for the Lungs are so cut up by the disease as
to bid defiance TO medical skill. Even, how
ever, in the last stages, Inhalation affords ex-
traordinary relief TO the suffering attending
this fearful scourge, which annually DESTROYS
ninety-fve thousand persons in the United
States alone; and correct calculation shows
that OF the present population of the earth,
eighty millions are destined 10 fill the con-
Sumptlve's graves
Truly the quiver Of death has no arrow 90
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 beautiful, the graceful and the gifted. BY
the help Of that Supreme Being from whom
cometh every good and perfect gift, | am en-
abled 10 offer TO the afflicted permanent and
speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause
OF tuberclcs is from impure blood, and the i'm
mediate effect produced by their deposition
in the lungs is TO prevent the free admission
of air into the air cells which causes a wea-
kened vitality through the entire system
! Then surely it is more rational to expect
greater good from medicines entering the
cavities of the lungs than from those admin
lstercd through The stomach; the patient will
always find the lungs free and the breathing
easy, after Inhalng remedies. Thus, Inha-
halation is a local remedy, nevertheless il acts
cOnstltutionalIy, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administered by The
stomach. To prove the powerful and direct
| influence of this mode Of administration, chic
roform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibil-
Ity in Il few minutes, paralyzing the entire
nervous system, so that limb may be ampu-
tated without the slightest pain; inhaling the
ordinary burning gas will destroy life in
few hours
The inhalation Of ammonia will rouse the

The odor of many of the medicines is percep-
tibie in the skin few minutes after being in

tntIonal effects OF inhalation, is the fact that
sickness Is always produced by breathing foul
ar-ls not this positive evidence that proper
remedies, carefully prepared and judcously
| administered through the lungs should pro-
ducr the haPpcst results! During eighteen
years practice, many thousands suffering
from diseases of the lungs and throat. have
been under my care, and have effected many
rema rkable cures, even after the sufferers
have been pronounced in the last stages.
which fully satisfies me that consumption is
no longer a fatal disease. Ny treatment of
consumption is original, and founded on long
experience and thorough investigation. My
| perfect acquaintance with the nature ofiuber-
c!es, &c, enables me TO distinguish, readily,

would give me an opportunity to examine the

greater certainty, and then the cure could be
effected without my seeing the patient again.
