DOCTOR JOHN FRANCIS CHURCHILL an

and Sciences, Of Paris (of which bodies no is 4
member.) Ms early Ms 1855, II new Theory o
the CAUs. and TREATMENT of tuberculosis
(Consumption,) which may be briefly stated
in his own language, M follows: "Phthisis Il

PnoRrs nominally existing in the economy.
The remedy. therefore. consists In supplying
the deficient element by such preparation %

These agents, failing 10 mute the two essen
tai conditions laid down by br. Churchill, were
rejected.
The HYrorHosrHIrEs are the only theropeu
ticil agents known, which meet all the indi
cations of the disease. ''They are nearly n,
ordisabie as phosphorus itself-are perfcctl,
soluble. and, when pure, cast down no precipi

confidently: "If Consumption depends upor

they are complete prophyiaetis, and the time
