IMPORTANT DISCOVEY,
CONSUMPTION
AND ALL
DISEASES OF THE LUNGS g. THROAT
CAN BE
Cured by Inhalation,

(WHICH conveys the remedies to the cavities
w OF the lungs through the air passages and COM
ing in direct contact with the disease neutraizes
the tubercular matter aiiays the cough, causes a
free and easy expectoration, heats the lungs puri
fies the blood, imparts renewed vitality to the
nervous system, giving that tone and energy so IN
dspensable for the restoration of health To be
able to state confidently that Consumption Is GU
rable by Inhalation is 20 ne source Of unalioyed
pleasure. II is as much under the control of metii-
cal treatment as any osher formidable disease
ninety out of every hundred cases can be cured IN
the first stages and fifty per cent III the second but
in the third stage it Is Is impossible to more than
1--WE per cent for the lungs are so cut up by the dis
ease TO bid defiance to medical skill. Even.
however, IN the last stages, inhalation affords ex
traor,inary relief to the suffering attending this
fearftl scourge,'whch annually destroys ninety-tive
thousand persons in the United States alone; and
correct calculation shows that of the present pop
ulation Of the earth, eighty millions are destined
10 fill the Consumptive's grave,
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so fatal
as Consumption. In all ages 1t has been the great
enemy of life, for it spares neither age nor sex, but
sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful the grace
ful and gifted. By the help of that supreme being
from whom coIneth every good and perfect gift l
enabled to offer to the afflicted permanent and
speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause Of tu-
berces Is from impure blood. and the immediate ef
feet produced by their disposition in the lungs Is to
prevent the free admission Of air into the air cells
which causes weakened vitality through the entire
system. Then surely il Is more rational 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 nilng remedies
Thus, inhalation is local remedy, nevertheless 1t
acts constitutiOnally, and with more power and Ger
tanty than remedies administered by the stomach,
To prove the powerful and direct influence OF tins
mode of administration, chorotorm Inhaled Will en
tirely destroy sensbilitY IN few minutes, paralyz

the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in few
hours.
The inhalation of ammonia VIII rouse the system
when fainting apparently dead. The odor of
many of many of the medicines perceptible in the
skin S few minutes after being inhaled and may be
Immediately detected in the blood. A convincing
proof of the constitutional effects of Inhalation Is the
fact that Sickness is always produced by breathing
foul airs his not positive evidence that proper
remedies carefully prepared and judiciously admin
istered through the lungs should produce the hap
piest results During eighteen years practice many
thousands suffering from disease of the lungs and
throat, have been under my care, and have effect
ed remarkable cures, even after the sufferers
had 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 on long experience and thorough ii
vestigaton. My perfect acquaintance with the ma
ture of tubercles, DC, enables me to distinguish
readily, the various forms of diseases that simulate
consumption, and apply the the proper remedies
rarely being mistaken even in a single case. This
familiarity in coOunection with certain pathological
and microscopic discoveries. enables To relieve
the lungs from the effects of contracted chests TO
enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it
newed vitality, giving energy and tone to the en-
tire system.
Medicines with full directions sent to any part OF
the United States and Canada, by patients commu-
nicating their symptoms by letter But the cure
would be more certain If ,he patient should paw me
visit, which would give an opportunity to exam
Inc the lungs, and enable me to prescribe with much
greater certainty, and then the could be effect
ed without my seeing the patient again All let
