ptoms are not as distressing as the sense of fullness about the eyes
and frontal region, and prickling dry heat, with more or less
obstruction in the nostrils. A few hours later follows a copious, acrid
watery discharge, which gradually becomes thick and yellow. Often the
inflammatory action may extend to the orifice of the eustachian tube,
causing obstruction with temporary deafness, or ringing in the ears.
Severe facial neuralgia may be caused by the pressure from the swollen
parts upon the branches of sensitive nerves.

TREATMENT. In the mild forms of acute catarrh, or coryza, only simple
treatment is required. A hot foot-bath on retiring at night, with a full
dose of Dr. Pierce's Compound Extract of Smart-weed, to produce free
perspiration will generally break up the attack. Should the discharge
from the nostrils continue, Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy should be freely
used four to six times each day, until the symptoms are controlled. In
case the bowels do not act, a full dose of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
may he taken at bed-time. Avoidance of exposure to cold, and light
vegetable diet, are advisable. In the more severe attacks, especially
when complicated by laryngeal or bronchial symptoms, the most decisive
measures should be employed. The Compound Extract of Smart-weed should
be taken freely, together with hot drinks, or a hot general bath. The
patient should be warmly covered in bed to encourage a continued
perspiration, to equalize the circulation, and subdue the inflammation.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should be taken in teaspoonful
doses four times each day in all cases that are complicated or
protracted.

Individuals suffering from frequent colds will do wisely to fortify
their systems by taking a few bottles of the "Golden Medical Discovery"
to improve nutrition, purify the blood, and thus aid nature in
overcoming such inherited tendency or required weakness as may be their
misfortune to possess. Remember frequent attacks of Acute Catarrh
prepare fertile soil for the chronic form which oftentimes is so
loathsome and destructive.

CHRONIC NASAL CATARRH.

OZAENA.

In consequence of repeated attacks of acute catarrh, or "cold in the
head," as it is usually termed, the mucous membranes of the nose and the
air-passages of the head become permanently thickened, the mucous
follicles or glands diseased, and their functions either destroyed or
