Free expectoration is the most important OBJ
Ject to be attained In an attemptsto diseas-
es,ef the chest and lungs. The cough which is
so distressing is simply the result of desire to
expectorate; and as long as foul matter exists
in the air passages, it will continue to irfitate
the membrane and provoke cough. Cough
ing is an attempt to throw off this matter, and
eKpectoration gives great relief, inability to ex
pectorate in the latter stages of consumption Is
the cause of death. TO- 81 - ----' = -'1,---
