DRONCHlTlS, Laryngitis and other diseases OF
inhalation of Medical yapors and Powders by a6sorpt
ion and constitutional treatment aspractised at the

method OF treating diseases of the Lungs and Throat
has induced to depart from usual course, and
avail ourselves of the columns of the Press in order
bring to the knowledge of such as may be laborng
under, or predisposed to such affections. The dawn
brighter day has arrived for the Copsumptive the
doctrine OF the ncurabity of Consumption having at
length passed away. We have indubitable proofs in
our possession, that Consumption, IN all its stages,

in the secoLd by the transformation OF tubercule into
chalky and calcare0us in the third by cca
trices Those welded to the opinions OF the
past may assert, that even now, Consumption is in.
curable such behind the age. To ALL this great
truth must be apparent, viz that the medicine in
hailed Ill the form OF Vapor or Powder directly into
the Lungs, must be more eff cual than that taken in
to the stomach, where the disease does not exist
The advantage Of inhalation i'll Consumption and
Throat Diseases is that medicines in the form Of va
por applied directly TO the lungs, where the dis

The inhaling method is So thing safe, aud spec
