All diseases OF the respiratory organs treat
ed by the most improved medicated iahaia-
lions, thus bringing the remedies into direct
contact with the diseased part. These are
In all cases combined with proper constitu-
tional remedies for the liver, stomach,
cy sy, Of this system OF practices is sttested By
the fact that out of $500 persons treated In
Los Angeles during the past two years only
twelve have died, and those had treatment
only with a view OF prolonging HE.
oHRoNIc BRONCHITIS.
Bronchitis is an Inflammation OF the
mncua membrane of the bronchial tubes,
and is one of the most common of the pull
monary affections Chronic br0chitfs more
often appears later IN life. When cold
settles ON the lungs the disease either ends
bronchitis 1t usually passes OF a. cold on
the chest, and still the patient does not feel
entirely well. He feels tired and languid,
and Is incapable OF taking his usual amount

appears, accompanied by an expeotoration

com umption. But this Is simply eatarrh Of
the lungs or chrome bronchitis.

cells Of the lungs the mucus membrane be-
comes congested and infiamed- There are
no cavities nor tubercles In the lungs. but
merely wasting away Of tho larger bron-
chial tubes and death takes place from OBJ
| struction OF the bronchial tubes and air
cells OF the lungs. The patient dies from
exhaustion aud suffocation. being unable
| TO expectorate the mucus which accumu-
| lates In the passage leading to the lungs,
which in some cases is sticky and small In
| quantity, but more commonly copiou ) OF a
| light straw or yellow:sh green. o tentimes
| streaks of blood make their appearance In
| the mucus. and at times there Is disagree
| able smell. Persons thus afflicted are liable
| to take cold, at which times the mucus
becomes clear and frothy, and i is not un-
commonly the case that the patient dies in
one OF these attacks.
| Humid bronch tbs (from humor, TO be
moist) is so called from the profuse quanti-
| " OF watery secretions which comes from
| the air passages OF the lungs. At times II
becomes quite ropy. like the white OF an
egg. This form Of disease usually attacks
ID Dry HBfonehisis.-This disease. the very
opposite Of the above. is very common AZ
lection. Very many people who regard
| themselves quite healthy are to-day under
/ its influence. and are slowly but surely be
coming the victims Of this treacherous com
/ plant. This Is the most tnsidious OF all
pulmonary diseases. Ts ere may at first be
a slight, hacking cough, and an expectorai
| ton OF a bluish-white mucus. And herein
i lies the danger. This mucus. inhabiting
| the air cells oi the lungs, being difiicult to
raise, after time becomes solidshed per
Il manently obstructing portions OF the lungs
| causing shortness OF breath and q feeling oil
| oppression on the chest, particularly aftel
meals or on slight cxertion. After time
i the cough becomes more severe and come,
on In paroxysms, aud as the shortness ol
breath increases, It almost assumes tho
brane also becomes more and more thick
ened, 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 thai
are 70 follows.
| Inhalation is the only system which viii
cure these diseases, and yet the treatment
| OF the two are entirely different In the one
we must aliay the irritation, while In the
other we must stimulate a healthy action.
This will convince us of the necessity o.
| Gated Inhalations in the treatment of ths
various diseases Of the pulmonary organs
| for when properly applied there Is no sys
| tenn Of medicine to be compared with It.
Those who desire TO consult with me In

sonally for an examination. but IL fmpossi
