Diseases of the LUNGS and THROAT
CAN BE
CURED BY INHALATION

CURED By INHALATION.
Which conveys the remedies to the cavities
n the lungs, through the air passages, and COM
ing in direct contact with the disease ncurraii-
yes the tubcrcuar matter, allays the cough, eau
ses free and easy expectoration, heals the
lungs, purifies the blood, imparts renewed vital
ty to the nervous system giving that tone and
energy so indispensable for the restoration Of
health. To be able to state confidently that
Consumption is curablc by inhalation, is to me
source of unaloycd pleasure. 1t is as much
under the control of medical treatment as any
other formidable disease; ninety out oi every
hundred cases can be cured in the FIRST stages,
and fifty per cent in the second; but in the third
stage it 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, how.
ever, in the last stages Inhalation affords extra
ordinary relief to the suffering attending this
fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety
five thousand persons in the United States alone
and a correct calculation shows that Of the pres
ent population of the earth, eighty millions are
destined to fill the Consumptiyc's grave.
Truly the quver Of death has no arrow so IN.
tai as Consumption. Ia all ages it has been tho
great enemy Of life, for il spares neither age nor
sex, but sweeps of alike the brave. the beautiful
the graceful ard the gifted. BY the help Of
that Supreme Being from whom cosncth every
good and perfect gift, am enabled to offer to
the afflicted a permanent and speedy cure in
Consumption. The first cause of tubcrcles Is
from impure blood, and the immediate effect
produced by their deposition in the lungs is 10
prevent the" free admission of air into the air
cells, which causes a weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely il is more ra-
tional to expect greater good from medicines
entering the cavities of the lungs than from
those administered through the stomach the
patient will always find the lungs free and the
breathing easy, after inhaling remedies. Thus,
Inhalation is a local remedy nevertheless il acts
constitutionaly, and with more power and Ger.
tainty than remedies administered by the stom-
ach. To prove the powerful and direct inhu-
cnce OF this mode OF administration, chlorofom
inhaled will entirely destroy scnsibility in few
minutes, paralyzng the entire nervous system,
~ that limb may bc amputatcd without the
slightest pain nhaling the ordinary burning
gas will destroy life in a few hours.
The Inhalation of ammonia will rouse the
system when taintinE or apparently dead. The
odor OF many Of the medicines is pcrcCp;iblc
in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled.
and may be Immediately detected in the blood.
n convincing proof OF the constitutional effects
"i lnhalntion. a. the fact that sickness is always
produced by breathing foul air--is this not pos
tive evidence that proper remedies, carefully
prepared and jadtciouslv administered through
the trngs should produce the happicst results
During eighteen years practice many thousands
suffering from diseases OF the lungs and throat,
nave been under my care, and have effected
many remarkable cures, even after the sufferers
had been pronounced in the last stages, which
iuliy satisfies me that consumption is no longer
fatal disease. Ny treatment of consumption
Is original, and founded on long experience and
thorough investigation. Ny perfect acquain-
lance with the nature Of tubercies, &c, enables
me to distinguish. readily, the various forms Of
disease that simulate consumption, and apply
the proper remedies, rarely being mistaken
even IN single case. This familiarity, in con-
hection with cer:an pathological aud micros.
copic discoveries enables me to relieve the
iengs from the effects Of contra cted chests. to
enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart TO il
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.
ucnts communicating their symptoms by letter.
But the cure would be more certain if the
patient should pay me VISIT which would give
an opportunity TO examine tue lungs, and enable
me to prescribe with much greater certainty,
and then the cure could be effected without INV
seeing the patient again. All letters asking
acvicc must contain postage stamp.
