and speedy cure in Consumption. The first
cause of tuberces IS from impure blood, and
the immediate effect produced by their depo-
siton in the lungs is 10 prevent the free ad-
mission Of air iAto tha air cells, which causes
weakened vitality through the entire system.
Then surely it is more rational to expect great
er good from medicnes entering the cavities
Of the lungs than from those administered
through the stomach; the patient will always
find the lungs free and the breathing easy at
