SALAMAND.. -" A reptile with a long tail,
having an affinity with lizards. The vulgar
story that a Salamander in able to endure fire is
a mistake."— Webster's Dictionary.
•
Webster is right ; the man o f facts
To falsehood would not pander;
Full well we know the fire will
Consume the Salamander.
Ai Reading, in the Keystone State,
The thine has had a trial ;
And that the "Salamander" burnt
In settled past denial.*
The Salamander was a pet,
On which its owners boasted :
And wagered it would stand the dame
Where HERRING would be roasted.
They placed it in a furnace hot,
And then with malice cruel
Piled up the hickory and the oak,
And tired pp the fuel.
The HERRING like a warrior stood,
Clothed in a coat of mail ;
'The flames assailed it right and left,
But could not start a scale.
The Salamander by its aide,
Clean to the ribs was toasted ;
And when its inwards were consumed,
The Hnsafsa was not roasted.
Thou let the reptile spread its tale,
A tale of lies and slander ;
The HERRING need not scorch a scale'
To &nen the SAIALIANDCH.
.After a fide and impartial trial, the safe
sit vans & Watson (Salamander) was first
I)pened, the safe being on be 'inside, and the
contents partially consumed, while the safe of
Farrel It Herring (Herring's Patent) were in
good condition, and no fire inside."—Extruct

The great point in the treatment of all hinimii
maladies, is to gut at the diAeue in the lit
untidier. All medicines are.estimated by their •
action upon the organ requiring relict. 'bit's is
the important fact upon which Inhalation is lie-
ISM. If the stomach is diseased we take itiedi•
tine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are
diseased. breathe or 'nith: medicated valid',
directly into the lingo. Medicines aro the an
tidotes to disease and should he :then.; 1 to the
very sent of disease. inhalation is the applica
tion of this principle to the treatment at the
lungs, for it gives us direct aceese to those ha ri
cute air cells and tubes which lie out of reach
of every other means of miministering medicines.
The reason that COll3 minion, and other disea
ses of the lungs, linen heretofore re4,ed all
treatment has been beCause Ifiey have never
been approached In a throve manner by medi
cine. They were intended to act upon the lungs
and yet were implied to the stomach. Their
action ins intended to ho local, and yet, they
were so administered that they shonlif not act
constitutionall , expanding the it immediate and
principal action upon the imodending stomach,
whilst the foul ulcers within the were Ott
molested. Inhalation brings the medicine ill
direct contact with the disease, without the dit
advantage or .y violent action. Its application
is simple, that it can be employed lip the yr 'in
gest infant or feeblest invalid. It 'lies nut de
range the stomach, or interfere in the least de
gree with the strength, oonalurt, or .business of
the patient.
