DRONCHITAS, Iarygitis and other diseases of
ID the Chest and Throat, successfully treated by
the inhalation of Medical Vapors and Powders, By
absorption and constitutional treatment as prac-
tced at the Stuyvesant Medical Institute, New
York.
The unprecedented success 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
as may be laborlng under, or predisposed to such
affections. The dawn of brighter day has airiv-
ed for the Consumptve; the doctrine Of the incura
bility of Consumption having at length passed
| away. We have indubitable proofs in our posses
sion, that Coasumptton, ia all its stages can be
cured,-in the first. by tubercuar absorptions; in
the second, by the transformation of tubercsle into
chalky and cacerous concretions; in the third, by
cicatriceg Those welded to the opinions
of the past may assert that now consumption
is ncurable; such behind the age. To all this
great truth must be apparent, viz: that the med
cine inhaled in the form of Fapor or Powder d-
ectly into the lungs must be more effectual 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 is thus
left free To aid in restoring by administering To il
healthy ife-giving food. There is no case so hope
les that tHhatdti0a sciW not redchl The means too
are brought within the reaah of all tho manner of
administering the Vapors being so simple, that the
invalid is never required 10 leave home where the
hand of friendship and affection tends 30 much to
aid the physicIins efforts.
The inhalIng method is soothing safe and sr,eeefy
and consists in the administration of medicines in
such a manner that they are conveyed into the
lungs IN the form of vDpor, and produce their action
at the seat of the disease Its practical success is
destined to revolutionize the opinions of the nedi-
cal world, and establish the entire cu,a5tiity of
Consumption.
Earnestly appeal to the common sense of all
afflicted with lung diseases to embrace at once the
advantages of inhalation; and no longer apply me-
dicines to the unodending stomach. / claim for in
halation place among the priceless gifts that aa-
t1re and art hath given us, that "our DAYS NAV be
long in the land" and as the only ARK OF RE-
FUGE FOR THE CGNSUMPTIVE, a method
not only rational but siDspie safe and e6fcacious
Such of the profession that have adopted inhala-
tlon have found it efcdcious in the highea de1ree
arresting the progress Of tie disease, and corkinq
