Diseases Of the Lungs and Throat

confidently that Consumption is curable be-
inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed
pleasure. 1t is much under the control of
medical treatment as any other formidable
diseuse; ninety out of every hundred cases
can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per
cent. in the second; but in The third stage il
is impossible to save more than FIVE per cent.

Truly the culver of death has no arrow go
