that OF the present population of the earth, 8

Truly the culver of death has no arrow so
fatal as Consumption. In all ages il has been
the great enemy of life, for it spares neither,
age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave.

the help OF that Supreme Being from whom
cometh every good and perfect gift, | am en-

speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause
of tuberclcs is from impure blood. and the i'm

IN The lungs Is TO prevent the free admission

kened vitality through The entire system.-
Then surely it is more rational 10 expect

cavities of the lungs than from those admin
lstered through the stomach; the patient will
always find the lungs free and the breathing
easy, after lnhaling remedies. Thus, inha-
halatlon Is local remedy, nevertheless ii acts
cOnstltutionally, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administere by The
stomach. To prove the powerful and direct
influence OF this mode of administration, chlo-

duce the happiest results! During eighteen
years practice, many thousands suffering
from diseases of the lungs and throat, have
been under my care, and have effected many
remarkable cures, even after the sufferers
haze been pronounced in the last stages,
which fully satisfies me that consumption is
NO longer fatal disease. My treatment of
consumption Is original, and founded on long
experience and a thorough investigation. My
perfect acquaintance with the nature ofiuber-
c!es, &C., enables me 10 distinguish, readily,
the various forms ofdisease that simulate con-
sumption, and apply the proper remedies, rare

would give me an opportunity to examine the
