Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me
a source of unalloycd pleasure. IL is rs much
under the control of medical treatment as any
other formidable disease; ninety out of every
hundred cases can be cured in the first stages
and fifty per cent i'll the second; but in the third
stage il is impossible TO SAKE more than five per
cent; for the lungs are so cut up by the disease
as to bid defiance to medical skin. Even, how
ever, 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 :;
