Their stock of Boots and Shoes for rn-m, wo

cbeanest that has ever been brought to Bedford,

same goods.
Second :—They were bought foi CASH, and
the usual discounts made.
Third :—Th'-y were bought in much larger -
quantities than dry goods merchants buy them,
and consequently were bought much lower.
If'tbii is doubted, the evidence is on the stand
at the counter.

the B torn ton Hospital, London. 'I he great point in ,
the treatment ot all human maladies, is To get at the j
direct manner. All medicines are estimated by •
their act ion upon the organ requiring relict. 1 his
is the important fact upon which Inhalation * has- .
ed. Ift he stomacn is .li-ea-d we take medleys
directlv into the slomach. If the longs are .Its/ i"
ed. breathe or inhale medicaiert vapors directly into j
the lupes. Medicinf-s are the antidotes to disease |
and shoT.ld be applied to the very scat of Ihe disease. I
Inhalation is the application of this principle to ihe ,
treatment of the lungs, for it gives us direct access ,
to those intricate air cells ar.d tubesyvhirh he out ot
reach of every other means of administering medi
cines. Inhalation brings the medicine in direct con
tact with the disease, without the disadvantage of
any violent action. Its application is so sm.p.e,
that it can be employed by the youngest intant or
feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stemach,
comfort ot bustnessof the patient.
