make them rise in the air. These two

Important Discovery.
CONSUMPTION and all Diseases of the
Lungs and Throat are positively Cured
by Inhalation, which conveys the remedies
to the cavities in the lunge through the air
passages, and coming in direct contact with
the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter,
allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex
pectoration, heals the lungs, purifies 'tbt
blood, imparts renewed vitality to the nervous
system. giving that tone and energy so indis
pensable fur the restoration of health. To be
able to state confidently that Consumption is
curable by inhalation, is to me a nouns of
unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the
control of medical treatment as any other Sins
onidable disease : ninety out of every hundred
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 up by the dis
ease si to bid defiance to medical skill.—
Keen. however. in the last stages, Inhalation
affords extraordinary relief to the suffering
attending this fearful scourge, which' annually
destroys ninety-five thousand persons ir. the
United States alone; and a correct calculation
shows that of the present population of the
earthy eighty millions are destined to fill the
Constimptive's grave.
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow ao
fatal as Consumption. In all ages it has
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 cometh every good and perfect
gilt. I am enabled to offer to the, afflicted a
permanent and 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
nausea a weakened vitality through the entire
system. Then surely it is more rational to ex
pect mate, good from medicines entering the
cavities of the lungs than from those admit'
istered through the stomach . • the patient will
always find the limp free and the breathing
easy, after Inhaling remedies. Thus, Inhala
tion is a local remedy. nevertheless it acts
constitutionally, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administered by the
stomach. Tothe powerful and direct
influence of tri ve mode of administration,
chloroform inhaled will entir ely destroy sensi
bility in a few minbtas, paralyzing the entire
nervous system, so that a limb may jos sme ‘
Waled without the slightest pain inhaling
the ordinary burning gas will destrOyiife 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 percepti
ble in the akin a few minutes after being in
haled. and may be immediately detected in
the blood. A convincing proof of the consti
tedious' effects of itihalauon, is the fact that
sickness is always produced by breathing foul
air—is not, this positive evidence that proper
remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously
administered through the lungs should pro
ems. the happiest results? During eighteen
years' practice, many thousands suffering
from diseases of the lungs and throat, have
been ender my care, and I have effected many
remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had
been pronounced in the last stages. which'
fully satisfies me 'that consumption is no
longer a fatal disease. My treatment of con.
sumption is original, and founded on long ex
perience and a thorough investigation. My
perfect acquaintance with the natuge of tuber
cles, &c., enables me to distinguish readily,
the various forms of disease that simulate con•
sumption, and apply the proper remedies, reit
ly being mistaken even in a single ease.
