our country than that which is emphatIcally and
ruly called
CONSUMPTION.
One cause Of the incrcusc of consumption in
our country, is the change in dress and manner
ofliving. Sixty years ago people lived on com
mon simple healthy food and drink, and were
healthy. We find sometimes ap old person who
tells lis Of living upon bean p"rridgc, and other
focd equally simple. In days Of old the dress of
men and women was plain and suited to the eli
moto where they lived, and to the different sca-
sons of lhe year. At this time how different.
In addition TO thin dress, the clothes are tight,
the natural shape is crowded upon, and it is
sometimes hard for women to stoop or breathe
easy. A violent cold is taken, ii bad cough FOL
lows, symptoms Of consumption are feared and
mentioned, and at least il is seated, and the poor
fashionable daughter or wife is taken away by
what is called the
QUICK CONSU,NP7ION
1t should lie rcmmembcrcd that consumption
may certainly be cured as any other complaint;
frightly attended TO in season, and this by free
use of that popular medicine

OF llOARuOUND.
This never fails to remove the cmly cough and
cold, and leaves the System in a pure and heal
Thy state free not only from irritation upon the
lungs but by It's qualities as cathartic, purging

THIS IS THE SEASON
when great care cliould be taken Of our health
the system by the sudden changes of the atmos-
phcre becomes liable to attack. During the cir
culation Of the blood through the lungs, prin-
Clpe necessary TO the support Of life is absorbed
from the arr and various matters, the longer CON
tnuc Of which in the boGy would be noXious, arc
also discharged III iorm ofvrpor or gas
That there is besides no ucunsdcrablc guam
iity of aqueous llun sccretcd and discharged
irow the lungs, every person must be convinced
who has attended 10 the deposition of wdtery
particles that takes place from the breath on
frosty day. Of the whole quantity Of perspira-
bic matter discharged from the surface OF the
body i'll any given portion OF! time, that eXhalcd
from the surface o.. the lungs may be estimated
as amounting to the one third. The skin and
the lungs being both secrctng surfaces, must also
be considered organs mutually cOmpcnsatldg
or Iva ancing each other.
1.-THE akin bc suddenly chilled, Il larger share
of pcrspirablc matter will cndcavor to escape by
the lungs, as being an internal and therefore
warmer surface. 1t is not surprising that this
effect should III delicate organ bc productive
Of arrangement and disease, and accordingly we
daily hear people dating their first attack OF pull
monary complaints from sitting in Il cool place,
after having been ovcr-hcatcd, from being thor
oughy soaked with rain, Or from cold batling
III an improper state OF tic system.

at such times, when the system is attacked as
we have related, will if freely used be found the
most certain remedy to remove every particle OF
complaint, huarscncss, cough, every thing that
viii likely tend toward consumption.

There is a stoge which every disease reaches
when neglected, that is beyond all mortal cue
And Consumption is allowed TO reach this stage
ottcnar than amy other complaint, when at the
same time it gives ample warning of its ap-
proach, and its cure is certain.

about the person without the least Inconvenience,
and when the feet are wet or the system any
ways chilled, u stick or two should be used at
once.
