KIMiSFOKD & SON'S PURE OSWEGO STARCH, (fOR THE LAUNDRY.) T¥AS established a greater celebrity than has erer 1 een obtained by any oilier Starch. This has been the result of its markeJ su periority in quality, and its invariable uni formity. The public may le assured of the continu ance of the It gh standard now established. The production is over Twenty Tons daily, anJ the demand has extended throughout die whole of the United States, and to foreign countries. Wotkitig thus on a very large fcale, and under a rigid system, tliey are aide to secure a perfect and uniformity in thcquslity tnrough out the year. This is the great Desideratum in Starch making, and is realized now foe the first lime. The very best starcli thai can be made,and ! no other , is always wai ted by consumers, ; and while this will be supplied to them by tho grocers, as soon as their customers have (earned which is the best, and ask for it— i otherwise thay would be likely to got thai : article on which the largest profit can be made. &lr. Kingsford has been engaged in the j manufacture of starch cominuouilv for Ihe | last 27 years, and during the whole of the | perio-J, the starch made under his supervis- i ion has been, betond anv question, the best ' •ii the market. For the first 17 years, he had j •he charge of the works ol Wm. Colgate & i Co., at which period he invented the process I of the manufacture of corn starch. IST Ackjorl Cmgclbrd's Starch, o* the name Osicego has recently been taken by another fee- I tory. T. KINGSFORD & SON' S OSIPEOO coniv STARCH, (For Puddings, Ifc .) Has obtained an equal celebriiy with their ' Starch for the Laundry. This article ia per fectly pure, ar.d is, in every respect,equal to | the best Bermuda Arrow-Root, besides hav- | ing additional qualities which render it inval ualde for the dessert. Potato Starch ha* been extensively packed ! and told as Corn Starch, arid has given false ! impressions to many, as to the real merits ol j our Corn Starch. From its great delicacy and purity, rl is I coming al-o into extensive use as a diet for . infants and invalid*. E. N. KELLOGG & CO., Agents. | 196 Fulton Street, N. Y. ALLEN & NF.EDI ES.

CONSUMPTION, AND ALL JISEASES OF THE LUNGS And TIIOATT aie positively curable by in halation, which couveya the remedies 10 ihe cat .lies in (lie limits through the air pas sages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralize* the tubercular matter, allay a the cough, causes a free arid easy ex pcclo-ation, heals the lungs, pur fies the blood, imparls renewed vitality to the nervous sys tem, giving that tone and energy so indis pensable lor the restoration of health. To be able to stole confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, ie to me a source of unalloy ed pleasure. It is as much under the control of medical treatment as any ,liter formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per oont., for the luuga are ao cut up by the disease as to hid defiatioe to medical skill. Even, however, in the last stage*, in halation affords extraordinary relief to the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sona in the United Stales 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 us Consumption. In all ages it lias been the great enemy of life, 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 eometh every good and perfect gift, I am enubled to offer In the articled • perma nent and speedy cure in Consumption. The i 'first -cause of tubercles is from impure ■ blood, and' the immediate effect, produced | by their deposition in lite lungs, is to prevent ' the free wlmission 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.edij cities entering the cavities of the lungs than Irnm those administered through the stom ach; lite patient will always find the longs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. Titus, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with -more power and certainty than rctn e'Jie.t administered by the stomach. To prove the poweitul and direct influence ol this mode ol administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew min utes. paralyzing the enttrs nervou* system, so that a limb mat be amputated without the s'ighieM pain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will muse the system when tainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many ol the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a lew minutes alter being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blond. A convincing proof of lite constitutional eflects ol inhalation, is the fact that sickness I* always produced by breath ing fun I air. Is not litis positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through lite lungs, should produce lite most happy results? Du nn-; eighteen years 1 practice, many thous ands, suffering fro.n diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have afTecletl many remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies me that i con-Uinplinn is no longer a lalul disease.— My treat me lit (if consumption JS original, and founded oil long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, &c , enanles rne to disiiniifiish readily the various forms of dis ease drat simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mislakeu even in a single case. This familiarity in connection with certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the lungs from lite effects of coiuracleil chests; to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, imparl to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with full directions sent lo any part of the United States and Canada* by pa lenls communicating their symptoms by letter. Rut the cure would be more ceitaia if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give me an opportunity to examine the lungs and enable me lo prescribe with greater certainty, and then the cure could be effected without my seeing the patient again.
