Importuut to the Public as well ua the Medical I’rofcaaiou. , Hall’t Journal of Health, referring to Gonanmption, makes the following Important statement: “ Consumption usually begins with a slight, dry cough in ths morning; then, oh going to bed, getting more and more frequent, with more and more' phlegm, increasing debility, thinness of flash,, shortness of breath, and quickneas of pulse. In fatal esses it* average eourse is about two yeara ; hrnoe of- arresting the disease at aa early a stage as possible, and sooner rational means are ftiiployfed for this purpose tho greater the chance of snccoes. The disease is owing to an irritation commencing in the throat and extending to the lungs, so tint their action iv interfered with, and tha blood doss not reoeive sufficient oxygen, to purify it. The most marked sign of rungd so .se' is emaciation; and the most positive indication of retimi ng health is increase in weight.” • « j So speaks Hall'i Journal of Health, and we may add that in desperate cases, and, in fact, in all cases of Consumption, or troubles.of the throat and lungs, immedia'.e relief may he obtained And a 'perinaneut cure effected by tho use of Dr. Win.
