consignment, the following medicines, to wit:

1t is melancholy fact that Consumption
constitutes a large portion of our bills of NOR
talty, and forms one of the most crowded av-
enues to the tomb. The principal cause of the
mortality of ,his formidable disease may be
attributed to the peculiar character of Its pri-
mary symptoms. In its first stages, the pa
tipnt is seldom aware of the alOrmir G disease
that is fastening upon him; consequently no
remedial aid is sought until it is too late. Its
prelnomtory symptoms appear trlt1irg, hence
they are dlsregarteI until in their more full de-
velopement the victim Is alarmed, and strug-
giles in vain to elude the fatal grasp. The first
symptoms that should be taken as warning
are The following; VIZ:
A short dry cough without much expectora-
ton, except a frolhy mucus: an uneasness
about the chest, or sense Of pain when lying
on the side; pain under the breast bone; res
piraion is oppressed by the least extra bodily
cxerlon, and particularly in warm rooms, or
in moist weather. mental excitement and de-
lection, alternately; splitting Of blood is also IL
warning symptom Of approaching Consump-
ton. Colds freque ty epgender this disease;
The alarming symptom, in this case, is the con-
tinuatlon of the cough accompanied with some
of the above symptoms, any of which may be
observed perhaps for months before the patient
will acknowledge that he is so i'll as to require
attention. When indeed this is the most cri-
tical period, and if relief is not found, the
cough increases and is more troublesome and
severe, particularly at night; the expectora-
tion more cnpiuus, of a greenish color, sonie-
times tinged with blood; the laborious breath
ing and emaciation continue to increase; the
hectic flush is soon seen in the pae cheek ac-
companied by night sweats, &C.; the closing
scone is TOO WELL KNOWN,
For this Formidable disease the Pulmonary
Balsam is prepared and offered to the afflicted,
in connection with my Elixir Of Health and
Embrocatlon. The Balsam possesses the re-
quisite properties for healing and restoring the
lungs to q healthful state, while the Elixir
tends TO produce, invigorate and maint1in a
healthy action in the whole system, purifying
the blood and preparing the system so that ma
ture, by the aid of the Bnlsem and Elnbroca-
ton, may carry on and effect the healing pro-
cess. 1t is well known fact that wound
sore or ulcer cannot easily be healed or cured
without keeping the system in good order and
a healthful condition: hence the failure Of all
cough medicine for the cure of the Consump-
ton cough, this cough being only symptom
of diseased state of the lungs, can only be
permanently removed as they are restored to
sound stale. No one medicine can be relied
upon in diseased state of the lungs; but the
above meIiclnes, viz H. Eastmans Pulmonary
Balsam, Elixir Of Health and Embrocaton have
succeeded even in the apparent last stages Of
the Consumption.
Prepared and sold by II. EASTMAN, Drug
gist, Zlnesville, Ohio; where may be had in
addition to q general assortment of Drugs &
Medicines, the following valuable aud highly
important M dic;nes, viz. Natures Assistant
or the Females Own Medicine, for obstruc-
tions, &c.; Nerve Cordial, valuable medi-
cine for nervous debility, weakness, &c.; Spe.
cifc Embrocation, for spralns, Complaints,
Consumption, &c.
