By his Aerean system of practice, which con-
sists of Medicated Inhalations and Compound
Oxygen, being administered to the patient, in
stead of filling the system with poisonous drugs
administered by the stomach.
This is the system of practice which is now
tttraethng the attention OF the best
and truly wonderful are the results obtained
after all other means have failed in accomplish
ing any good whatever.
ASTHMA
1t is a common error to suppose every dis
ease which is attended by oppressed breath
ing to be Asthma or Phthisic. We have short
ness of breath in Consumption and Pneumonia
Just as we do in Asthma, only that in these
diseases it is always present, whereas in Asthma
Asthma is spasmodc disease of the lungs,
which manifests itself in periodic attacks or
fits" 1t comes on suddenly and is attended
with great difficulty of breathing while it lasts;
but when the attack is over the patient breathes
ALMOST as well as in health.
Nervous, Humid and Dry Asthma are names
physema is another and more inveterate kind
of Asthma, while Hay Fever or Rose Cold is a
peculiar variety of Asthma which occurs at
forms of disease differs somewhat from the
others in symptoms, but practically these dis
tinctions are of very little value. 1t does not
matter to the patient which form of Asthma
he has. since his suferings are the same in
all. In one case the expectoration becomes
yellow, and we call II bronchial. In another
1t is light, and we call it dry. When he coughs
up clear water, with white froth on the sur
face, we say he has Humoral Asthma. In
Nervous Asthma there is very little expector-
alton of any kind. Hay Fever always begins
as a crying cold in the head or influenza. and
a clear water runs from the nose and the eyes
before the Asthma fit comes on. In Emphysema
the expectoration is generally thick, and con-
tinues SO in the interval between the fits
while the shortness of breath is increased on
the slightest eXertion.
1t is foolish conceit OF many people to be-
lieve that if they have Asthma they cannot get
Consumption The truth is the very opposite.
because they have the Asthma. Another idea
is that the Asthma itself is not a dangerous dis
ease, and yet the published bills of mortality
for this city prove to all who read them that
great numbers lose their lives every year by
this foul destroyer OF our homes
without courage and perseverance nothing
is curable. But with these, aided by proper
and skillful treatment, Asthma can be cured
even after the lungs are extensively diseased.
Persons desiring treatment by this system OF
practice can use the remedies at home as well as
at our Office, and which will cause no incOn-
venience or hindrance from businefs whatever.
Every case of Asthma is curable. Eastern
visitors and invaiids will be wise in being
cured before they return home.
Those who desire to consult me III regard
TO their cases had better call at the Office for
examination, but if impossible to visit the office
personally, can write for list of questions and
circular, both of which will be sent free Of
charge. Address
