pensable for the restoration of health TO be able to
state confidently that Consumption is durable by in
halation, is to me source OF unaoyed pleasure 1t
is as much under the control of medical treatment
I'D any other formidable disease ninety out of every
hundred cases can be cured in the first stages and
nfy per cent IN the second; but in the third stage
NJ is impossible TO save more than five mel, cent for
the Lungs are cut up by the disease as to bid de-
nance TO medical skill Even, however in the last
stages inhalation affords extraordinary relief to the
sanerng attending this feaiul scourge, which annu-
ally destroys ninety-fiye thousand persons in the
United States alone and CT rrect calculation shows
that OF the present population of the earth, eighty
millions are destined to fill the Consulnptive's grave.
Truly the culver 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 on alike the brave the beautiful the grace

Beng from whom cometh every good and perfect
gh, am enabled TO offer TO the afflicted permanent
ana speedy cure IN Consumption. The first cause of
tubercles IS from impure blood, and the immediate
effect produced by their deposition in the lungs is to

Inc inhalation OF ammonia will rouse the system

constitutional effects of inhaIaon is the fact that
sickness Is always produced by breathing foul air
Is this not positive evidence that proper remedies,
carefully prepared and judiciously administered
through the lungs should produce the happiest re-
suits? During eighteen years practice many thou
sands suffering from diseases Of the lungs and throat
have been under my care, and have effected many
remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had been
pronounced in the last stages which fully satisfies
me that consumption is no longer fatal disease My
Treatment oi consumption is original, and founded
on long experience and thorough investigation
MY perfect acquaintance with the nature OF tuberces
&c., enables me TO distinguish readily the various
forms oil disease that simulate consumption and ap-
