CONSUMPTION ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS AND THROAT Can be-Cured by INHALATION. Which conveys the remedies te the cavaties in the lungs, throfigli the,air-passages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubeicu-l lar matter, allays the cough, causes a free and easy expectoration, heals the lungs, purifies the blood, imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system, giving that tone and energy so indispensable tor the restoration of health. To be able to state confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me , a source of .unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control of medical treatment as any other form- : idable disease; ninety out of every bundled cases; can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, in the second; but in the third stand it is impossible to save more than live per cent., for the lungs ate so | cut up by the disease as to bid defiance to medical i skill. Even, however, in the last stages, Inhalation ! affords extraordinary relief to the suffering attending | this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninetyfive thousand persons in the United States alone; arid a correct calculation shows that of the present popu lation of the earth, eighty millions are destined to till the Consumptive's grave. Truly, the quiver of death has no arrow so fatal a-s Consumption. In all ages it has been the great enemy of life, for it spares neither age nor sex, hut sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful and the gifted. By the help of that Supreme Being from whom conietb every good and perfect gift, 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 tire free admission of air into the air-cells, which causes a weakened vitality through the entire < system. Then, surely, it is more rational to expect I greater good fronr medicines entering the cavaties of I the lungs than from those admiiiisleled through the ; stoniacb; the patient will always find the lungs free | and the breathing easy,after inbalingremedies. Thus, ; Inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally. and with inoic power and certainty than remedies administered by tltc stomach. To prove tne powerful and direct influence of this inode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirej ly destroy sensibility in a few minutes, paralyzing tiie entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the slightest pain; inhaling the or dinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will arouse the system when fainting or apparently dead. The odor of many of the medicines is perceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional effects of inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breathing foul air—is this not positive evidence that proper remedies carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs should produce the happiest results? During eighteen years' practice many thousands, suffering from diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have effected many remarkable cures, cven„ after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, w hich fully satisfies me that consumption Is no longer a fatal disease. My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, &c., enables nre to distinguish, readily, the variolas forms of disease that simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies, rarely being mistaken even in a single case. This familiarity, in connection with certain pathological and microscopic discoveries, enables ino to relieve the lungs from the effects of contracted chests, to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with full directions sent to any part c>L the United States and Canadas by patients communicating their symptoms by letter. But the cure would be.tiioro certain if the patient should pay me a visit, winch would give an opportunity to examine the lungs, and enable me to prescribeywitb much greater certainty, and then the cure could-he effected without my seeing the patient again. All letters asking advice must contain a postage stamp. ADDRESS G. IV. GRAHAM, M. D., BOX No. 53. Office, 1131 Filbert Street, old No. 109, BKt.OW TWELFTH. Philadelphia., Penn.
