medical treatment as any other formidable

ever in the last stages, Inhalation affords eX-
tra0rdinary relief to the suffering attending

nnety-fyc thousand persons in the United
States alone and d correct calculatiQn shows

Truly the culver Of death has no arrow so
fatal rs Consumption. In all ages it has been
! the great enemy OF life, for it spares neither
age nor sex, but sweeps OF alike the brave,
tn. beautiful, the graceful and the gifted. By
the help Of that Supreme Being from whom
cometh every good and perfect gift, | am en-
ahbled to offer to the afflicted a permanent
and speedy cure in Consumption. The first
cause OF tubcrcles is from impure blood, and
the immediate effect produced by their depo-
sitiou in the lungs is to prevent the free ad-
mission Of air into the air cells, which causes
n weakened vitality through the entire system.

remedies administered by the stomach. To
