CURED OF CONSUMPTION.

Many years ago, whilst residing in Philndcphin
had gradually into tn" last stage of Pnl
Hl0Hary Consumption. All hopes Of my recovery
hcing di.sipatcd, was advised by my plysirian
DR. Parrish, to remove into the cOantry. Moorcs-

tcrcIv beyond the reach Of medicine, and decided
that must die. aud gave me one week to arrange

MY lungs and liver pnt on neg'action, and the
morbid matter which for years had accumulated and
rritair the different organs OF the body. elimi
mated, the tubcrcles on my lungs ripench and ex.
perforated from my lungs as much as pint OF yellow
offensive matter every morning AS this 'xpcctorn'
ton OF matter subsided the fever ahated, hnd pain
left me- the cough ceased to harfass me- and the ex.
hausting night .sweats were no longer known, and l
had refreshing sleep, to which had long been a
stranger. My appetite now began TO return. and at
times found 1t difficult to restrain myself from eat
ing too much; with this return OF health, gained in
strength and am now feshy. Am now a ealihy
man with n large healed cicatrix in the middle lobe
of the right lung and the lower lobe hepatizcd with
complete adhesion to the pleura. The left lung is
sound, and the upper lobe OF the right one Is In
tolerably healthy condition.
Consumption at that time was thought to be an
incurable disease by every one ply sicans as well as
those unlearned in medicinc-especially such cases
as were reduced to the condition in. This in

sumptives for some time and made many wonderful
cures: and the demand Increased rapidly that de.
termined to offer them TO the public, and devote my
undivided attention to lung diseases. In truth 1
was next to forced to it, for people would send for
me- far and near, to ascertain whether their cases
were like mine.
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 examinatic weekly, with the "Respironi'
c.er." For such examinations my charge Is three
dollars, and 1t enables me to give each patient the
true condition Of his disease, and tell him frankly
whether he will get well.
The great reasos why physicians do not cure Con-
sumption is that they r, TO do too much; they give
medicines to stop the cough, TO stop swrats'
hectic fever and by doing they derange the whole
digestive system, locking up the secretons, and
eventually the patient dies.
