CONSUMPTION, AND ALL .DISEASES OF THE LUNGS Ami THOATTaie positively curable by in halation, which conveys the remedies to (he cavities in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coming iu direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex pecto'otion, heals the lungs, purifies the blood, imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys tem, giving that tone and energy so indis pensable lor the restoration of health. To be able to stale confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me a source of uhulloycd pleasure. It is a, much under the control of medical treatment as any ather formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cored in the first stages, and fifty per cenlt in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per cent., for the luugs are so cut up by the disease as to bid. defiance to medical skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in halation affords extraordinary relief to the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the 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 all ages it has been the great enemy ol fife, for it spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, 1 am enabto-1 lo a£ir to the nfHr.lml a perma nent and speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause of tubercles is from impure blood, and tho immediate effect, produced by their deposition in the lungs, is to prevent the free admission of air into the air cells, which causes a weakened vitality through the entire sysiem. Then surely it is more rational to expect greater good from rr.edij cines entering the cavities of the lungs than from those administered through the stom ach; the patient will always find the lungs free and the breathing eijsy after inhaling remedies. Thus, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts "constitutionally, and with more power and certainty than rem edies administered by ihe stomach. To prove the powerful and direct influence of this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a few min utes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the s'lghtcst pain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many of the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of tho constitutional cflects ol inhalation, is tho faot that sickness is always produced by breath ing foul air. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the longs, shonld produce the most happy results? Du ring eighteen years' practice, many thous ands, suffering from diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have affeoted many remarkable cores, even afier ihe sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which folly satisfies me that consumption is no longer a iatal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, &c., enables me to distinguish readily the various forms of dis ease that simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken even In a single case. This familiarity in connection with and mi croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the longs from the effects of contracted chests; to enlarge the chest, pnrify the blood, impart to it ronewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with full directions sent lo any part ol the United States and CRiiadaa by fiatients communicating their symptoms by etter. But the core would be more ceitain if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give me an opportunity lo examine the lungs and enable me to prescribe with greater certainly, and then the cure could be effected without my seeing the patient again.
