The success Of the new system Of {ndd!d-
ton in the treatment Of Consumption, is
without parallel ia the history of medicine,
Every other system, heretofore introduced,
has seemed to do but little in arresting the
terrible fatality from this disease. The fire.
quent accounts of the great success attend.
ing the practice Of Dr. HARTMAN are truly
gratifying, and prove him an able demon
strator Of The new system. DR.. II. is u
highly educated Physician; was for long
. time Physician to the Cincinnati Marine
Hospital, ard is highly recommended by the
medical Profession If that city. He treats
diseases Of the Lungs upon the same prin-
ciples, so successfully adopted by DR.. Hun
ter and Fitch, of New York; by the Inhala-
tion of medicated vapors into the Lungs, thus
bringing medicines into direct contact with
the seat of diseqse. If there is any cure for
Consumption, it seems most reasonable that
this course would succeed, for it seems to
strike at the very root of the evl.-Irum-
bUH Democrat.
We clip the above from the Democrat
with a view of directing public attention to
what has strong claims to be rational
mode Of treatment for Diseases Of the
Lungs. Inhalation is at present attracting
the earnest attention of the Public and Pro-
fessional men throughout the United States;
and its claims to public confidence would
seem to be we'll founded. Physicians who
devote all their time and attention to the
study and treatment Of Lung Diseases, are
certainly deserving of encouragement, and
the afflicted cannot too highly appreciate
such laudable efforts to stay the .desoluting
mortality attending diseases of the Lungs.
Dr.. HARpMAN is specialist, devotlng his
entire attention to this class of affections
In hasty perusal of bis published letters or
"ths treatment OF Lung Diseases by Inhala
tom" we have been much interested, as
we'll as pleased with the views advanced
and shall probably, at no distant day, re
publish them for the benefit of our readers
Information of such vital Importance to th'
afflicted, should not be withheld from th'
public.-W. r. Chronicle.
The foregoing articles taken from th'
dHu OL OHtI1oj olO WoiIby VI ol
tention. Or. HARDMAN now visits Raven
ma every month, and those who are aft1cte
with difficulties pertaining to the lungs vii
have ar opportunity to call and consult wit
him and learn more of his theory and prac
tice. 1t is an unwelcome truth, that Con
sumption is carrying away its victims b
thousands in our country, annually. Man
are falling even in our own midst. If an
sure remedy can be asceftained by whic
this destroyer can be stayed, it is certainl
blessing which cannot be too highly pria
ed. So far as we can learn of the mode G
practice adopted by DR.. HARDMAN, it ha
been very successful wherever used, and
attracting attention in gil parts of the cour
try. 1t seems to be based upon true Philos
ply, and is worthy of careful attention,

DR.. HARDMAN treats Consumption! Bronchitis,
Asthma, Laryngs, and all diseases of the throat and
Lungs by Medcated inhalation. The great point in the
treatment of all Human maadies is to get at the dis
case in direct manner XII medicines are estimated
by their action upon the organ requiring relief. This
is the important fact upon which Inhalation Is based
fthc stomach is diseased we take medicine directly
into the stomach If the lungs diseased breathe or
inhae medlcacd vapors directly into the lungs. IN
reason why consumption and other diseases of the
lungs have heretofore resisted all treatment, has been
because they have been approached in direct
manner by medicine. They were Intended to act upoT
tho diseased lungs and yet were applied to the stoT
ach! Their action intended to be local, andi'
they were so admin tered that they could only acton
sttu!onally, spending their immediate action upon
the unotending ach whilst the foul ulcers within
the lungs were unabated!
INHALATION brings the medicine in direct contact
with the disease, without the disadvantage of any vio'
lent action. Its application is simple, 1t may be
used by the youngest infant and feobles invalid. 1t
does not derang5 the stomach or Interfere in the least

THE attention of consumptive invalids is
i called to the system Of medical treatment intro
duceA at this Institution, and now being employed in
the bure and the various diseases o inc Lungs
and Throat, and also to the success attending it.
During the past two years nearly two THOUSAND cases
of Consumption in its different stages have been treat
ed with the successful results fact that claims
for the method hero employed your candid considera
ti0n.
The SYSTEM OF MEDICAL TREATMENT PRESENTED YOU
CONSISTS EssENTIALLy IN THE INTRODUCTION OF @EDleA
TED vAPoRs INTO THE LUNGS, WHILE NO MEDICINES ARE
GIVEN INTO TIE SroM ORGAN BEING PRESERVED
FOR FoOD, AND NOT PHYsIc ,,t
The only method he retofure employed for the cure
of diseases has been directly the of
this medicines being introduced into the stomach, and
not into the Lungs. By this treatment Consumption
has not been cured nor its mortality lessened; and 1t
is now being abandoned by many prominent medical
men in this country and tn Europe.
Il hcannot be denied that the old practice Is false in
theory and fatal in its effects, and that any consump
tive person will live longer and suffer less oy dlscard-
ing il altogether.
The various medical vapors here used, are admins
liond to be irhaled and placed in small glass globe,
with an elastic tube attached, ana the ar Irawh
through tho sponge enters the the natural tenn
perat ure. charged with the vapor used The Inhaler
Is convenient and the method differs widely from the
old plan of inhang medicines from hot water, which
was years since thrown aside by Its advocates as
Consumption. Bronchitis, Asthma, etc., are each
treated by remedies appropriate to the character and
stage of the disease as it appears. ,L-,
Diseases Of the Throat and Catarrh are readily cured
by local applications, made by means of ShoWering
(Silve syrenges which have iaS which can
be used by patients with ease and safety ,
By this treatment, which is now being adopted by
many physicians in different parts Of the country ana
by them acknowledged to be the only correct method
of treating diseases of the Lungs, many permanent
cures of Consumption have been effected and % in nc every
instance marked benefit has been derived. I0 inc con-
