The following we extract from a lit

V. Tierce, M. D., of Buffalo, N. Y.

ing and useful little book, post paid,
by enclosing one postage stamp to the
diutor.
Symptoms. In the early stages of
the disease the patient may be annoy
ed uilli "milv a slivht driiiiiiintr in the
- . o - i i o I
throat," as many express it, the I
amount of discharge fro in the air pass-1
ages ol the head at this stage ol the
disease being only slightly in excess J
of health. In some cases the discharge
is thick, ropy and tough, requiring fre
quent and strung effort in the way of
hawking, blowing and spitting to re
move it from the throat, where it fre
quently lodges. In other cases, or in
oilier stages of the same case, the dis
charge is thin, watery, acrid, irritating
and profuse. The uose may be slop
ped up from the swollen and thicken
ed condition of the lining mucous mem
brane, so as In necessitate rspiration
through the mouth, giving to the voice
a disagreeable nasal twang. The dis
ease sometimes assumes a dry form,
there being very little or no discharge.
In some cases the patient sutfeiB from
headache a great portion of the time,
or muy experience a dull, heavy, disa
greeable fullness or pressun in the
head, with confusion of bis ideas, which
renders him quite unfit for business,
especially such as requires deep thought
aud mental labor, Memory may be
more or less atfected, aud the disposi
t ion of i hose w ho are otherwise amiable
is often rem cred irritable, or morose
aud depoudent. The jieutal faculties
sutler to such exteut iu some cases as
to result iu insanity. The sense of smell
is in many cases impaired, and some
times entirely lost, aud the senses of
taste aud hearing may be more or less
affected.
The secretion which is thrown out
iu the more advanced stages of Chron
ic Catarrh becomes so acrid, unhealthy
and poisouuus, that it produces severe
irritaliou aud lulluminatioii, which
are followed by excoriatiuu and ulcer
ation of the delicate lining membrane
of the air passages iu the head. As
the ulceration eats its way up among
tho small bones the discharge general
ly becomes profuse and otteii excess
ively fetid, requires the frequeut use
of the haudkercbief, and renders the
poor sufferer disagreeable both to him
aelf aud those with w hom he associates.
Thick, tough, brownish incrustations
or hardened lumps, are many times
formed iu the bead by the evaporation
of the watery portion of the discharge.
These luuqis are sometimes so large
and tough that it is w ith great difficul
ty that they can be removed. They
are usually Discharged every day or
two, but only to be succedeJ by anoth
er crop. It is painfully unpleasant to
wituess the ravages of this terribledis
ease, and observe the extent to which
it sometimes progresses. Holes are
eaten through the roof of the mouth,
aud great cavities excavated into the
solid boties of the face, and iu such
cases only the best aud most thoroiigh
treatment, both meal and constitutional
will check the progress aud fatal ter
mination of the disease.
Only a few of the large number of
symptoms which I have desci ibed as
common to the iliU'creiit stages of Ca
tarrh will be likely to be manifested
at one time iu a single case. Although
they aro all comnioii to the disease, in
some of its stage, yet thousands of
cases annually terminate in consump
tion or insanity, aud end in the grave,
without ever hiving manifested one
half of the symptioms above enumer
ated. As tho disease progresses, or fro
queutly in its earlier stages, the
throat is apt tj become, atfected. It
becomes dry, sore or law, or studded
with very small ulcers, wliu-Ji, as seen
through the Month, look like small
pimples or "canker aores," fr w hich
they are often mistaken. The voice
I may be more or lss atfected, especial
ly on exposure to cold or overexer
tion, and a hiu king cough is not uu
frequeut. Ciecpiiig along the contin
uous lining mucous membrane of the
air passages, the disease gradually ex
leu is to the larynx, aud by the same
process of extension the bronchial
tulips, and lastly the btibntauce of the
lungs, iu their turn, are diseased, and
Bronchitis aud Consumption firmly
established. Tightness iu the chest,
with difficulty of breathing, soreness,
darting, sharp or dull heavy pain, or
a prickly distressing sensation, accom
panied with more or less cough and
expecto ation, are evidence that the
bronchial tubes have become affected,
aud should admonish the sufferer that
he is now standing tif on tht stepping
s one to Consumption, over whit h
thousands annually Iread iu theirslow,
yet sure, jouruey to the grave.
TREATMENI OF CATAItKII.
If you would remove un evil, strike
ut its root. This is the "common
sense," or rational way to treat Ca
tarrh. As the prediHHising or real
cause of Catarrh is, in the majority of
cases, somo weakness, impurity or
otherwise tUuItly condition of the sys
dare do our duty as we understand itw--LINCOLN.
tem, which invites the disease, and
needs only the irritation produced in
the nasal passages by an attack of
cold to kindle the flame and establish
the loathsome malady, in attempting
to cure it our chief aim must be direct
ed to the removal of thai cause. The
more I see of this odious disease, the
more do I recognise the importance
and necessity of combining, with the
use of a local soothing and healing
application, a thorough internal use of
blood-cleansing and strengthening
medicine, if we would successfully
treat the disease.
As a local application for healing
the diseased condition in the head,
DK. SACK'S CATARRH REMEDY
Is beyond all comparison the best
preparation ever discovered. It is
mild and pleasant to use, producing
no smarting or pain, aud contains no
strong irritating or caustic drug or
other poison. Its ingredients are sim
ple and harmless, yet when scientific
ally and skillfully combined iu just
the right proportions they form a mt
wonderful valuable healing medicine.
Like gunpowder, which is formed by
the combination of saltpetre, sulphur
and charcoal, the ingredients are sim
ple, but the product of their combina
tion is wonderful in its effects. It is a
powerful antiseptic, and speedily de
stroys all bad smell which accompanies
so many cases, thus affording grat.
comfort to those who suffer in this j
way. It speedily subdues acute attacks
of "cold iu the bead, ' thus preventing
their resulting in Chronic Catarrh. Its
cleansing, autisepic, soothing aud heal-;
lug properties are truly wonderlul.
The Catarrh Remedy fluid should be
applied by the use of
DR. TIERCE'S NA8AL DOVCIIE,
which carries it high up aud applies it
to all parts of the affected uasal pass
ages, and the chambers and cavities
communicating therewith. Three or
four packages of . the Remedy usid
with this instrument which is sold by
druggists at sixty cents will do more
good thaif ft dozen used in any other
manner. While the Catarrh Remedy
ia being used lm-aljy, we must not neg
lect to correct the constitutional fault
upon which the ilistase generally de
pends, or the Catarrh, if relieved at
all, is very apt to show itself again up
on slight exposure. If it does not, the
weakness or humor may manifest its
presence by developing disease of the
iuiigj, liver, hones or other organs or
structures. For this reason, iu partic
ular, the reader must see tlu great im
portance of purifying aud regulating
the system aud building up the
strength to a healthy standard at the
same time that the disease iu the head
is being healed ' by the use of Dr.
Sage's Caturih Remedy. Not only
will the cure be thus more surely,
and permanently effected, but you
thereby guard against other forms of
disease breaking out as the result of
humors iu the blood or constitutional
dcrangauieuts or weaknesses.
For this purpose I have discovered
a medicine that will, better than any
other, accomplish the object sought.
To designate this wonderlul medicine,
I have named it
DR. PIERCE'S ALT. EXT., OR GOLDEN
MEDICAL. DISCOVERY.
No other alterative or blood clean
ser, and no other pectoral, or throat,
bronchial or lung medicine should ever
be used with Dr. Sage's Catarrh Reme
dy, as none other is so well calculated
to work in harmony with, aud assist it
iu its operations.
Many blood and cough medicines
have a tendency to intericre with the
effects of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
They should not I here for'- be used.
ily Golden Medical Discovery is the
natural "hep mate" of JJr. Hiaye'i Ca
tarrh Remedy. It not only cleanses,
purifies, regulates and buililsup the sys
tem to a healthy standard, aud con
quers throut, bronchial aud lung com
plications when any such exist, but
from its specific effects upon the lining
membrane, of the uasal passages it aids
materi Ily iu restoring the diseased,
thickened or ulcerated membrane to a
healthy condition, aud thus eradicat
ing the disease. Vhe:i a cure is effect
ed in this manner it is permanent.
Indeed very few cuses of Cularrh
cau be cured at all by the use of locul
applications only. A thorough course
of alterative and tonic treatment must
be used with Dr. Sage's Catarrh Rem
edy, if you would derive the greatest
amount of benefit. This will require
the use of from six to twelve bottles of
uiy Golden Medical Di-c.ivery.
Dr. Sage't Catarrh Remedy effects
cures upon common sense, rational ui.d
scientific principles, by its mild, sooth
ing aud healing properties, to which
the disease gradually yields, when the
system has been put in perfect order
by ths use of my Golden Medical Dis
covery. This is the only perfectly
safe, scientific aud successiul mode of
of acting upon and healing it.
Scarcely a mail ai lives that does
not bring me new testimony of cures
ejfected by the treatment which I here
recommend. The best evidence of
what can be done in the treatment ol
any disease is to be found in the past
success of the treatment to be employ
ed. An old proverb says, "what has
been doue may be done again." Iu
view of tbeso facts, aud kuowiug that
WAN.
$2 PER ANNUM.
I have cored thousands of the worst
cases of Catarrh, and have never failed
to effect a perfect cure when I have had
a reaonnlvle chance, I hereby offer
in good failh $500 Reward for a case of
Catarrh which J cannot cure. I claim
that I CAN CUKE ANT AND EVERY CASE
OF IT IF MY DIRECTIONS AKK FAITH
FULLY followed. Why then trifle
with this disease, reader? Why put off
the, use of the sure means of cure
which I offer? Do yon not know that
"procrastination is the thief of time?"
Why try to make light of it by think
ing that is only Catarrh? Do you not
know that consumption, and insanity
are among iu frequent results, and
that thereby millions of graves are
filled? Do I upeak strongly ? Can I
speak too strongly? Why disgust your
friends and associates with the offen
sive odor of vour breath, or by your
constant hawking.blowing aud spitting,
when relief is so easily and cheaply
obtained? Is it not a duty that voti
owi to 'others as well as yourself to
get rid ot this disgusting complaint?
Do not thluk that the disease will in
time wear out. Ou tho contrary, it
will, uuless cured, wear you out. Do
not think that you cannot be cured.
The world moves, aud medical science
is progressive. Many forms of disease,
which would once have beeu entirely
incurable with tbe means then known,
are, in the light of more recent dis.
coveries in medicine, very easily cured.

Remedy or Nasal Douche will be sent

A "boss" barber in Springfield,
Mass., tells the following rather amus
ing story concerning two of his employ
ees: One of litem applied at a hoard
ing house for hoard. His application
was granted, and just as he was leav
ing, congratulating himself on having
secured a home, he was asked whathia
business was. lie replied, "I am a
barber." He was then told that that
class of boarders was not wauled, and
he left, although his employer offered
to be responsible to the boarding house
proprietor for the payment of his
workman's bills ami for his behavior.
The other "barber" hearing the result
of his companion's visit, went to the
same place and mude a similar request.
On being asked his business he slated
he wan an "artist," he might huve
added "tot sorial," but he didn't, and
was immediately installed iu a place
at the table and given one of die best
rooms iu tne house.
