IMP RTANT DISCOVERY
CONSUMPTION d
AND ALL r
Diseases Of the Lungs and Throat
ARE POSITIVELY


Which conveys the remedies 10 the cavities
IN the lungs through the air passages, and
coming in direct contact with the disease,
nc utraizes the tubercular matter. aIlays the
cough causes free and easy expectations
meals the lungs, Durifes the blood, impart-
renewed vitality to the nervous system, give
ing that tone and energy so indispensable for
the restoration Of health. To be able to state
confidently that Consumption is durable be
inhalation, is 10 me source of unalloyed
pleasure. 1t is much under the control of
medical treatment as any other formidable
disease; ninety ont of every hundred cases
can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per
cent. in the second; but in the third stage ii
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, hov@
ever, in the last stages, Inhalation affords ex-
traordnary relief TO the suffering attending
this fearful scourge, which annually destroys
nnety-hve thousand persons in the United
States alone; and correct calculation shows
that OF the present population Of the earth,
eighty millions are destined 10 fill the con-
sumptvcs 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 frs, cause
OF tuberclcs is from impure blood, and the i'm
mediate effect produced by their deposition
in the lungs is To prevent the free admission
of air into the air cells, which causes a wea-
kened vitality through the entire system
Then surely it is more rational TO expect
greater good from medicines entering the
cavities of the lungs than from those admin
lstered through the stomach; the patient will
always find the lungs free and the breathing
easy, after lnhaling remedies. Thus, lnha-
halation Is local remedy, nevertheless II acts
constitutionally, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administered by the
stomach. To prove the powerful and direct
influence of this mode of administration, chlo-
reform inhaled will entirely destroy SENSIBLE
Ity IN few minutes, paralyzlng the entire
nervous system, so that a limb may be ampu-
tated without the slightest pain; inhaling the
ordinary burning gas will destroy life in
few hours.
The inhalation Of ammonia will rouse tho
system when talntlng or apparently dead
The Odor of many of the medicines is percep-
tIbie in the skin few minutes after being in
ha led, and may be Immediately detected in
the blood, A convincing proof Of the cOnsti-
tutIonal effects of inha alatIOn, Is the fact that
sickness is always produced by brea thing foul
airs not this positive evidence that proper
remedies, carefully prepared and judcously
administered through the lungs should pro-
duce the happIest results! During eighteen
years practice, many thousands suffering
from diseases of the lungs and throat, have
been under my care, and have 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. My treatment of
consumption is original, and founded OH long
experience and a thorough investigation. My
perfect acquaintance with the nature oftuber
cles, &c, enables me 10 distinguish, readily
the various forms ofdisease that simulate con-
sumption, and apply the proper remedies, rare
lybeing 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-
fly the blood, mpart to it renewed vitality,
giving energy and tone to the entire system.
Medicines with full directions sent TO any
part of the United States and Canadas by pa
tients communicating their symptoms by let
ter. But the cure would be more certain il
the patient should pay me visit, which
would give me an opportunity TO examine the
lungs and enable me to prescribe with much
greater certainty, and then the cure could be
effected without my seeing the patient again.
