PALExMON JOHN, Tics'/. Bloomsbttrg, Pa., Sept. 19, 1857. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY. CONSUMPTION, AND ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS A' nd THQATT ate positively curable by in halation, which conveys the remedies to j the cavities in the lungs through the air pas ' sages, and coming in direct contact with the | disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, | allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex j pecto'slion, heals the lungs, purifies the blond, imparls renewed vitality to the nervous sys j lent, giving that tone and' energy so indis ! pensable lor the restoration of health. To be : able to stale confidently that Consumption is i curable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control ol medical treatment as at 7 Jther formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, ill the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per cent., for the luogs 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 tearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the United States alone; and a correct calculation shows thai out of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty miijioris are des- j lined to fill the consumptive's grave. Truly the quiver of dealt) has no arrow so falal as Consumption. In all ages il has been the great enemy of life, for il spares neither age nor sex. but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, Ihe graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom corneth every good and perleel gift, I am enabled to offer to the a file led a perma nent ar.d speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause of tubercles is from impure biood. and the immediate effect, produced by their deposition in the lungs, is to prevei t the free admission of air into the air cells, which causes a weakened vitality through Ihe entire system. Then surely il is more rational to expect greater good from cities entering the cavities of the lungs limn Irani those administered through the siom ach; the patient will always find the lungs free and -the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. Thus, inhalation is u local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with more power and certainty than rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the powerlul and direct influence ol this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew min utes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so that a limb mat be amputated without the s'tghlest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will desiroy I tie in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when tainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many ol the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes afier being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional effects of inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by break ing foul air. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously adminisieied through the lungs, should produce the most happy results? Du ring eighteen years' practice, rnanv thous ands, suffering fro.n diseases of the lungs ar.d throat, have been under my care, and 1 have affected ninny remarkable eures, even alter the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies me that consumption is no longer n latal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perlect acquaintance with the naiure 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" certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the lungs from the effects of contracted chests; to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with full directions sent to any part of the United States and Canadaa by patients communicating their symptoms by letter. Gut the cure would be more ceitaio if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give me an opportunity to examine the lungs and enable ma to prescribe with greater certainty, and then ihe cure could be effected without my seeing the patient again.
