CONSUMPTION
No. 65 Adams Street.

THE fearful prevalence IN this climate OF
Throat and Lung diseases, in some form or
other, has been remarked again and again.
Indeed, 1t is astonishing and alarming TO
contemplate the ravages of pulmonary COM
plants in our very midst, and It is asserted
by many careful Observers that this class OF
diseases Is the cause of nearly nfty per cent.
Of the whole number of deaths.
Whether in the lecture room, the concert
hail., the chulch, or any other popular assem-
bly,, the same OTgiRoHs and terrible sound Of
coughing, clearing the throat or hOarseness
Of veice attracts attention.
The almost im-perceptfble graduation of q
cold to a seated consumption is q cause Of
neglect OF the proper remedial measures. As
we look back upon the past year, how many
of us can recall cases where persons contract
ed a slight cold, then had catarrh or throat
disease, then bronchitis, and finally con-
sumption and were bornet 70 their last resting
place. How many who, a few short months
ago, were as full of life and hope as We now
are who, by the neglect Of a slight cold, are
now falling day by day, and Win soon AIDE
from our sight. The degrees or stages of pull
monary diseases are so insidiOus that the pa
tient fails 70 realize his danger till he is too
near the fatal whirlpool to escape. We deem
all men mortal but ourselves, and cannot
bring our minds TO believe that our families.
our friends and ourselves are going to die
early; 1t is somebody else who is negligent,
somebody else who is going 10 I'LL a eonsunlp-
tues grdue. How terrible the awakening TO
the realty. Far wiser would it be to learn
the truth in season TO avert the fate while yet
the malady was in a durable stage.
Let none deceive themselves, for IL is a
truth that a neglected cold, eatarrh of the
head, throat disease or bronchitis, ends in
consumption and death. Ii may be sooner
or later, the progress OF the disease may be
rapid or slow, but the result is inevitable.
But, how TO cure these diseases OF the throat
and lungs, how to cure catarrh. asthma and
bronchitis, and other diseases that lead TO
consumption, is a most perplexing inquiry.
Let the experience of others and common
sense settle that matter. There was a time
when all sorts of drugs and poisonous com
pounds were forced into the stomach with the
hope of curing such complaints; but the ut
ter and invariable failure of this practice,
year after year, has led to the false dogma
that these diseases were ineurabIe, and final
Ey the aim of the physician. himself disheart-
ened, was merely to palliate and smooth the
passage of the poor consumptive to the tomb.
Persevering inquiry led to the discovery OF
new and important truths. We now address
the remedial AGENTS directly 70 the parts dis
edsed; and in this lies the chief secret of the
remarkable success of DR.. JEROME PASCOsT's
net0 mode Of cure, and which enables me to
guarantee permanent and radical cures after
all other modes of medication have failed.
We say without hesitation, that the greater
lumber of pulmonary diseases eau be cured.
We are prepared at any moment to present
the testimony OF the persons themselves,
nom amongst our best citizens, whO have
been cured of the worst forms OF CatdrTh, OF
Throat Disease, OF Asthma, of Bronchitis, and
even OF Consumption itself, without the use Of
much medicine, burning OF clustering; with
out the necessity OF exile from home, or any
Inconvenience whatever, as the treatment
can be successfully conducted at home, OF
wherever the patient may be.
Ss- Call personally. If possible to do so, fol
examination. The remedies then can be
used at home with success. Otherwise. writt
for a list of questions.
sS- Charges moderate n within the reach
of all.
