    CONSUMPTION,
ANt ALL DISEASES-OF THE LUNGS
and THROAT ate positively curable by
inhalation, vrhiuh conveys the remedies lb
the cat ties in rhe lungs through the air pas
sages, and coming in direct contact with ihe
disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter,
allays the rough, causes a free and easy ex
pecto-ation, heals the-lungs, pur ifies the blood,
imparts renewed vitality to the nervoua sys
tem. giving that tone hnd energy so indis
pensable lor the restorative ol health. To he
able to stale confidently rhal Consumption is
curable by inhalation, ia to me a source ol
vnalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the
control ol medical treatment as any other
formidable disease; ninety out of every hun
dred caeca cau be cured in the first stages,
and fifty per cent, in lite second; hut in the
■third stage it is impossible lo save more than
five per cent., for the lungs are so cut tip by
the disease as to bid defiance lo medical
skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in
halation affords extraordinary relief to Ihe
suffering attending this ieatlulscourge, which
annually destroys ninety live thousand par
ados in lite United States alone; and a correct
calculation shows that out of the present pop
ulation of the earth, eighty millions are des
tined to fill the consumptive's grave.
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so
fatal as Consumption. In ull ages it has been
the great enemy of life, for it spares neither
age nor sex. but sweeps off alike the brave,
the beautiful, Ihe graceful, anil the gifted.—
By the help of that Supreme Being, from
whom comelit every good and perfect gift, I
em enabled to offer to the aflfcted a perma
nent and speedy cure in Consumption. The
first cause of tubercles is from impure
blood, and the immediate eflect, produced
by their disposition in Ihe lungs, is to prevent
the free admission of air into the air cells,
which causes a weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely it is more
rational to expect greater good from rr.edi,
cines entering the cavistes of the lungs than
Irotn those administered through the stom
ach; the patient Ivill always find ibo lungs
free and the breathing easy after inhaling
remedies. True, inhalation is a local
remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally,
und with more power and certainty than rem
edies administered by the atomuch. To prove i
the poweilul and direct influence ot this
mode of administration, chloroform inhaled
will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew min
utes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so
that a limb may be amputated without the
slightest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning
gas will destioy life in a few hours.
The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the j
system when (aiming or apparently dead
The odor of many ol the medicines is per
ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being
inhaled, and may be immediately delected
in the blood. A convincing proof of the
constitutional effects ol inhalation, is the lact
lhat sickness is always produced by breath
ing foul air- Is not this positive evidence
that proper remedies, carefully prepared and
iod'iciiui-ly administered through the lottos,
should produce the most hapny results? Du
ring eighteen years' practice, mnnv thous
ands, suffering from diseases of tlio lungs
nr.d throul, hnve been under my care, and I
have affected many remarkable cures, even j
after the sufferers had been pronounced in |
the last stages, which fully satisfies me that I
consumption is no longer a lata! disease.— j
My treatment of consumption is original, and
founded oil long experience ami a thorough j
investigation. My perleot acquaintance with |
the nature of tubercles, &c , enables me to I
distinguish readily the various forms of dis |
ease that simulate consumption, and apply :
the prop" remedies rarely being mistaken |
oven ill a single case. This familiarity in j
connection with cousin pnthologicul and mi- i
croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve j
Ihe lungs from the effects of contracted chests;
to enlarge the chest, purify Ihe blood, imparl
to tl renewed vitality, giving energy and tone
to the entire system.

TONICS YVON'T DO.
rixHEY never did do more than give lempo
-*■ raty relief and tltey'never will. It is he
cause ihey don't touch ihe cause of the dis
ease. The cause of all ague and billiou dis
eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias
ma or Malaria. Neutralize litis poison by
us
NATURAL ANTIDOTE.
and all diseases caused by it disappears at
once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague. Cure is this
Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a
perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate
id' the celebrated chemist, I. K. Chilton, of
New Yoik, lo litis effect, is attached lo every
bottle ; therefore if il does no good it cue do
no harm.
Thin is more than can be said oT Quinine,
Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, us their
use is ruinous to the constitution and brings 1
on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per
son to feel perlectly well for a single moment.
I In illustration of these truths I annex some
extracts Irotn a letter just received from a
' l'livsiciau:
Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56.
Jas. A. Riiodks, Esq.— Dear Sir: Yoiks of
2d irist. is at hand. The Cure arrived late
last year and lite difficulty in (jelling any one
to try it was greatly increased from the fact
thai a remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be
ing better than using Quinine, —not knowing
1 presume that the remedy they needed to
escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG
lI'SELF!
This remedy, (kno-' t as "Smith's Tonic,")
would invariably BREAK an ague, but it did
not CURE it, and it would of'en return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance I
deemed in your favor, if 1 could institute a
test comparison between it and your CUKE.
The following is the result:
Three persons look your "Core," all of
1 which were cases of "Quotidian Intermit*
I tent Fever." of many weeks standing. They
| had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa
sionally missing a chill, but it was, (us in all
j such rases.) slowly wearing litem out, ami
; laying the Inundation of other and severer
> maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi
! cal cure of all three of these cases with your
j remedy, and they have not had a chill since.
In all three of these cases the •'Smith's Ton
• ic" hud been used, and would, ss before sta
ted, break the chill, but after a period or two
I hud elapsed it would return.
! 1 think there will be no difficulty now in
j giving to your •'•Cure" the vantage ground of
i any other remedy now in use here. &u-. &c.

RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or

dy in existence, is equul'y certain as a PRE

Tim Author of the shove volume rs a gradu
ate of one or the first medical achooia it; the
United Stilts, and having devoted a quarter of
n century to the study and treatment of Ayphitis
and kindred disorder* as a speciality, be has
become possessed of rnoal invaluable informa
tion in regard to the same, and ia abla to com
pasa into vade mecum compiss Jhe very quint
essence of medicel science on this important
subject; * the result of the experience of the
most eminent physician in Kurope and Amer
ica ia thoroughly demonstrated iu hie own
highly succcaafut practice in the treatment of
e rc i diseases in many thousands of carea in
the City of Philadelphia alone.
The | ractice of Dr. Hunter has long boen,
and still is literally unbounded, but at the ear
nest solicitation of numeroua persona, he hat
been induced to extend the sphere of his pro
fessional uaifulness to the cummunity at large,
through the medium of his "Medual Manual
Hand-Book for the Afflic'cd.'*
It is t volume (hat should be in the hand of
every family in the land, whether ueed aa a
preventive of secret vice, or a* a gaide for the
alleviation of one of the moat awful and de
structive scourges ever visited upon mankind
for the sins of sensuality and impurity of every j
kl d.
ll is s volume lhat hat received the unquali
fied recommendation of the first pbtraiciati in
the land, while many clergymen, fathers, moth
era, | hilanlhropiaU and humanitarians, hive
most freely extended its circulation in all quar
ters where it* powerful teachings Would he like
ly to be instrumental in the moral purification
and physical healing of multitude of our peo
ple, among the young, volatile and indiscreet,
otherniae the pride and flower of the nation. ,
The authoi argues particularly, moat strongly
against every species of self-defilement, and
warns parents and guardians, in searching
terms, to guard the young of both sexes from
the terrible consequences concomitant of their
ignorsuce of phy'ologicat laws and sexual and
purities and irregularities, whether exhibits
ny precocious development or nrising fiom the
viscious and corrupting examples of their school
mates or otherwise. To those who have lice]
alieady ensnared to the "paths that take hold
on hell,'' a clear and explicit way is shown by
whtchtheymav secure a icturn of sound health
and a regeneration of the roul from its terrible
pollution.
It is well known that thousanJa of victitna
are annually sacrificed at the sbrin of Quack
ery—especially those sulfating fiom Veneiealor
Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak
ness, Nervous Debility, and the numeroas mal
adies which spring directly or less remotely
| from the indulgence of carual passions and sc-
I crclviol itions of Nature,
1 In view of these lacts, and when it is also
I considered that about 100,000 persons die annu
ally in the United Stales of Conaumption—a
j large mijonty being the victims of the voluput
ous indiscretion of their progenitors, agreeably
| to the Scriptural enunciation, that the sins of
! the parents arc visitod upon the children, even to
; the third and fourth generation. The Author,
I imbued with sentiments of enlarged philbnlhro

PHILADELPHIA MEDICAL HOUSE—
Established 20 years ago by Dr. XINKELIN,
corner of Third and Union aireeta, between
Spruce and Pint, Philadelphia, Pa.
INVALIDS
Are appriaed that Dr. KINKELIN oonfinea
tire prao'.ice to a particular branch of medi
cine, wbieti engages his individual atteulicn.
He oaulions the unfortunate against the a
buse of mercury; thousands are annqally
mercurialized out of life. Recent affections
are ptomptly extinguished.
TWENTY YEARS'EXPERIENCE
In the treatment of a class of disaasea Ailh
erto neglected and imperfectly understood,
has enabled Dr. KINKELIN, Author of a
work on Self Preservation, to prove list nine
tenths of the causes of nervous debility, lo
cal and constitutional weakness, mental and
physical suffering, are traceable to certain
habits, forming the most secret yet deadly
and fatal springs of domestic mitary and
premature mortality.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE,
There is an evil habit sometimes indulged
in by boye, in solitude, and which, if not re
formed in due tune,' not only begets serious
obstacles to matrimonial happiness,bin gives
rise to a series of protracted, invidious, and
devastating afflictions. Few of those who
give way to this pernicious practica are a'
ware ol the consequences, until tboy find
the nervous system shattered, feel strange
and unaccountable feelings, and vagus faara
in the mind.
The unfortunate thus a (Tooled becomes fee
ble, is unable to labor with accustomed vig
or, or to apply his mind la study ; hie etep it
tardy ana weak, be ie dull, irresolute, and
engages in hit sport with last energy titan
usual.
If he emancirate himself before the prac
tice has done its worst, and enter matrimony,
his marriage is unfruitfnl, and his sense tells
him that this is caused by his early follies.—
i These are considerations which should awa
ken the attention of those similarly ailuatad.
MARRIAGE
Requires the fulfillment of several conditions
in order that it may be really the cause of
mutual happiness. Could the veil which
covers the origin of domestic wretchedness
be raised, ami its true source ia every in
stance disclosed—in how many could it be
traced to physical disqualifications and their
attendant disappointments! Apply then while
it is yet time, in order to have your unstrung
and relaxed organization retvaced, revivified
and strengthened.
REMEMBER,
He who places himself under Dr. Kinkelin'a
treatment may religiously confide in his hon
or as a genteman, and rely upon the assur
ance, that the secrets of Dr. K's patients will
never be disclosed.
Young man—let no false modesty deter
you from making your case Known to one
who. from education and respectability, can
befriend you.
Too many think they will conceal the se
cret in their own hearts,and cure themve Ives
Alas ! how often is this a fatal delusion, and
how many a promising young man, who
might have liecn an ornament to society, has
j faded from the earth.
Strictures of the urethra are rapidly re
moved by the application of a new thera
peutical agenl, used only by Dr. K. Weak
ness and Constitutional Debility promptly

j The only Safe which, in every instance

AT THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAM

' them, their great superiorly over all securi
-1 ties known.
In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE,
sianding side by side with those advertised
as "warranted to stand 10 per oent. more fire
than Herring's," came forth the acknowledg
ed victor, not only preserving their contents
in excellent order, but being themselves in- a
condition to go through another ordeal, while
the boasted "Salemandeis" of other makers
were badly used np in every instanoe, and
in somecasestheir entire contents completely
destroyed.
To iba public we would simply say, that,
during the fourteen years of the Herring's
I Safe has been before them, more than two
; hundred have passed through aoCidetllal fire a
without the occurrence of a single iocs.
We would, therefore, caution purchasers
