Des of the Chest and Throat successfully treat.
ed by the Inhalation of Medicated yaPors and
Powders by absorption and constitutional treat,
ment, as practised at the "StuyVesant meuicsi
lnsttute,'' New York city.
The unprecedented success which has ATTENDED,
this method of treating diseases, oil Inc Lungs
and Throat, has induced us to part from our u
sue course in order to bring it 10 the knowledge
Of such as may be laoorlnS uhuer oF PieuiPo'
ed tC such affections.
The dawn of brighter day has at length ar
rived for the consumptiye. The doctrine OF
the incurablity Of Consumption has at iength
nassed away. We have indubitable proofs IN
our possession, that Consumption in all Its STA
qes can be cured; IN the first by tUbercutar 40
Sorption in the second by Transformation Of t!'-
beycule into chaIky and calcareous conerstionS ID
The third, bu cieatriees or scars. Those Wedded
to the past, may assert that even now Consump-
ton is incurable; such are behind the age. 10
all this, great truth must be apparent, VIZ
that medicines inhaled in the form of yapor or
Po,cdsr directly into the Lungs must be more ell
fectual than that taken iuto the stomach, where
the disease does not exist
The advantage Of Inhalation in Consumption
and Throat Diseases is, the stomach is thus leit
free 10 aid in restoring by, administering 10 IL
healthy life-giving food. There IS no case SO
homeless that inhalation tCiH not reach Ihe
means, TOO, are brought within reach OF all, the
manner Of administering the yapors being SO
simple that the invalid is never required 10
leave home, where the hand of friendship and
affection tends so much TO aid the physician
efforts.
The Inhalating method is soothing safe and
speedu, and consists in the administration OF med
icines in such manner that they are conveyed
into the lungs in the form of Vapor and produce
their action at the seat Of the disease. Its pIac-
teal success is destined to revoIutlonIZe lie
opinions of the medical world and establish the
entire carabslity Of Consumption.
Iearnestly appeal TO the common sense OF
all afflicted with lung diseases, 10 embrace al
once the advantage of Inhalatan; and no Ion
ger apply medicines to the unottendng stomach
claim for Inhalation place among the p'tce-
less gifts nature and art hath given US, that "our
days may be long in thu land" and is the only
Ark of Refuge for the COnSumptiVe.
A method not only rational bu! simple aud eff
caciouS.
Such of the profession that have adopted In
halaion, have found it cticGciors in The highest
degree, Grresting the progress Of disease and york
ing cOnders in many desperate cases, i'll verify
triumph of our art over this fell destryer Of our
species.
