men who were "plotting,"
cs the political cant of the time went.
Grant, to n hom my relation was was that
cf a secretary, invited such access to his
correspondence, in which I was always
only too glad to aid him, that I would have
known it. So Inr as the trip around the
world being a political programme toward a
third term, when he was ia Spain he had
abandoned all idea of it. This Z know. A
letter from General Sherman received a fen
days later than our Malaga visit, at Pan,
Baying th3t President Hayes was anxious to
lave him go to China on the Richmond, de
termined the matter, aud in December we
sailed from Marseilles.
. I have introduced this conversation as a
perlude to what seems necessary relative to
the statement herein quoted Irom General
Badeau. In the work entitled "Grant in
Peace," a mot interesting volume, valu
able as an elucidation of the character of
Grant, General Badeau says:
BADEAU'S ESTIMATE OF TOUSO.
After a st y of a few days in Chicago I re
turned to the East, and shortly afterward
Mr. Russell Young, who Had accompanied
Grant during tho grcator part of his Euro
pean and Asiatic tour, went out to visit him
at Galena. Young was opposed to Grant's
third nomination, principally, perhaps, be
canse he thought ho could not bo elected.
He had long and repeated conversations
with the General, in which ho represented
thevjewsof those 01 Grant's friends who
nere averso to his standing again. Mrs.
Grant suspected Young's purpose and tried
to tlmart it, and the discussions between
loung and the General were usually carried
on In her absence. This was only a few
days before the convention was to meet at
Chicago. General Grant had even yet made
no outspoken declaration of his intention,
though, of coure, havingallon cd his friends
to ue his name w ituoar objection, he could
not in honor withdraw it w ithout their con
Bent But Young induced him to write a letter,
cddresed to Senator Cameron, authorizing
his friends if they saw fit, to withdraw his
name liomthe convention. Tnis wasa most
extraordinary mllucr.ee for any one man to
exert with tinnt, and I have known few
parallel instances. Yoi ng. however, doubt
Jess appeared as the spokesman of others
"whose opinions backed his own, though his
fidelity ami luondsliio gave weight to what
lie said. But the l"tter was sent, in opposi
tion to the vii'usoi Mrs. Grant and withoat
her knowledge, and was calculated, of
course, to dampen the enthusiasm and be
"wilder the counsels of Grant's most devoted
adherents. I can conceive of no step more
unlike General Giant's ordinary character
or behavior than this half-way reversal of
what he had previously countenanced.
COULD KOT STEP OUT TEES.
But It was too late to recede; his friends
had committed both him and themselves,
and they w ero not influenced by this phase
of irresolution which had passed over him.
They made no use of the letter, nor did
Toung, and those to whom it was suDmitted
liave never made it p-iblic Grant never
censured tho::i for the fldelity that disre
jjarded his suggestion of w ithdrawaU and all
the remainder of ins life he remained more

had played hnn lal-e; and he remembered
"the io!onco ol omo who supported Mr.
Blaine w ith an aci imony that was not con
fined to them, but was extended to his
great rival. Even former inllowcrs, who
did not support him in the concluding pol
itical effort ol lus life, never held the same
place in his personal regard. Ilia failure em
bittered his feeling to all who contributed
to it This remark hns no reference to
Young. Grant followed Young's counsel,
and In the end, perhaps, wished others had
done so too. It was at his urgent advice
that Young was afterward appointed Minis
ter to China by President Arthur.
BADEAU OVERESTIMATED HIS INFLUENCE
There is an essential correctness in this
narrative, with one or two reservations.
General Badeau does General Grant an in
justice in supposing that I exerted an "ex
traordinary influence" over him, or that to
me mut be attributed Grant's "halfway
reversal of w hat he had previously counten
anced." As I have said, when I returned
from Japan in 1879, I had never heard an
expression of opinion irom him as to the
third term. Holding in mind the memor
able conversation in Malaga to which I have
referred, knowing the temper of his mind,
aud that he was inflexible in opinions, es
pecially when, as in this instance, he had
carefully considered the matter, I gave it
no thought. When Mr. Gordon Bennett,
on my meeting Lira in cw York, said with
some feeling that nothing could prevent
Grant's nomination and election I quoted
the Malaga conversation. Returning
to London, where I reuiaired until late in
the spring of 1S80, I read the American
newspapers the third-term discussion tak
ing volume with the Malaga conversation
In mind, and with sccondary'interest If it
ever became serious, I was "sure that Grant
would, as at Malaga, end the business in a
quiet, decisive way.
This opinion was so fixed in my mind, so
firm because of my knowledge of Grant's
character, and theVisdom of what he had
eaid, that I remember my surprise when I
read in a pr.ate letter," written perhaps
in March, 18t0, Irom a trieud who was near
him, this sentence: "It now looks as if the
General would be nominated on the first
ballot" I should have deemed the state
ment Incredulous but for the author. It
showed that the third term movement had
life, and that n. tad the negative, if not the
positive, support of Grant Nothing could
lmve surprised me more.
HOW chant's friends felt.

In no other Tray that General Grant la
alive." I answered, very much alive when
I had seen him in California, and interested
in nothing so much as the fact that the
melon crop Lad not suffered while he was
gone. Conkling said he asked because it
was an advantage, when you were pressing
the nomination of a friend for the Presi
dency, to know that the friend -was alive;
that he hadno word, no message from Grant
directly or indirectly; was not even aware
that he knew what Lis friends Lad been
doing.
COX-KECK SCOLDED GRANT'S ERIENDS.
I said what was Tery true, that I Lad
never Leard from Grant, either in speech or
correspondence, nny other feeling than
aversion to the nomination. Conkling was,
he said, disappointed at the apathy of many
friends of Grant from whom he expected
support, and inveighed against them and
their ingratitude for what Grant had done,
and this the return for it, in his own old
fashioned way. "His rich friends," as
Conkling denominated them with a sneer,
"had not given a dollar." And money was
needed to pay the expenses of poor dele
gates from the South and elsewhere, to
whom a convention fare meant everything.
There were other friends of Grant who were
toolow for his own fiery will. Logan Lad
a speech to deliver, was Lobbling around in
a gestatorymood with that speech, and 'un
til beneficent nature came to his aid and
blessed him with a happy delivery would
be of no use to anv human being. "Windom,
whom Conkling was counting on for warm
support, bad the bee in his own bonnet
bee deftly inserted by an insidious Blaine
man and could hear only its own buzzing.
Edmunds was at heart a lover of Grant, but
some academic public opinion in Vermont
hung upon him and weighed Lim down into
silence.
CONKLING'S GREAT EAR ESTJI ESS.
I recall this conversation as a part of the
narrative and because it was when Conkling
appeared at his best He was nobly in
earnest All the resources of his genius
were in play. The election ot tirant was
his one purpose. "He cannot be defeated
be must not be defeated. It would be like
the defeat ot Napoleon at "Waterloo. The
sun of liberty would stand in its course,
the world go'baok for centuries." This was
a favorite phrase of Coupling's, as illustra
tive of his political fervor at the time, and
I think it came into his nominating speech
at Chicago. He went over the situation
with keenness and minute knowledge of the
campaign. He was a leader. He was in
the battle for every result He had no com
promise, no concession, no other candidate.
As for his own name, his Lands would
wither ere he assented. He flouted the
discontent in New York and Pennsylvania.
The tide was with Lim the tide and the
sea. It was the tide of the people's confi
dence in Grant, their confidence and affec
tion. As for these mere politicians, with
their mops and brooms, they were, so many
Mrs. Partingtons essaying against the sea.
I never saw Conkling more truly a leader,
never saw him so abundant in courage, re
source and wilL
I ventured one illustration that I was
gratified to see used at Chicago "If Grant
is disfranchised, as some of the leaders hold
that he must be as regards this nomination,
then we have two disfranchised Americans,
the man who saved the Union and the man
who tried to destroy it General Grant and
Jefferson Davis."
I returned to New York in May. Letters
awaited me from Grant asking me to visit
Lim at Galena, and I made my arrangements
to doso. The third term movement was in
the air covered the political heavens, as it
were clouds big with storm and terror, far
irom reassuring to those who lelt as 1 did
toward Grant an interest in no sense politi
cal, but persona!, as we alone gie to those
bound in the near ties of kinship and affec
tion. I met many of Grant's friends
Xogan, Carpenter, Arthur, Sheridan, Don
Cameron, Drexei, Childs dozens of them.
There wa a deep, earnest enthusiasm about
most of them, especially Don Cameron and
Arthur. Mr. Childs was troubled over the
business. Did not believe in it, feared that
Grant's peerless fame was to be torn by
political ambitions; that it would be the
victim of party rancor and emulation. I in
ferred from Mr. Drexel that he was of the
6aine mind, speaking as he did with deep
affection for Grant, but in his wise, firm
quiet way.

A TYPICAL TALK Willi SHERMAN.
An evening, likewise, with General Sher

mood. Did not believe in politics; did not
think Grant Lad a dozen friends in the
party, anyhow, that were not his friends for
what they -could make out of him. Before
he came to Washington was amazed and
awed at the greatness of the men who ruled
the nation. When he came near the city,

showers of eloquence to frighten tyrants,
and deluge the land with knowledge. Re

like a volcanic stream with ashes and
marl and gems in its fiery current
THE MEETING AT GALENA.
So far, then, as appearing at Galena, as
General Badeau writes, "as the spokesman
of others whose opinions backed his own,"
the only friends of Grant who in their con
versation with me were opposed to the third
term were General Sherman, Mr. Childs and
Mr. DrexeL I arrived in the evening and
went to the General's Lome. "We sat to
gether on the porch until late. The Presi
dental question never arose. General Grant
was more than cordial; affectionate and. kind
as I ever found him, and we had much to
say about men and things in faraway lands.
In answer to some question abont Wash
burne he spOke with stern, sharp words of
alienation; had been persnaded into the be
lief that some recent political action on the
parfc-of Washbume could only be explained
upon a theory of personal perfidy. I was
pained over it But I could say nothing
useful, and noted it as an incident of the
strange business called politics.
In the morning Grant insisted that he
must show me Galena and the lead mines.
We took a long drive; a pair of restless
horses, wLich Grant, with the wizard touch
wherever the horse was concerned, handled
with dexterity. He showed me the home
of his honorable poverty: the warehouse
where, in silence over repellent heaps of
learner, ne awanea ine mignty summons to
immortal fame; and all that was worth
seeing, the lead mines and the history of
the lead industry. It was on this drive
that we had the talk reerred to by General
Badeau upon the third term.
YOUNG'S TALK WITH GRANT.
Grant inquired if I had seen many of his
friends in the East I told him in running
narrative what I could recall He asked my
own judgment I Eaid that I was disposed
to agree with Drexel and Childs. I had not
spoken onthe theme to anyone. So long
as his friends were in the movement, no
word of mine should dishearten them. I
had no foolish illusions about a tbird term.
A President in power, controlling the
patronage of the Government and arranging
a third term, that would be a serious busi
ness. He was not in power nor were the
members of the Cabinet his friends. I be
lieved that especially with his experience in
other lands, that he would give us the most
brilliant administration since Jefferson's.
That I heard him say so often: "What would
I have given to Lave known this tea years
before."

were in Malaga, and that if I were manncini.

would be his time. In 1884 he would be
about the average age of the Presidents.
The age of Washington and Jackson when
they entered their second term; would at
the end be younger than Harrison and
Buchanan when they took office; that if a
Democrat succeeded Hayes his nomination
as an escape from Democratic rule would be
as unanimous as in 1868; that the party was
oo torn that he would enter the campaign
not as a conqneror upon whom honor had
clustered every garland, but as a gladiator,
from an arena where he had been tossed and
tumbled by every Dacian tb,at could be
tbrown against Lim. That I looked upon
the political mutiny in Pennsylvania under
McManes, in New York under Robertson,
and in Illinois as fatal to any hope of a
nomination that would be worth the having.

said with the kindest patience, and with
no shadow of annoyance. He went at length
into the reasons which had made him change
hjs mind from the opinions expressed at
Malaga. Nothing could Lave swerved him
from that purpose but two considerations.
The one was the extremo personal hostility
shownby Blaine; literary bureaus charging
him with being a "whisky thief" imputa

made it almost his duty to run, as Ae only
man who could defeat Blaine and save the
Country from the nerilq of nn nrlmlniKtrfl-
tion which might dc under such influences
feo wiuac oy uosciv pursuing uim.
Here, then, was the warrior Instinct
aroused in the heart of the bravest and
boldest warrior of his time, the man who
never went oat of his Way either to give or
take a blow. I told Grant that I knew
Blaine as well as I knew anyone in publio
life: that in the war of politics no one could
strike hardevblows; that no one believed
more thoroughly in the duty of hitting;
that he had never made a political cam
paign except upon warlike principles; that
he had no sentiment in such matters, but
that he was ever the most magnanimous of
men, even to an opponent And that so
far from holding him in personal resent
ment because of the vulgar fulminations of
some unspeaicabie Knaves who had access
to Republican ink and paper, if I were to
select the one public man as a champion to
come to the front and defend him against
these scandals, I would take Blaine. There
was the feeling, however. It had been
planted in his mind. It had awakened a
sentiment of personal antagonism. It was
a fact a potent fact in the controversy
potent and determining. In time it was to
die away, and the two men come to a bet
ter knowledge of one another. Then was
not the time.
HIS DOTS' TO THE SOUTH.
However, that was personal, and Grant
knew what was due to his party and the
nation not to let that sway him, unless
LigLer interests were apparent Here was
the South the sad, troubled South. And
nothing done to awaken the people to the
fact that their true friends were in the Re
publican party. He could carry six or
more Southern States against whoever the
Democrats could nominate, and that ser
vice toward peace and reconstruction would
repay him.for the burdens of another "campaign.
General Badeau says that I induced Grant
to "write a letter addressed to Senator
Cameron authorizing his friends, if they
saw fit, to withdraw his name from the con
vention." As a matter of fact, the sugges
tion that he would write a letter came from
Grant himself. He said in his firm, quiet
way: "I will write Don Cameron."
After luncheon we were joined in the
library by General Thomas It. Kane, of
Pennsylvania, well known in war days,
when Le commanded tLe "Bucktails,"
brother to the famous Arctic explorer, an
indomitable, enthusiastic, original, brill
iant, wayward, almost eccentrio man of
genius flashes of strange, weird power
coming out of him; prolifio in views on cu
rious questions: Mormondom, the perils of
women, the value of pine wood from a sani
tary point of view, and an adorer of Grant,
who esteemed Lim. I had known Kane
well, and as we talked Grant wrote in his
swift, unpausing way. t In time Le turned
and said, as though it were a part of our
morning tali: "I have written to JJon.Cam-eron."
THE LETTEK TO DOW CAMERON.
He read the letter to General Kane and
myself. It was addressed to Senator Cam
eron, giving at length his reasons for con
senting to be a candidate for renomination,
but saying that if, in the opinion of Mr.
Cameron and certain other friends his
nomination was unadvisable, his name
should be withdrawn. Without waiting our
opinion he left the room with the letter to
read it, as I supposed, to Mrs. Grant She
spoke to me with knowledge of it later, but
apart from the interest natural to her hus
band's fortunes, I recall no expression of
Ler's to show that her mind was not one
with his own. This letter I took to Chicago,
and gave it to Colonel Grant, who handed
it to Senator Cameron. Cameron spoke to
me about it, and said he would make it a
matter of conference. I remember this con
versation, because Cameron in a bit of amus
ing invectivevspoke of his odd position as
leading a convention fight without ever hav
ing had a word with his chief.
''There have been," he said, "a dozen
Cabinet offices pledged this morning for
votes. If any one of our boys would pledge
a post office it would cost him the friendship
of Grant" Assuredly it would. In that,
as in all matters, his honor was stainless and
high.
CONKLING FOEBADE PUBLICATION.
When the convention was ovr, remem
bering this letter, 1 asked the permission of
umiui iu prmb iu x miew it would ao SO
much to snow the nation the General in his
true colors; that what he had done was
patriotic. Grant gave his consent I saw
Senator Cameron and asked him for it He
told me it had been given to Conkling.
When Conkling came .to New York I called
and told him that Grant was willing to have
his letter.go to the nation. Conkling aid
with dramatic emphasis: "I forbid the bans.
Never with my consent The letter'should
never have been written. It was meant to
arrest a movement the defeat of which has
turned back the clock of history, turned it
back as far as Waterloo."
The Napoleon metaphor over againl
"Then the friends of Grant were wiser
than himself," and so on and so on.
I repeated Conkling's objections to Grant,
aud with a quiet smile the General said:
"Well, if it will please Roscoe let the matter
drop."
l nave always regretted that I did not re
tain a copy ot this letter, as Grant would
have most readily permitted. I was earnest
with Conkling in my opinion that its publication-was
due to Grant, and if I had had a
copy would have printed jt. The matter,
however, rested. The impression made
upon me by Conkling's objections was that
he meant to revive the third term move
ment at the close of the Garfield administra
tion, and nothing should be in the way.
He may have had other and deeper feel
ings. CONKLING FIRM TO THE LAST.
When Bade3u's book came from the
press, containing, as it did, the narrative
above quoted, Mr. Thorndyke Rice, the late
editor of the North American iJTtoe, asked me
to write the story as X remembered it I
assented, Baying, however, that I must have
the letter. Nearly eight years Lad passed
since it Had. been written. I wrote
Conkling, asking for it, a few
weeks before Le died. His answer
showed that in 1888 he was as much opposed
to the publication as he had been in 1880.
I have never been able to explain this re
luctance, except upon the theory that as a
political pnrpose the third term should have
a silent page in history, and that he did
not care to appear as havinsjthe entire re
sponsibility of an enterprise which Grant
.had really accepted as against his better
judgment.
As General Badeau intimates. General
Grant never showed any bitterness of feel
ing toward me because of the counsel I gave
him at Galena. He, and le alone, was the
only person I ever spoke to on the subject
I had no public antagonism to whatever
concerned Grant I went,to California be
fore the convention adjourned, and when I
returned it was my high privilege to see
Grant almost daily and to rejoice ina friend
ship which I never ceased to honor and shall
never cease to mourn.
his family. A storr which came to him from
Hartford, to the effect that the late Gover
nor, Marshall Jewell, although on terms of
Sohtic&l and almost personal'alienation with
im, bad declined to enter the convention
as a Blaine delegate, because he would not
vote against a chief in whose Cabinet he
Lad sat, touched him keenly, and was a
step toward a reconciliation between two
men who ha,d so much in common in tho
courtesy, chivalry and courage of their
character.
The Chier Justice story, so far as it con
cerned Conkling, Grant told me, but would
not consent to my publishing it while
wane was alive as he did not want Waite
to feel tha.t the office had gone hawking
around before it reached him. "When
Chase died," said Grant, "my thoughts
went to Conkling. I told Mrs. Grant, and
she was enthusiastic over it I did not
mean to make the nomination until the fall
for some reason, and I kept my purpose to
myself. In the meantime Conkling had
arranged an Adirondacks fishing summer
jiarty and I feared if I would go people
would say when I namedtonkling that it
was the result of a summer's junketing. So
I made an excise and sent a regret When
Congress was abont to assemble I wrote
Conkling a formal tender of the place, and
was never more surprised, never more at
sea, than when Le declined. I think I
should owe him a grudge for that refusal.
It brought me many troubles. People said
political ambition was behind It This was
not so. When I saw Conkling he explained
that his poverty, not his will, prevented
his taking a place worthy of the highest
ambition.'
TWO TAMOTTS EETTEBa.
This correspondence is worth repeating
now, as I find in autographic form in
Conkling's Life:
JExxocnvB- MAvsrosr,
WAsnnraTOT, D., C. Nor. 8, 1875,
Mr TJeab SswATon When the Chief
Justiceship became vacant I necessarily
looked with anxiety to some one whose ap
pointment would be recognized as entirely
fitting and acceptable to the country at
largo. My own' preference went to you at
once. But I determined and announced
that the appointment would not bo made
until tho meetlngof Congress: that I thought
a Chief Justice should never be subjected to
the mortification of a rejection. The possi
bility of your rejection was not dreamed of.
But I think tho conclusion of waiting for
confirmation was right on principle.
I now wish to state to vou that mv first
convictions on the subject of who should be.
u unge unaso's successor nave received con
firmation by time, and I tender the nomina
tion to you to bo made on the meeting of
Congress, in tho hopo that you will accept,

My Dear Mr. President:
Your letter of the 8th Instant, postmarked
the 13th, enmo here during my absence. On
the Hth General Bancoek mailed a copy,
which reached me at New York on the 15th,
and the space since then, you will not, I
trust, think too long for due reflection.
Yon offer me the Chief Justiceship, and
this confidence outweighs all the honors of
the place.
My transfer now from the Senate to the
Bench Involves considerations not only te
yond those before you; and atter much
thought I am convinced that in view of the
whole case yon would agree with mo that
another appointment should be made.
I will.not detain you with reasons norwlth
expressions of the profound sense of obliga
tion io you wnion wiuaoiue witn me always;
but instead I ask you to let your ohoicefall.
on another, who however else qualified,
believes as man and lawyer, as I believe, in
the measures you have upheld In war and
in peace. Your friend and servant,
ROSCOE C05KLIHO,

A. FAMOUS HEALTH KESOItT.
Messrs. Rider and "Witherop, Proprietors of
the Gray Mineral Springs, Announce
That They 1F11I Keep the Hotel River
side Open Dnrlnj the -Winter inOrder to
Sleet tho Demands of Those Secklnc
Health and Rest.
Cambridgebobo, Sept 17, The man
agement of the "Hotel Riverside" and Gray
mineral sprinp, of Cambridgeboro, Pa., are
to be congratulated on their complete facili
ties for the comfortable entertainment of
winter guests.
The unlooked-for patronage of last winter
and the unprecedented numbers of summer
guests that haye taxed the full capacity of
this mammoth hotel for the entire season
just ending, constitute proof positive that
the health and pleasure seeking public are
satisfied with this popular resort
Oyer 500,000 have-been expended In the
past year tor improvements on the hotel
and grounds, and to-day the Hotel River
side is equal in its appointments to any
hotel in the country.
On October 1 the rates" for board will be
reduced to the extremely low figures of 58,
$10 and 512 per week, which will include
the free use of the mineral water.
The baths will be a special feature of the
winter season, the apartments having been
enlarged and remodeled and an additional
force of attendants engaged. The prices for
baths will remain as before, from 25 cents to
5100.
Present indications are that the coming
winter will see the Riverside filled to over
flowing 'and the proprietors have given as
surance that no pains will be spared for the
comfort and welfare of patrons, and that
everything will, as in the past, be under
their direct supervision.
Winter has always been the season in
which the most beneficial results are ob
tained ' from drinking the water, and the
coming season will no doubt witness many
marvelous cures.
The spring pavilion is neatly furnished
throughout; is heated, furnished with
boudoir and washrooms and will comfort
ably accommodate 300 persons at a time.
The spring pavilion is -practically joined
to the hotel verandas by an elevated walk
niiiuu wuuetia tuc tvvu. jliues waiK.ls Dullt
at an average height of five ieet from the
ground, which insures perfect immunity at
all times from dampness underfoot.
Anyone suffering from derangement of the
stomach, liver o kidneys, rheumatism,
neuralgia, gout, nervous affections. 'la
grippe," Bnght's disease, or in fact almost
any disease to which human flesh is heir will
do well to write the proprietors (Messrs.
Rider and AYitherop) for printed testimon
ials of cures, etc., and any one in search of
a season's rest cannot find a better place to
procure it than here.

'What is this local treatment that Is used
to-day by all reputable physicians and
specialists in the treatment of catarrh ?
It is a process of constant and methodical
cleansing, healing and soothing of the mem
branes, foul and irritated from the poison
ous catarrhal secretions. Catarrh is a local
as well as constitutional disease, and the
membraneous surface where the local mani
festations usually occur must be kept clean
and pure from the poisonous catarrhal secre
tions as a wound must be kept clean from
poisonous accumulations. The sprays and
applications used in healing, soothing and
curing the affected parts are effective, pleas
ant and occasion neither the slightest pain
nor discomfort They relieve the nostrils
from their stopped-up and irritated condi
tion, cleanse the parts thoroughly, restore
the healthy action of the membranes, allevi
ate the inflammation, and, with the aid of
proper constitutional treatment, in good
process of time cure the disease.
Years ago, before such men as Drs. Cope
land & Hall and their associates cave their
lives and their education and their ability
to the treatment of catarrh, the profession
itself paid but little attention to the dis
ease, and apparently knew little about the
proper metnous ot treating ana curing it.
At that time, among some doctors, the
authorized treatment of catarrh was by the
use of caustic applications and acids, which
were severe and painful, and whije they
may have been scientifically and theoretic
ally correct, in many cases left a worse con
dition of the membranes than that which
they were intended to cure.
This was the old-fashioned treatment for
the cure of catarrh. It was harsh, it was
severe and was not as effective as that which
modern skill and science has devised, which
soothes, heals and relieves without pain or
irritation.
The harsher modes of treatment were
done away with by all-skillful and success
ful specialists many years ago, and the
local treatment, witl the aid of proper
constitutional remedies, as used to-day
by Drs. Copeland & Hall, and by all suc
cessful specialists, is mild, pleasant and
affords instant and temporary relief, as well
as, in- -regular sequence, permanent and
lasting cure.
Drs. Copeland & Hall congratulate them
selves upon no one thing more than upon
the fact that their methods are painless as
well as scientific and effective.
In so small and simple a matter as the
removal of polypus from the nose their
cures are accomplished without the slight
est pain or irritation.
A few years ngo doctors would drag nasal
polypii out with fcrceps, tearing the little
tumors out by the roots. The operation
was attended with pain, suffering and fre
quent hemorrhage. .
To-day Drs. Copeland Ss Hall remove
these polvpii by a simple and delicate oper
ation without the slightest pain or loss of
blood. '
This same principle applies to all varie
ties of their treatment for catarrhal troubles.
Thevcure catarrh scientifically and thor
oughly; eradicate the disease from tho
system; they use both local and constitn.
tional treatment, but they oocasion neither
pain nor the slightest unpleasant sensation
in the process or treatment

"I had been troubled for four or live
years. It came on gradually, through tho
exposure lnoldent to my occupation. I paid
but little attention to it until the disease
bad a good hold on mo and I realized that I
had a severe case of catarrh.
"My head would ache, my nose would stop
np and the nrucus would drop back into my
throat. My eves were sore and weak; my
ears were affected and kept continually
ringing and buzzing. My throat became
sqre and .inflamed and my stomaoh was in
such a condition that food did me bnt little
good. There waa always a heaviness and
bloated feeling after eatimr. Dizzy spells
would come over me so that I could hardly
buuiu, waufc ur auoiiu to my uuty.
THIS SCARED MB
for I thought If I should get any worse I
would be compelled to quit work, and I con
cluded to go to a physician and see what
could be done for me. I went to Drs. Cope
land and Hall, at 66 Sixth avenue, placing
my case in their hands and began to im
prove at once. I have been treating but a
short time, comparatively, and can say th.t
the symptons spoken of are all gone and 1
feel as -well as ever I did In my life."
Mr. A. J. Bchrata.
"I have been a sufferer from catarrh for
years. I had the usual symptoms head
aches, nasal passages stopped up, mucus
dropping into my throat, disordered stom
ach, poor appetite, distressed feeling after
eating and an annoying cough. Since taking
a course of treatment from Drs. Copeland
and Hall, 1 have entirely regained my
health, and can recommend their efficiency
and skill to others similarly afflicted."
