IMPORTANT CASE CURED.
LETTER No. VI.

A--A LIN
To the Editor Of the Spy
The practice of Medcated Inhalation is equally
well adapted to the treatment of Consumption,
bronchitis, Asthma, and CataTrh In all where
the nasal passages, the mucous membranes Of the
throat and bronchial tubes are involved, the direct
application OF the remedies by inhaing or breathing
them is the only successful which has yet
been adopted for their removal md radical cure

Gu nave lailed hundreds i'll almost state in the
Ohon are now able TO testify. This treatment aside
from all evidence, appeals once TO the reason and
men OF every intelligent rejecting individual,
WHY VIII give the subject one moments thought
llat an individual can be found so stupid as not
10 perceive that remedy, when applied directly to
the diseased organ will not be more etIcacous and
certainly curative in its effects than when annIied at
distance from it, | am slow to believe Every
b E t cohhrms me more and more in the
Dee1 mat TINS simple and direct process of phala-
lon When better understood and more peneraliv
pracuced by the profession, will soon disarm Con
sumption of its power, and the day will not he far
Instant when tins giant foe of human life whose de-
structye march has laid waste so MANY hapnv
homes, will be ranked among our most durable dis
eases But you may be told it is "quackery, dit is
humDug," or that ait injured somebody's Now
what does all this prove? Simply nothing That
quacks have employed it, and have failed have not
doubt. And even medical men of respectable
standing In their profession have experimental with
IT, put wanting i'll practical experience we need not
wonder much that they too should have failed.
Nothing can be more absurd than the folly of sup
posing that this system of practice be taken up
with comparative little study and at once successful
~ practlced by the mere novice in the profession
The fact is quite otherwise N 10 system is more COM
plicated and requires more thorough acquaintance
with all Its details, a nicer discrimination and a
more nature Judgment, than does the treatment by
inhalation; but feel warranted in saving that it

cation The public have long since ceased to have
contidence in the ordinary mode of practice as en-
ployed Tor the cure of consumption. These
means nave not only failed, but, alas, too
many instances they have more speedily hurried
Forward the fatal symptoms. To what then, can
the consumptive invalid look for health if not to
lnhalatlon! Common indicates, reason and
experience prove that this is the only rational and
successful means by which any medication to the
lungs can be made. The results of this treatment
have been such, need scarcely saw as to excite the
wonder and admiration of medical men wherever
II mas Deen put into practice. The public
longer satisfied with the old routine; they demand
Il change, and they will have it. The ewes of the
civilized world, both in Europe and America are at
TINS moment anXiously turned TO the system of in
nalatlon, as the consumptiyes only ground of hope
In conclusion, will only add that have EMPLOYED
TINS treatment in many hundreds of cases with the
most gratifying and satisfactory results And have
had te happiness to succeed in restoring many CON
sumptlYes to health by inhalation. when all other
means usually employed by the profession had been
Intellectually tried.
The following communication from one of our
patients presents another very striking proof of the
remarkable efficacy OF inhalation in the cure of pull

MAIDEN, March 9, 1860
N' II; r. DHlen6dck: Dear Sir-In answer to your
request Tor report OF my case, would say that in
ana wheezing respiration and it did not make me
ieel very sick at first, thought lightly of it and
neglected TO apply to physician, until my symp-
TOMS became alarming. | then began to take medi-
cnes from physician of the highest standing in his
profession, butt continued to grow worse daily and
he hnally told me there was not more than one
chance in ten that Iwould ever be any better then
commenced taking cod liver oil and continued its
use IN large quantities for eighteen months but
soon as left it off the old troubles came on again
ana Us could not make up my mind to take cod liver
OIL all the rest of my days began to think of
some other remedy. At this time had profuse
last. Ny cough attended with expectora-
uon OF thick yellow matter, often streaked
with blood, and | had all the usual symp-
toms OIL confirmed Consumption. Having read your
interesting letters in regard to the treatment of dis
eases or the throat and lungs by inhalation, my
mind became tayorably impressed with the reasona-
Dleness OF such treatment, and decided to give it
tral. When l first came to you, you told me the
same as other physicians had-that my right lung
was considerably diseased, but am happy to say
that III one week from the time commenced your
Ieeoles by limitation, my night had entire

renewed L began to have better appetite, and
gradually regained my flesh and strength | contin-
ued your treatment four months, and at the end of
is tline, with the exception of occasional slight
irritation OF my throat call myself as well as ever
was was. am Tree to say, consider inhalation

wonderful and exceedingly happy results of the
above case, so ably and faithfully described by the
lady herself, were solely DUE under the blessing of
Tod, to the perseveriug use of inhaled remedies
The best medical skill had evidently been sought
Everything that kind friends could suggest had been
put into requisition, vet every svmptom seemed to
