DRONCHTTAS, Larygitis and other diseases of
ID the Chest and Thrnt, successfully treated by
the Inhalation of Medical Napors and Powders, by
absorption and constitutional treatment, prac
ticed at the Stuyvesant Medical Institute, New
York.
The unprecedented which has attended
this method Of treating diseases of the lungs and
throat, has induced Us to depart from our usual
course, and avail ourselves of the columns Of the
Press, in order to bring to the knowledge Of such
a may be laboring under, or predisposed to such
affections The dawn Of brighter day has arriv-
ed for the Cons,mpive; the doctrine of the ncura-
bility Of Consumption having at length passed
away. We have indubitable proofs in our posses
sion, that Consumption, an all ITS stages be
cured,-in the first, by tubercular absorptons; in
the second, by the transformation of tbercale into
chalky and calcerous concretions; i'm the third, by
ccatriceg scars. Those welded to the opinions
of the past may assert, that consuln ption
is incurabe; such are behind the age. To all this
great truth must be apparent. viz that the meCi-
cine inhaled in the form of Eapor or Powder. di-
ectly into the lungs, must bc oifectual than
that taken into the stomach, where the disease
does not exist. The advantage of inhalation in
consumption and throat diseases is, that medicine
in the form of vapor are applied directly to the
lungs, where the disease exists; the stomach thus
left free to aid in restoring by administering to it
healthy hfe-giving food. There is case hope-

are brought within the reaah Of all the manner of
administering the Napors being so simple that the
invalid is never required to leave home where the
hand of friendship and affection tends SO much to
aid the physicians efforts.
The nhaling method is SootLipg safe and x,ec,Iy

afflicted with lung diseases to embrace at the
advantages of inhalation; and no longer apply me-
