For many years, in conjunction with my principal
office In Philadelphia, have been making regular
professional visits to New York, Boston, Baltimore
and Pittsburgh
For many years past, have made as many as five
hundred examinations weekly, with tho "Respirom.

dollars, and It enables me to give each patient the

medicines to stop the cough to stop the night

digestive system, locking up the secretions, and
eventually the patient dies.
The Pulmonic Syrup Is one Of the most valuable
medicines known. It is nutrient, powerfully tonic

Bourbon whiskey is recommended nowadays by
almost every physician. Many patients that visit
my rooms, both male and female, are stupehed with
this poison. The reliefis temporary. Ifthey cough

feeble, they take little Whisky; II they cannot

one was ever cured Of consumption by this process
where cavities have been formed In the lungs. A
little stimulant Is frequently beneficial to consump

cases London Porter or Brown Stout, in moderate
quantities; but Bourbon Whsky hastens on, instead
OF curing consumption.
