ly treated by the Inhalation of Medioa,ed yapors

mont, as prac,ised at tho Stuyvescant Medical
Institute, New York City. Diseases of the heart
and Liver, Female Complaints, Dyspepsia, Vea-
eroal affections. and Chronic Diseases generally
will receive the attention of the Physicians to
whom such case may have been especially en-
trusted.
The unprecedented success which has attend
ed this method OF treating diseases of tho lungs
and throat, has induced us to depart from our
usual course, and avail ourselves OF the columns
OF the Press in order to bring II TO the knowIedu
OF such as may be laborng under, or predspos-
ed to such affections. The dawn OLA brighter
day has at length arrived for the Consumptye {;
the doctrine Of the incurabiIity Of Co nsump pit
having at length passed away. We have indu-
bitable proofs in our possession that
Consumption In all Stages can be Cured.
In the first, by tubercular absorption; in the
second by the transformation OF tubercule into
chalky and calcarcous concreiions /; in the third
bp clcatures, or scars. Those welded to the
opinions OF the past, may assert that even now
Consumption is incurabIe; such are behind the
age. TO all this great truth must be apparent,
viz: that the medicines inhaled in the form Of
Vapor and Powder, directly into the lungs, mns,
be much more cilcctua than that taken into the
Stomach, where the disease does not exist.
The advantages Of Inhalation in consumpt on
and Throat Diseascsis, that medicine in the form
ofNapor areapp!Iod directly to the lungs where
the disease exists; the stomach is thus left free
to aid in restoring health by administering to il
healthy, liie-giying food. There is no case 80
hopeless that Inhalation cannot reach! The
means too are brought within the range Of all /,
the manner OF administering it being so simple
that the patient is never required to leave home :,
where the hand Of friendship or affection tend
so much To aid the physicians efforts. ..
The inhaling method is soothing, safe and
speedy and consists in the administration Of
medicines in such ii manner that they are con-
yeyed TO the lungs in the form Of apor, and pro-
duce their action at the seat of the disease. Its
practical success is destined to reyolutonize The
opinions of the medical world, and establish the
entire durability OF Consumption.

afflicted with lung diseases, to embrace at once
the advantages of inhalation a place amongst
the priceless gifts that nature and art hath given
