The unprecedented success which has attend

and throat, has induced us to depart from our
usual course, and avail ourselves Of the columns
OF the Press in order to bring it to the kno

opinions Of tho past, may assert that even now
Consumption is inCurabe such arc behind the
ago. 10 all, this great truth must be apparent.
viz: that the medicines inhaled in the form Of
Vapor and Powder, directly into the lungs must
be much more cfectual than that taken into tho
Stomach, where the disease docs not exist.
The advantages Of Inhalation in consumption
and Throat Diseases is, that medicine in the form
OF Napor are applied directly to the lungs whore
the disease exists; the stomach is thus left free
to aid in restoring health by administering TO il
healthy, life-gying food. There is no case so
hopeless that Inhalation cannot reach! Tho
means too arc brought within the range Of all
the manner OF administering it being so simple
that tho patient is never required to leave home,
where the hand Of friendship or affection tend
so much to aid the physicians efforts.
The inholing method is soothing, safe and
speedy and consists in the administration of
medicines in such n manner that thew arc con.
voyed to the lungs in the form ofyapor, and pro-
duce their action at the seat Of the disease. Its
practical success is destined to revolutionizc tho
opinions of tho medical world, and establish the
entire durability Of Consumption.
