All diseases OF the respiratory organs treated
by the most improved medicited inhalations,

cHRONIc BRONCHITIS.
Dronc,i,tii Is an Inflammation OF the mucous
membrane OF the bronchial tubes. and Is one OF
the most common OF tho pulmonar, affections.
Chronic bronchitis more often appears later in
life. When cold settles on the lungs the dis
ease tither 0nds In bronchitis or pneumonia. 1t
1t ends In bronchitis it usually passes on as
cold on tho chest, and still the patient does not
feel eni irely we'll lie feels tired AMI lsnguid,
and is incapable of taking his usual amount OF
exercise and experiences shortness q breath,
with more or l,ss warmth In the palms OF his
hands. Soon after this cough appears, accom-
panied by an expectoi alton OF thick mucous fol
l,weI by hectic lush, loss OF flesh and strength
and night sweats continue when the patient as
sume- all the appearances OF having genuine
case OF consumption. lut this Il simply Ca
tIrrh of the lungs or chronic brGnchitis
In rhe Later stage OF the disease the mucous
membrane Of tn, larger bronchial tube soltens,
while in the smaller tubes and air cells OF the
lungs the mucous membrane becomes congestG1
andinnamed There are no cavities nor tubur0les
in the lungs but merely waiting away OF the
larger bronchial tubes and death takes place
from obstruction Of the bronchial tubes and air
cells OF the lungs. The patient dies from ex-
haustion and suffocation, being unable TO expec-
torate tho mucous which accunulates In the pas
sage lead ng to the lungs which in some cases
Is sticky and small in quantity, but more COM
monty copious. OF light straw or yellswish
green Oftentin.es. streaks OF blood make their
appearance in the n,ncous, and at times there is
o disagreeable smell. Persons thus afflicted are
liable to take q cold, at which time the Mucous
becomes clear and frothy, and 1t is not uncom-
monty the case that the patient dies In one OF
these attacks.
Humid bronchitis tfrom humor, to be moist,)
Is 30 called from the prouse quantity Of watery
secretions which comes from the air passages OF
the lungs. At times it becomes quite ropy, like
the white Of an egg. This form OF disease usu.
ally attacks old people.
Dry Bronchitis This disease, the very oppo-
site Of the above, is very common affection.
Very many people who regard themselves quite
| healthy are to day under its influence, and are
slowly but surely becoming the victims OF this
treacherous complaint. This IS the most insdi-
ous Of all pulmonary diseases. There may at
first be slight hacking cough and an expcto-
ration OF bluish-white mucous And herein
lies tho danger. This mucous, inhabiting the
air cells Of the lungs, being difficult to raise, af
ter time becomes soliaifed, pc, niaiently Oh
strueting portions Of the lungs, causing short
ness of breath and feeling 4 oppression on the
chot, particularly after meals or on slight exer-
ton After time the cough becomes more se-
we're and Gomez on In paroxy sins AMI as The
shortness OF breath inerea ,ts. IL almost assumes
tho character Of asthma. The mucous men,
brane also becomes more and more thickeDed,
which arises from the frequent fresh colds, and
the patient at last becomes fully aware of the
terrible changes that have taken place, and the
inevitable results that are to follow.
Inhalation Is the only system which will cure
these dis ases, and yet the treatment OF the two
are entirely different. In the one we must allas
the irritation, While in the other We must slim
ulate healthy action
This will convince us Of the nece sity of fully
understanding the systems Of Medieated lnhala-
tions in the treatment OF the various diseases of
OF the pulmonary organs, for when properly APP
piled there Is no system OF medicine TO be COM
pared with it.
