DISEASES Of the LUNGS and THROAT

rous system, giving that tone and energy 30 iuds-
pensabe for the restoration Of health TO BE- able TO
state confidently that Consumption Is durable by IN
halation, is 10 me of unaoycd pleasure. II
is MS much under the control Of medical treatment
as any other formidable disease ninety out Of every
hundred cases be cured 10 the first stages and
fifty per cent in the second but in the third stage
il is impossible 10 save more than FIVE per cent 'or
the Lungs cut up by the disease as 10 bid de-
fance 70 medical skill--Even however in the last
stages, Inhalation affords extraordinary relief 10 the
suffering attending this feaful scourge which annu-
ally destroys ninety-ive thousand persops in the
United States alone and rect calculation shows
that Of the present populat Of the GARTH eighty
millions are destined to ill the Consumptives grave
Truly the CULVER Of death has arrow so fatal as
Consumption. In all ages il has been the great
enemy OF life, for spares neither age sex but
sweeps of alike The brave the beautiful the grace
ful and the gifted. BY the help of that Supreme
Being rom whom cometh every good and perfect
gift, am enabled 10 offer TO the afflicted permanent
and speedy cure IN Consumption. The first cartse OF
tubercles Is from impure blood, and The immediate
effect produced by their deposition IN the lungs il 10
prevent the free admission OF air into the air cells
which causes weakened vitality through The entire
ystem. Then surely tits more rational to expect
good from medicines entering the cavities Of the lungs
Than from those administered through the stomach;
tho patient will always find the lungs free and the
breathing easy, after nhaling remedies, Thus, In.
baIution Is local remedy, nevertheless u nets con-
stitutionay, and with power and certainty than
remedies administered by the stomach. To prove
the powerful and direct influence Of this mode OF adj
minisrtion, chloroforn inhaled will entirely destroy
sensbiliy in . few minutes, paralyzing the entire
nervous system, so that LIMB may be ampuiated
without tho slightest pain; inhang the ordinary
burning gas will destroy life in few hours
Tie Inhalation Of ammonia win ronse the system
when fainfng or apparently dead. The odor Of many
Of the medicines e perceptible in the skin few
minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediate
IL detected in the blood "A nvinoing proof Of the
constitutional effects OF inhalation, is the fact that
sickness Is always produced by breathing foul air
u this not positive evidence that proper remedies
carefully prepared and judiciously administered
through the lungs should produce Che bappest re-
sultsf 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 after the sufferers had been
pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies
me chat consumption Is no longer fatal disease. Ny
treatment Of consumption Is original, and founded
