worn out with Disease.

nEV0TE all their time to the study and treat
~ ment Of chronic discases that slowly but surely
destroy the constitution. We are prepared to treat
successfully all durable cases and do succeed in Gu
ring many eases that are given up as incurable.
One Of us will be at the Pearl Street House in
Laurel, Tuesday and Wednesday, January z5th and
2Gth, and at the Valley House in Brookvlle, Thurs
day and Friday, January ~ and 2S, 1859.
We treat Pulmonary Consumption, Bronchitis,
Laryngitis Asthma and all diseases of the air pas
sages, by the inhalation of medicated vapors, to-
gether with general treatment We were the first to
introduce inhalation in the west. That system OF
practice was then in its infancy in America. We
took upon ourselves the labor and responsibility OF
its introduction. We have moved onward, right on
ward. The practice has amply sustained the theo-
ny, and the wonderful effected have placed in
halation a durable basis. We have succeeded in
curing many where Drs. Hunter, Fitch, Curtis
and others practicng inhalation, failed to cure
This we are prepared to prove. Whatever medi
cnes the case may require, such Expectorsnts Sc
datves, Stimulants, Tonics Alternatives &C., can al
with equal certainty, be administered by inhalation
and carried in vapor with the air breathe, int
every part Of the lungs and thus brought in contac
not only with the diseased surface, but there mxet
with the blood itself, and carried ON through tn,
entire system. Hence local and constitutions
treatment is effected at the same time.
We are well aware of the course pursued by som;
that style themselves travelling PLY sicans, and yis
place once, and only once; and we fully under
sthnu the OpihiOn ny many, OF Ill Una
may chance TO travel Physicians. We also under
stand the influence aud arguments made use Of b,
some local physicians, entirely unacquaintcd Will
the remedial powers Of medical inhalation, agans
its use in treating lung diseases. All these obstacle
disappear like dew before the SUM- IA for ourselve
we do not claim perfection, neither do we claim Il
cure all; but we do claim to deal honestly and can
didly with all, and give our opinion freely in al
that may be presented to US, and Civ
couragement in hopeless casOs, nor urge any one Z
take our treatment; and wish 10 be judged by GU
own acts and merit as physicians, and not by th
course pursued by others.
| BY referring to our circulars you will find man
certificates signed by responsible persons that W
have treated, and we particularly request all por
sens that think of applying TO but sceptica
and doubling, TO first write to more of thos
treated by US, and satisfy themselves before calm
on US, We do dislike to be suspicioncd OF hum
| buggery.
We establish a route and aim 10 visit each plac
once in about six weeks. This course enables US I
| see and consult with our patients, consequently W
can prescribe with much better success than by wr
ting.
We devote special attention to all nervous diseas
es, and diseases of Females, Neuralgia, Rheuma
tism, Dropsy, Epilepsy, Dyspepsia aud all disease
of the Stomach Bowels, Liver Spleen, Kidneyi
Urinary aud Reproductive Organs, Scrofua, Spini
Disease, Erysipelas and all diseases Of the Skin
Eyes, Ears, Ulcers, Piles, &c., &c.
