able 10 stale confidently that Consumption is
curable Sy inhalation, is 10 me a source of
unalloyed pleasure. II is as much under the
Go of medical treatment as any other
fofmidable edisesse; ninety out Of every hun

third Stage il is Impossible 10 save more than
five per cent, for The lungs are SO cut up BY
The disease as 10 bid defiance 10 medical
skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in.
halation affords extraordinary relief 10 the
suffering attending this fearful scourge, which
annually destroys ninety five thousand per.
sons in the United States alone; and correct
calculation shows that out of the present pop
ulaion of the earth, eighty millions are des-

Truly the qniver of death has no arrow so
fatal as Consumption. In all ages il has been
the great enemy of life, for it spares neither
age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave,

BY the help of that Supreme Being, from
whom comeh every good and perfect gift,
am enabled 10 offer 10 the afflicted a perma-
nent ard speedy cure in Consumption. The
| first cause of tubcrcles is from impure
blood and the immediate effect, produced
by their disposition in the lungs, is TO prevent
| the free omission of air into the air cells
which causes weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely il is more
rational 10 expect grea,er good from medi,
cnes entering the cavues of the lungs than
from those administered through the siom-
ach; The patient will always find the lungs
free and the breathing easy after inhaling
remedies. True, Inhalation is local
remedy, nevertheless ii acts constiulionally,
and with more power and certainty than rem
edieS administered by lhe stomach. To prove
the powerful and direct influence oil this
mode Of administration, chloroform inhaled
