rIethod.

Asthma Is usually known as paroxysms
of difficult Breathing, lasting from
few hours to several days, coming on
at intervals, to be followed by remls-
sions, during which the patient breathes
with comparative ease.
The attack returns again at regular
intervals, or is provoked by exposure
to cold, damp air, severe efforts, or even
mental emotions. During the attack the
respiration is labored, with wheeling,
frequent cough and threatening suffoca-
ton.

He can lift $50 pounds with his teeth
