IL is zone every day. Yes this stupid and unpbilo-
sophcal practice is continued in the teeth of the
great Jdct that ply steal weakness, with all the
nervous disturbances that accompany it, is more
certainly and rapidly relieved by HOSTETTER,s
STOMACH BlTTER'S than by any other medicine
at present known. 1t is true that general debility
is often attended with torpidity or irregulaity of
the bowels, and that this symptom must not be
overlooked. But while the discharge of the waste
matter of the system is expedited or regulated its
rigor must be recruited. The Btters do both. They
combine aperient and anti-bilious properties, with
extraordinary tonic power. Even while removing
distractions from the bowels, they tone and

| On The TREATMENT OF THROAT AND LUNG

LETTER no. VIII.
The word inhalation means simply the act of in

medical usage it means mode OF administering
medicines TIL ough the medium of the breath. Thus
we say II inhale medicine" as we would say 81
take medicine" The difference being only that
one Is inhaled, OF breathed into the lungs while the
other is swallowed, taken into the stomach This
then, is what is meant by "Me Dictated Inhalation"
The reader will observe that all medicines inhaled
into the lungs are not alike, any more than those
taken into the stomach and hence the benefits 70 be
derived from iDht laton must always depend upon
the experience and skill of the physician bo pre-
seribes .or them.
This explanation might have seemed unnecessary.
but Tor the tact hatsome have received the erroneous
impression that inhalation instead of being mode of
practice, is some specific remedy OF nostrum alike

poses OF quackery. The process of inhalipg is as
simple as The act Of breathing ITSELF ami may BIO

REV. Mr.. COOKS STATEMENT. The New
York papers are iull of tho details OF the elope-
Went Of Rev. Mr.. Cook with Miss johnson.
Mr.. Cook gives the following curious account
of himself to gentleman who visited him at
the station house, where he was confined after
committing an assault upon an editor of the
World:
When was 18 years old l was engaged to
be married to a girl about my own age. L
loved her devotedly, and had every reason to
believe that my affections were returned. An
aunt of hers broke the engagement; how l do
not know, but villainously. The girl went to
the West Indies, and have never seen her
since. Upon leaving this country she return
ed my ring, daguerreotype, letters and all the
tokens of affection which he'd passed between
u.s. Her image faded from my MIND, anu
when twenty years old l married my Presentt
wife. She is and always has been the 9Tng
women, and we have never quarre,teu The
our long married life. BeIore ;.e 1870 az
ministry was an actor; n aId Rowerv Theatre
T NJ 70 Tho time Of coming to New York my life
o,as a bonny one, and as pure as beftted
Christian man and minister of the Gospel.
I was never unfaithful to my wife in the slight
est degree, even in thought or deed, and the
story in regard to my visiting places of bad re-
pute Is fabrication, basey false. When we
moved to Seventh street l became acquainted
with Matte johnson. In form and feature
she was the counterpart of my first love, le-
semDllng her in all respects. L became nfatu-
uated beyond control, and it was utterly be-
yond my power to resist the temptation to try
and make her mine. But although loving her
to desperation, l never had any criminal inter-
course with her; and, so help me God, she is
as pure and innocent this night as an angel in
Heaven. Oh! Has fool to do such thing.
Don't palliate my crime, for l have acted
most wickedly, and will bear any punishment
that may be put upon me.
l intended to have fled the country and
should have done so but for that internal arti
Gle in the World yesterday morning. 1t was q
clear tissue of lies from Eegnning to end, and
l could not torbear facing him and seeking
vengeance upon him. But for this l would
never have been found out. 1t was this object
alone which forced me from my hiding place.
have not done with the writer of that article
yet; and If ever get out of this place, there
the prisoner CRASHED his teeth and cenchng
his fists struck them wildly against the iron
bars, adding at the same time with emphasis, }
will wreak a terrible vengeance upon him.
Don't don't tell any lies about me, but don
palliate my crime. Oh fool, fool that was.
My head is wild. and shall loose my reason
God help me, 9m a miserable man."
The prisoner ~ stated his case. In his ex.
cited frame of n I'd it was utterly impossible
to gain from him sny connected story OF the
abduction, or the 1neans which he had used tC
induce the unfortunate girl to take the course
she had which places her in so painful posi-
ton, and brings unmerted disgrace upon hel
| am cted family.
