!. AND ALL
Diseases of the LUNGS and THROAT
CAN RE
CURED BY INHALATION. s.


Which conveys the remedies to the cavities
n the lungs, through the air passages, and COM
ing in direct contact with the disease, ncutrali-
zes the tubercular matter, allays the cough, cau-
ses free and easy expcctoration, heals the
lungs, pufftes the blood, imparts renewed vital
ity 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 cutab!e by inhalation, is to me
a source of unalloyed pleasure. II is as much
under the control of medical treatment rs any
other formidable disease; ninety out of every
hundred cases can be cured in the first stages,
and fifty per cent in the second; but in the third
stage il l. 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 scourgc, which annually destroys ninety
five thousand persons in the United States alone
aud correct calculation shows that of the pres
cnt population of tue earth, eighty millions are
destined to ill the Consumptiye's grave.
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so IA
tai as Consumption, In aIl ages it has been the
great enemy OF life, for it spares neither age nor
sex, but sweeps on alike the brave. the beautiful
the graceful and the gifted. BY the help OF
that Supreme Being from whom cometh every
good aud perfect gift, am enabled TO offer TO
the afflicted 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 to
prevent the free admission of air into the air
cells, which causes a weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely it is more IA.
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 inhalng remedies. Thus,

consttutionally, and with more power and GER

ach. To prove the powerful and direct inhu-

of Inhalation. l. the tact that sickness is always
produced by breathing foul airs this not pos.
tive evidence. that proper remedies, carefully
prepared and judciousy administered through
the lnrrSs should produce the happicst results :
During eighteen Years practice many thousands
suffering from diseases OF the lungs aud throat
have been under my care, and have Effected
many remarkable cures. even after the sufferers
had been pronounced ia the last stages, which
iully satisfies me that consumption is no longer
a fatal disease. Ny treatment OF consumption
Is original, and founded on long experience and
a thorough investigation. Ny perfect acquan-
tancc with the nature of tubercleS. &c, enables

disease that simulate consumption, and apply

even IN single case. 1h, familiarity, ia con-
ncction with certain pathological aud micros-
