VNHERE is perhaps no medical observation
Il better established, none mere generally
confirmed by the experience of the best physI-
clan, OF all ages and countries, and none OF
more Importance to the human family, than
the fact that many of the most difficult and
incurable consumptions originate in neglect
ed colds. In . climate so variable as ours,
where the changes of the weather are ire
quently sunderland unexpected, 1t requires
more care and attention to guard against this
dangerous enemy of life, than most people
imagine, or are able and willing to bestow.-
The bills of mortality exhibit the melancholy
fact that the proportion of deaths by this dis
ease may be considered as about five to one.

ance to the skill ofthe most learned physicians.

enabled to offer to those afflicted with ia

with loss ofappetite, rest &c. Iapplied to Sc
veral eminent physicians, and passed through
a course of medicine, but could obtain no re-
lief, and found myselffas asst verging on to a con.
frmed consumption. Having at length heard

The celebrated DIR. Cullen has taught US
that sour first attention should be employed
in watching the approach of the disease and
preventing its proceeding to an incurabie
state; and in persons of a consumptive habit,
especially those born of c~onsumptive parents,
the slightest symptoms Of an approaching con
sumption at the ~consumptive period OF LIE,
ought carefully to be attended to-"
This Specific is obtained by extraction from
herbs, roots, flowers, plants, &c. when inper-
lection. In consequence of a happy combine
ton ofthe most valuable herbs, &c. It becomes
a balsam of superior value. Itheals the inlur'
ed parts, opens the pores and composes the
disturbed nerves after the manner Of an ano'
dyne; consequently the obstruction OF the
chest and the lungs which constitute this dis
ease, particularly need its use. 1t promotes
expectoration, which is constantly called tor;
and whilst it ~cleanses and heals, it also gives
strength to the tender lungs. In this manner
it removes the hectic fever, improves digess-
ton, gives strength to the nerves, repairs inc
appetite and improves the spirits. This spee'
ciic may always be given in safety-itismiia'
pleasant to the taste, and may safely be gwen
to infants, for which it is ofinestimable value

~whooping coughs, &c. and is found partcIisE'
ly u%sefulin hypochondrical, nervous and hys-
terical diseases. Each bill of directions cor,
