AND HOW he WAS CURED OF GONsBMPTIoH =
Many Yeas ago, whilst residing in Philidel-
phia, had progressed gradually into the last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption All hopes
of my recovery being dissipated, Twas advised
by my ply ysicIsB, DR.. Parrish to remove into
the country. MOorestowD, New Jersey, being
my native place, was removed theither NV

there-and died Of Pulmonary CONSUMPTION
On my arrival 1 was put TO bed, where lay
for many weeks in what was deemed hopeless
condition. DR.. Thornton, who had been nv
father S family physician, and had attended him
in his last illness, was called 10 see me- He
thought my case entirely beyond the reach of
medicine and decided that l must die, and
gave me one week to arrange my temporal
affairs. in thIsaPpearantly hopeless condition,

working their way, and penetrating every nerve

My lungs and liver put on new action, and
the morbid matter which for years had aecum-
ulated and irTitated the different organs of the
body, was eliminated, the tubercles Of my lungs
ripened, and | exPeetOrated from my lungs as
much as pint of yellow offensive matter every
morning. As this expectOration of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the
cough ceased to hsrrass me, and the exhaustine
nght-sweets were no longer known, and had
refreshing sleep, 10 which had long been a
stranger My appetite now began 10 return.

the upper lobe OF the right one is in tolerably

an incursble disease, by every one, physicians
as well as those who were unlearned in medi.

for people wound send for me far and near to

For many years, in conjunction with my
principal office in Philadelphia, / have been
making regular professional visits to New York,
| Boston, Baltimore, and Pittsburg
| For several years past ! have made as many
as five hundred examinations weekly with the
"Respirometer" For such examination NV
charge Is three dollars, and it enables me to give
each patient the true condition of his disease,
and tell him frankly whether be win get we'll
The great reason why physicians do not cure
Consumption Is that they try to do too rIdch;
they give medicines to stop the cough, to stop
the night-sweats, hectic fever, and by so dong
/ they derange the whole digestive system lock-
ing up the secretiODs, and eventually the patient
| dies.
| The PulmonIC syrup Is one of the most val
liable medicines known. II is nutrient, power

no opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the broBch-
ial tubes and nature throws it off with little ex-
ertion. One bottle frequently cures an ordip-

the patient dies suddenly.
Bourbon wbIskey is recommended nOw-a-
days by almost every physician Many patients
that visit my rooms, both male and female, sIy
stupeted with this poison. The relief is tem-
porary. If they cough they take little whis-
| ky; If they feel weak and feeble they take
little whisky; If they cannot sleep they take
httlc whisky; and they go ON IN this way, re-
quiring more and more until they are bloated
up and imagine they getting feshy. The
stomach, liver, and digestive powers are COM

food. No one was ever cured OF consumption
