Consumption.
The great prevalence of this disease,
aud its fatal results, are well calculated
to enlist our best efforts for its cure,
What is Consumption II is disease
of the lungs, produced by nm acid and
impure condition Of the blood, which,
circulating through these most delicate
organs, poisons and irritates their tissues
and invites scrofulous humors Of the
blood, causing the deposition Of tuber-
cles and establishing ocalscrofuln. An.
other prolific exciting cause of the de.
velopment of scrofulous disease of the
lungs, or tubucular consumption, is
Chronic Nasal Catarrh, which, extending
along the mucous lining membrane of
the throat, tiachea and bronchial tubes,
finally attacks the substance Of the
lungs, and here establishes such mn irri-
tatiOn us to invite the blood to deposit
its burden of impurities in these organs,
Consumption itself is not so often heied.
italy MS is generally supposed. That a
condition OF low vitality may be trans
mitted from parents to their children is
unquestionably true. It is this dehcien-
cy of vitality which is inherited-a
weakness which makes nutrition imper-
sect, and leads to the deposit of tuber.
clcs. But thousand of persons who in.
hcrit feeble vitality would never suffer
from consumption il the functions OF
the system were kept correct and the
blood pure. When the liver becomes
torpid, and but very imperfectly pours
of the etlete, poisonous materials Of the
blood, the lungs, rs has before been
shown, become irritated. The general
health becomes broken down, and the
person feels langtlid, weak, faint, drowsy
and confused. Pain in the right side, in
the region of the liver, and sympathetic
pain in the shoulders and spine, aud
through the lungs, is generally com.
planned Of. The patient soon has dry,
hacking cough-that liver cough !!
Small minute .ubercles are developed
in the lungs, and perhaps exist for
months all unknown to their victim.
Nothing is done to remove tubercles by
the ordinary treatment Cough is only
n symptom of the disease, yet this only
is aimed at in the usual treatment. There
is no rational way to cure consumption
except to purify the blood. Those poi.
sonous materials in the blood which
cause the tubercles must be thrown of
by exciting the liver to notion. Vitality
mustbe supported, the system nourished
and built up, and the development of
tubercles thus prevented. Remove the
blood poison by restoring the action of
the liver, and the cough, which is only
II symptom of the real disease, is reliev.
