is impossible TO save more than FIVE per cent
for The Lungs are so cut up by the disease as
to bid defiance to medical skill Even, hoss9
ever, in the last stages, Inhalation affords ex
traordinary relief to the suffering attending
this fearful scourge, which annually destroys
ninety five thousand persons in the Unitet
States alone; and correct calculation shows
that OF the present population of the earth,
eighty millions are destined 10 fill the con-
sumptive's graves.
Truly the quiver 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,
the beautiful, the graceful and the gifted. BY
the help of that Supreme Being from whom
cometh every good and perfect gift, am en-
abled to offer TO the afflicted permanent and
speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause
ot. tuberclcs is from impure blood, and the inn
mediate effect produced by their deposition
in the lungs is to prevent the free admission
of air into the air cells, which causes wca-
kened vitality through the entire system
| Then surely it is more rational 10 expect
greater good from medicines entering the
cavities of the lungs than from those admin
isiered through the stomach; the patient Will
always find the lungs free and the breathing
easy, after lnlialing remedies. Thus, lnha-
halation is a local remedy, nevertheless il acts
constitutionally, and With more power and
certainty than remedies administered by The
stomach. To prove the powerful and direct

the blood, \ convincing proof of The cousti-
| tutlonal effects OF Inhalation, is the fact that
sickness is always produced by breathing foul

remedies, carefully prepared and judiciousy
administered through the lungs should pro-
duce the happiest resuts! During eighteen
years practice, many thousands suffering
| from diseases of the lungs and throat, have
been under my care, and lave effected many
| remarkable cures, even after the sufferers
have been pronounced in the last stages,
which fully satisfies me that consumption is
no longer fatal disease NV treatment of
consumption is original and founded on long
experience and thorough investigations. My
perfect acquaintance with the nature of tuber-
c!es, &C., enables me TO distinguish, readily,
the various forms Of disease that simulate con-
sumption, and apply the proper remedies, rare-
| lyheing mistaken even in a single case. This
familiarity, in connection with certain patho-
logical and microscopic discoveries, enables
me to relieve the lungs from the effects of
contracted chests, TO enlarge the chest, puri-
fy the blood, impart to it renewed vitality,
giving energy and tone to the entire system.

part OF the United States and Canadas by pa

the patient should pay me visit, which
would give me an opportunity TO examine the
lungs and enable me to prescribe with much
greater certainly, and then The cure could be
effected without my seeing The patient gain.
