P1TTARD & CO. SUCCESSFULLY TREATED BY IN HALATION OF MEDICATED VA PORS. \Y JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D. ) Fellow of the Royal Collego of Physici ans, nnd for years Senior Physician in the London Royal Infirmary for diseases of the Lungs. In the treatment of Consumption by In halation, 1 have obtained results which war rant me in asserting that it is now as cura ble as di-eascs of the Stomach and Liver. Breathing medicine directly into the Lungs is certainly the rational mode of at tacking tho disease, and like many other great aud beneficent discoveries’ it tjgem strauge why such treatment was not resort ed to loug ago. Where there is life, there is surely hope for the most seeming hopeless cases, as throughout all the stages of this in sidious disease, the wonderful and beneficent effects of its treatment are soon apparent. In cases also of Bronchitis, Asthma, &c., the ufculing of powders aud vapors has been eminently successful, and to those suffering under any of the above nami d complaints, can guarantee speedy and certain relief. I have pleasure in referring to 207 names, residents of New York, and neighborhood, who have been restored to vigorous health About one third of the above number, ac cording to the patients own statement?, were considered hopeless cases. The inlialiug Method is soothing safe und speedy, and consists in the administration of medicines in such a manner they arc con veyed into the Lungs in the form of vapor, and produce their action at the scat of the disease, ts practical success is destined to revolu- ticnize the opinions of the medical world, and eslablishe the entir curability of Con sumption. Applicants will please state if they have ever bled from the Lungs, if they have lost flesh, have a cough, night sweats and fever turns—what and how much they expectorate, v hat the condition of their stomach and bowels. The necessary Medicines, appara tus, its., will bo forwarded to any part. TERMS—Five dollars, consultation fee. Balance of fee payable only when the pati ents report tlu-mselvos convalescent. RECOMMENDATION BY PHYSICIANS. We, the undersigned practitioners in me dicine, cheerfully and heartily recommend Dr. Roses method of treating diseases of the Lungs and Throat, as the best and most efiec- tual ever introduced into medical practice. Our convictions are bnsed upon having several of ourow n patients, confirmed consumptives restored to vigorous health after a few months treatment by Dr, Rose, in tho above named diseases the application of *•’Medicat ed Vapors,” inhaled directly into the Lungs may be justly considered a great boon to suffering humanity, rendering Consumption a perfectly curable disease. Dr. Rose dfiserves well of the profession for his unwearied labors in bringing the In haling Method to such a degree of perfec tion. RALPH STONE. M, I>. JONAS A- M OTT, M. I>. CYRUS KINGLEY. m. V.

Sogers’ Liverwort & Tar, For the complete cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spitting of Blood, and all other Lung Complaints tending to Consumption. T HIS preparation is getting into use all over our Country. The numerous let ters we receive from our various agents, informing us of cures effected iu their imme diate neighborhoods, warrant ns in saying it is one of the best, if not the very best Cough Medicine now before the public. It almost invariably relieves and not unfre- quently cures the very worst cases. When all other Cough preparations have failed, this has relieved the patient, as Druggists, dealers in Medicines, and Physieians can testify. Ask tho Agent in your nearest town, what has been his experience of the effects of this medicine. If he has been selling it for any length of time lie will tell you IT IS THE BEST MEDICINE EXTANT. Below we give a few extracts from letters we hare received lately" regarding tbe vir tues of this medicine. Dr. S. S. Oslin, of Knoxville, Ga., says:— “ 1 hove beeu using your ..Liverwort and Tar very extensively in my practice for three years past, and, it is with pleasure I state my belief in its superiority overall other articles with which 1 am acquainted, for which it is recommended.” Messrs. Fitzgera’d & Benners, writing from Waynesville. N. C. say :—“ The Liver wort and Tar is becoming daily more popu lar in this Country, jftvD we tihnk justlt so. All who have tried it speak itf eoni- mendable terms of it, and say it is very beneficial iu alleviating the complaints for which it is recommended.” Our Agent in Pickens District, S. C. Mr R. McFall, assures us “that he uses it BOOTS! BOOTS!

Such are the good reports we bear of this Medicine front all parts of the South. For report of the surprising cures it has per formed in tho Western and Northern and Eatern States, we would invire the suffering patient to read the pamphlet which accom panies each bottle. To all, we Sdy, have hope have hope ! TRY THE MEDICINE!!' BE WARNED IN SEASON!!!
