W is none so universal and atlhe same time so in
sidous and fatal as Consumption. In this country
especially Pulmonary Consumption is emphatical-
ly a Scourge, and in its resistEess career sweeps
DER the land as destroying Angel, laying low
with relentless hand the strongest and fairest of
our race! Hitherto all efforts 10 arrest this dread
disease have proved vain, and all that seemed
within our power was at beststhe alienation of
suffering, rendering somewhat smoother the GER
tain progress to the tomb
The proprietor in offering this preparation to
the public would embrace the opportunity to state
upon what grounds it puts forthits merits, and the
reasons upon which it POUNDS It's superior claims
to the attention of the afflicted, that all who re-
quire its use may repose full confidence in its GU
fative powers. Since its first preparation he has
had the pleasure of Witnessing its happy results
in numerous instances; but he was determined
not to offer it to the public until he had become
thoroughly convinced of its efficacy. He now
confidently offers it remedy toithota parallel
for the cure of PULMONARY CONSUMPTION
and its kindred diseases.
CONSUMPTION of tu6erculouS character
from time immemorial has been deemed incurdble
and considering its frequency and fatality, it is
notsurprising that new remedies and new systems
of treatment should from time to time be brought
under the notice of the profession and the public
Almost every organic and inorganic substance, in
an endless round of combination, has been used
with the hope of checking this seourge OF our race,
many doubtless believing that in the progress OF
medical knowledge, we shouldn't last obtain the
mastery over Consumption; and, in the use of
the Compound Syrup of Tar and
Wood N:updA,sa, this object is happily attained.
The therapeutic agents employed in the compo-
siton of this remedy such as enable it to pre-
uert the secretion Of tuberculoS matter IN the lungs
and to cause its resolution and absorption after
deposit has commenced, an object achieved by
other medicine, and the Importance of which the.
professional man will at once perceive, since it
brings this form of disease, hitherto pronounced
hopeless, entirely aoithin control. The success
which has attended the administration ofthis pre-
paration is unparalleled In The records of medical
science, in confirmation of which, the proprietor
would ask careful perusal of the statements of
a few of those who have been restored to health
by its powerful agency.
Let the following speak for itself:
81 have used Thompson's Compound Syrup of
Tar and Wood Naptsa for some time in my prlc
rfCe, ana nave found IL the most efficient remedy
have ever used in Consumptive cases, chronic
catarrh, &c, when great irritabiity, with weak
Hess OF tHe pulmonary organs, existed. ne T6-
Pidaty with which it acts is greatly in its favor
where dyspnoea or oppression exists, which is i'm
mediately relieved by it.
:" In Pulmonary Consumption it can be used
with confidence, being applicable 10 every form OF
that disease, and | consider it a medicine well
worthy the attention of physicians, and exempt
from the imputation of empiricism.
