tenn. giving that tone and energy so indis-
pensable for the restorative Of health. To be
able 10 stole confidently that Consumption is
durable Sy inhalation, is TO me a source OF
unalloy ed pleasure. II is as much under the
control Of medical treatment as any other
formidable disease; ninety out of every hun
dred cases can be cured in the first stages,
and fifiy per cent. in the second; but in the
third Stage il is impossible 10 save more .han
five per cent, for lhe lungs are so cot up by
The disease as 10 bid defiance 10 medical
skill. Even, however. in the last stages, in.
halation affords extraordinary relief TO the
suffering a,endirg this fearful scourge, which
annually destroys ninety five thousand per.
sors in The United States alone; and correc,
calculation shows that oul of The present pop
ula,ion OF the earth, eighty millions are dec
tined TO fill the consumpuve's grave.
Truly The quiver of death has no arrow so
fatal as Consumption. In all ages il has been
the great enemy of life, for ii spares neither
age nor sex, but sweeps of alike The brave,
t6e beautiful, the graceful, and ltaRgiled.-
By the help of that Supreme Being, from
whom come,h every good aud perfect gift,
ain enabled 10 offer to the afflicted pefma-
nent ard speedy cure in Consumption. The
first cause of tubercles is from impure
Hood. and the immediate effect, produced
by their disposition in the lungs, is 10 prevent
the free admission Of air into The dir cells,
which causes a weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely II Is more
rational 10 expect greater good from nedis
cines ente ring The cavities of the lungs than
from those administered through The SOM
acb: the patient will always find the lungs
free aud the breathing easy after inhalina
remedies. True, inhalation Is local
remedy. nevertheless II acts constilutoGaliy,
and with more power and certainty Than rem-
edies administered by The stomach. To prove
the roweiinl and direct Influence oil this
mode Of administration, chloroiorm inhaled

The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the |

The odor of many OF the medicines is per.
cep,ible in the skin u few minutes after being |
inhaled, and may be Immediately detected
in Ihe blood. a convincing proof OF the
constitutional effects OF inhalation, is the fact
that sickness is always produced by breath
ing foul air. Is no, this positive evidence
,ha, proper remedies, careiully prepared and
iudclously administered through The lungs,
should produce the most happy results Du-
ring eighteen years practice, many thous-
ands. suffering from diseases OF the lungs
and throat, have teen under my care, aud |
have affected many remarkable cures, even

the last stages, which fully satisfies me that

My treatment of consumption IS original, and
founded on long experience aud thorough
My perfect acquaintance with
the nature Of iuhercles, &c, enables me TO
distinguish readily the various forms OF dis
ease that simulate consumption, and apply

even in single case, This familiarity in
connection with certain Pathological and mi.
croscopc discoveries, enables ne 10 relieve
Ihe Lungs from the effects OF contracted chests;
