1t is a melancholy fact that Consumption
constitutes a large portion of our bills OF NOR
tally, and forms one Of the most crowdedav-
enues to the tomb. The principal cause of the
mortality of this formidable disease may be
attributed to he peculiar character of ITS pri-
mary symptoms. In its first stages, the pa,
tient is seldom aware of the alarming disease
that is fastening upon him; consequently no
remedial aid is sought until it is too late. Its
premon,tory symptoms appear trifing, hence
they are disregarded until in. their more full de-
veopement the victim is alarmed, and strug-
glesn vain to elude the fatal grasp. The first
symptoms that should be taken as warning
are the following; yiz:5s.t. srtss..a. = 20 {
A short dry cough without much expectora-
ton, except frothy mucus; an uneasiness
about the chest, Or a sense of pain'wlienlying
on the side: pain under the breast bone; res
piration is oppressed by the least extra bodily
exertion, and particularly in warm rooms, or
in moist weather: mental excitement and de-
lection, alternately; splitting of blood is also II
warning symptom of approaching Consump-
ton Colds frequently epgender this disease;
The alarming symptom, in this case, is the con-
tinuation 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 crit
id md IS raliof ;c
cough increases and is more troublesome and
severe, particularly at night. the expectora7
tion more copions, 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 pale cheek ac-
conpaned by night sweats, &C.; the closing
scene is TOO WE'LL KNOWN. !.
For this formdabies disease the Pulmonary
Balsamyis prepared and offered to- the afflicted,
in connection with my Elixir, Of Health and
EmbrocatIon. The Basam possesses the re-
quisite properties for healing and restoring the
ungs to healthful state, while the Elixir
tends to produce, invigorate and maintaina
healthy action in the whole system, purifying
The blood and preparing the system so that ma
ture, by the aid of the Balsams and Embroca-
tion, may carry on and effect the healing pro-
cess, It isa well known fact that a wound,
sore or nicer 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-
tion cough, this cough being only symptom
of a diseased state Of the lungs, can only, be,
permanently removed as they are restored to
a sound state No one medicine can be relied
upon Ii diseased state Of the lungs; but, the
above medicines, viz. H.. .Eastmans Pulmonary
Balsam, Elxirof Health and Embfocation have
succeeded even IN the apparent last stages Of
the Consumption. ast
