AND ALL .DISEASES OF THE LUNGS And THOATT are positively curable by in hulaLgyn, which conveys the remedies to the catbTes in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coining in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex peewmion, heals the lungs, purifies the blood, renewed vitality to the nervous s>s- Tern, giving that lone and energy so indis pensable for the restoration of health. To be able to stale confidently mat Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to trie a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is a> much under the control ol medical ItenliTieril as any Jther formidable disease; nineiy mil 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 cent., for the lungs are so cut tip by the disease as to bid dpfiauee lo medical skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in halstion affords extraordinary rebel to the -uflering attending this iearlul scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the United States alone; and a correct calculation shows that nut of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty millions are des tined lo 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 life, for it spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the tirave, the beautiful, the graceful, anil the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom oomelh every good and perfect gift, I am enabled lo oflet to the ufllcled a perma nent ard speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause of tubercles is from impure blood, and the 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 system. Then sorely it is more rational to expect grester good from rr.edi cines entering the cavities of the lurigs than I ruin those administered through the stom ach; the patient will always find tho lungs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. Thus, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and Willi more power and certainty than rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the powetlul and direct influence ol Ihis mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sonsibtlity in a few min utes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the s'tghtest 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 ol many ol the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a lew minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately delected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional efleets of inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breath ing foul air. Is not litis positive evidence that proper remedios, carefully prepared and I judiciously administered through the lungs, j should produce the most happy results? I)u- j ring eighteen years' practice, many thous- | and*, suffering from diseases of the lungs I ar.d throat, have been under my care, and I j have affected many remarkable cures, even ; after the sufferers had been pronounced in I the last stages, which fully satisfies me that ' consumption is no longer a latal disease.— j My treutment of consumption is original, and 1 founded on long experience and thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance wi-h ; the nature ol tubercles, &c., enables me to distinguish readily the various forms of dis- I ease that simulate consumption, and apply I the proper remedies rarely being mistaken even ilia single case. This familiarity iri connection with certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables tne to relieve the lungs (rom the effects of contracted clie.-ts; to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart lo it renewed vjtalitv, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with full directions sent to any part of the United Slates and Canada* by | patients communicating their symptoms by : letter. But the cure would be more cntain | if the patient should pay me a visit, which ' would give me an opportunity to examine j the lungs and enable me to prescribe with greater certainty, and then the cure could be eflected without my seeing the patient again.

GUSTAV LINN ARB'S TASTE RESTORATIVE TORCHES, The Great Substitute for Tobacco. It is a well known and inconlrnvertable fact lhal the use of Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of the most severe Mental and Physical Disorders to which the race of man is subject, as careful analysis and long and painful experience have clearly proven lhal it contains certain norcotia and poison ous properties most dangerous in their eff ects, which by enterihg into the blood der ange the functions and operations of the Heart, causing many lo suppose that organ (o be seriously diseased. Tobacco anects also the entire nervous system, manifesting itself—as all who have ever used the noxious weed will bear testi mony—in lassitude, Nervous Irritability, Water Brash, Dyspepsia, and many other disorders of a similar character. The taste Restorative Troches are design ed to counteract these baneful influences, and have ptoved completely successful in a multitude of case*, and whenever used. Being harmless in themselves they exert a beneficial effect upon the entire system, re storing the Taste which has become vitiated or destroyed by great indulgence, complete ly removing the irritation and accompanying tickling sensation of the Throat—which are always consequent upon abstaining Irom the use of Tobacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the stomach, invigorate the whole system. Persons who are irretrievably undermining their constitutions and shortening their lives, should use these Troches immediately and throw of the injurious and unpleasaul habit of Tobacco Chewing. These Troches or Lozeagers are put up in a convenient and portable lonn at the low price of 50 Cents per Box. A liberal discount ' to the Trade.

For the rapid cure of coughs, colds, hoarse ness, bonchitis, whooping cough, asthma and cousumpiinn, is universally known as the best remedy ever yet discovered for ev ery variety of pulmonary disease.

The medicines are pleasant without odor, causing r.o sickness and fiee from mercury or balsoin. During 21) I years of practice, I have rescued from the I jows of death many thousands, who, in the last stages of the above mentioned diseases | had bean given up to die by their physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflict ed, who may plac* themselves under my care, a perfect and must speedy cure. Secret dis eases are (be greatest enemies to health, as they arc the Gist cause of Gnnsumptiou, Scrof ula ami many other diseasea, and shoulJ be a teiror to the human family. As a permanent cure is scarcely ever elTected, a mujorily of the casce falling into the hands of incompe tent persons, who not only fail to cure Ihe diteases but ruin the constitution, filling tho system with mercury, which, wilh the disease, hastens the sufferei into a rapid consumption. But should Ihe disease end Ihe tieaiment not cause death speedily and the victim mer ries, the disease i- entailed upon children, who are born with feeble constitutions, and the current of life corruptrd by a virus which be trays itself in Scrofula, Tetter, Ulcere, Erup tions and other affections of Ihe skin, Eyes, Throat end Lungs, entailing them to an early grave. Self-obuaa is another formit'sble enemy to health, for nothing else in the dread catalogue of human diseasea causes so destructive a drain upon tho system, drawing its thousands of victims through e few years of suffering down to an untimely grave. I( destroys the Ner vous system, rapidly wastea away the energies of life, causes meniel derangement, prevents 'be proper development of the syatrm, dis qualifies for marriage, society, business, and all earthly hoppiuese, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predispuaed to consumption end a tiain of evils moie to lie dreaded iban death itself. With the fullest confidence 1 assure Ihe unfortunate vietisis of eelf.ubusp that e permanent end speedy cure can be effected, and with the abandonment of ruinous practices my patients can be restored to robust, vigO'Ous health, 'The afflicted are cautioned against the use of Patent Medicines, for (here are so many inge nious snares in thecolumns of the public piints lo catch and 10b Ihe unwaiy sufferers that millions have their constitutions ruined by ihe *ile compounds of quack doctors, or the equally poisonous nostiums v need as 'Patent Medicines.' 1 nave carefully analyzed many 1 of the an called Patent Medicines end find that nearly all ol tbem contain Corrosive Sunli male, which is one of the strongest prepara tions of meirury and a deadly poison, which instead of curing the disease disables the eya | tern for life.
