| INHALATION IN CONSUMPTION.
| BRONCHITIS, LARYNGITES and other Disease
ID of the Chest and Throat, successfully treated b,
the Inhalation of Nedicated Vapo,s and Porders
BY absorption and constitutional treatment, as prac
ticed at the "Stuyvescent Medical Institute" New
York city.
The unpreceaented success which has attended thi:
method of treating diseases Of the Lungs and Throat
has induced US to depart from our usual course and
avail ourselves Of the Press, in order to bring it to
the knowledge Of such may be laboring under, OF
predisposed to such affections.
The dawn of a brighter day has at length arrived
for the Consumptive. The doctrine of the incura-
bility of Consumption has at length passed away. We
have ndubitabe proofs in our possession, that Con-
sumption in all its stages be cured; in the first,
by tuberealar absorption in the second by the
Transformation of ,befee into ehalky and calcerons
conevetioa in the third by ccatrces or scdrs Those
welded to the past may assert that even now Con-
sumption is incurable such are behind the age To
all this this great truth must be apparent, viz that
medicine inhaled in the form of Vapor or Powder
directly into the Lungs must be much more eifectual
than that taken into the Stomach, where the disease
does not exist.
The advantage of Inhalation in Consumption and
Throat diseases is, that medicines in the form of
Vapor are applied directly to the Lungs where the
disease exists the stomach is thus left free to aid
in restoring health, by administering to it healthy
life giving food.
THERE is NO CASE SO HOPELESS,
that Inhalation will not reach The means, too
brought within the reach of all, the administering
the vapors being simple that the invalid is never
required to leave home, where the hand of friend
ship and affection tends SO much to aid the phys-
clans efforts.
The Inhaling method is soothing, safe and speedy
and consists in the administration Of medicine in
such manner that they conveyed into the Lungs
in the form Of vopor, and produce their action at the
.eat Of the disease Its practical success is destined
to revoutonize the opinions Of the medical world
and establish the entire durability of consumption.
