SUCCESSFULLY TREATED,
BY' INHALATION OF MEDICATED VAPORS.
JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, AT. D.,
of the Royal College of Physicians.
and for years Senior Physician in the London
Royal Infirmary, for diseases of the Lungs.
In the treatment of Consumption by inhalation,
I ’have obtained results which warrant me in asserting
that it is now as curable as diseases of the Stomach
and Liver.
- Breathing medicine directly into the Langs is
certainly the rational mrde of attacking the dis
ease. Like many other great and beneficent discov
eries, its seems strange why such treatment was
not resorted to long ago. Where there is life there
is assuredly hope for the most seemingly hopeless
cases, as throughout all the stages of this insidious
disease, the wonderful and benelicieiit effects of his
treatment are soon apparent. In cases also of
Bronchitis, Asthma, Ac., the inhaling of powders
and vapors has been eminently successful, and to
those suffering under any of the above named com
plaints, I can guarantee a speedy relict. I have
pleasure in referring to 109 names, residents of
New York and neighborhood, who have been re
stored to vigorous health; about one-third of the
above number, according to the patients' own state
ments, were considered hopeless eases.
The Inhaling method is soothing, safe and speedy,
and consists in the administration of Medicines in
such a manner that they arc conveyed into the
Lungs in the form of vapor and produce their ac
tion at the seat of disease. Its practical success is
destined to revolutionize the opinions of the medi
cal world, and establish the entire curability of
Consumption.
Applicants will please to state if they have ever
bled from the Lungs; if they have lost flesh; have
cough, night sweats, aud fever turns; what and
how much they expectorate; what the condition
of their stomach and bowels. The necessary Medi
cines, Apparatus, Ac., will he forwarded to any part.

The Ilvdromagcn is a valuable discovery for pro
tecting the feet from damp or cold, and t’nerefoio
a preventive of many Lung diseases, without- nny
doctoring whatever. ‘The Hydromagcn is in the form
of a sole, and worn in<i ic tl:e boot or shoe. Its -med
icated, cliaraeter is a powerful antidote to desease;
For Gentlemen it will be found agreeable, warm,
and healthy, to wear in the i< I .le.-t or raintest weath
er, as the foot cannot lieeoinc wet if the Hydromagcn
iis inserted. Ladies may wear the lightest soled boots
|or shoes in the mostiui'lemeut weather with impuni
ty ; while Consumption, so prevalent among the'
voting of our country, may be thwarted by their gen
eral adoption. They entirely supersede over-shoes, as
the latter cause the feet to perspire in a very unheal
thy manner: and besides, are. not dangerous wear to
pedestrians in icy weather, like indie rubbers.—
While tiie latter cause the feet to appear extremely
large, the Hydromagcn, being a mere thin slice of
cork prepared peculiarly, placed inside, does not in
crease the size ofthe boot, or cause the foot to appear
untidy. To Children they are extremely valuable, as
thevmay engage in exercise with comfort and heal
thy effects. Tiieir expense is so slight as to scarce
need mention; besides, those who patronize them
will find their yearly doctor’s hills mveh diminished
thereby. . .
As the Ilvdromagcn is becoming more known, its
sale is increasing to an almost incredible extent. Last
year in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Liver
pool, Glasgow, Leeds. Dublin, Paris, Antwerp, 1 Lam
bur'. and Berlin, our sales reached 1.752.45 b, pairs
of Cork Soles. This year the number will far sur

CIIE STl>lto TEC T 0 li,
To all persons of all ages and conditions, as a ct.-r,
tain and a safe shield against those fearful diseases,
Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Coughs, Colds
and other afflictions of the Lungs, which arise from
the exposed state ofthe chest, uco rdiny to fashion,
and the continual changes of our climate.
“The Protector,” is simply a chemically prepared
fur lined with silk and padded, which, suspended from
the neck, covers ti e chest, in so agreeable a manner
that, once worn, it beiuiues a necessity and con■
fort.
“ The Protector, ’’ although but recently introduc
ed into Ameri ais making rapid progress through
the United States, the Canadas, South America, and
the West Indies. It lias tor along time been a staple
article in England and on the continent of Europe,
while it has grown in many countries to the position
of an article of dress.
To demons:;-.:: • these facts enquire of any English
resident in yourviciuiy of his knowledge of the bene
ficial effects of wearing the Protector, without i:k
covime to noi Tottixa ofi,my kind. The cost of wear
ing these articles is a mere trille, and one will last
some years. No one who values the health of him
self or his family v. ill be without them. The Hospi
tals in this country are not alone recommending them
but rapidly inti-o'diteing them. Hurcourt, Bradley
A Cos., of London, and Manchester, England, were
originally entrusted with the manufacture of the
Protectors, by the lamented Dr. Coopei, nnd eontin
tie to inanutketure according to his original instruc
tions, and therefore recommend those who would
wear “ The Protector-,” to see to their being genuine.

for all the lumber now in their yard. The fact that
lumber is not fresh-sawed does not deteriorate from

Kci'Did. YV'e are about making arrangements to ship
quite a quantity of lumber to Eatonton, and pile it
near the clep.itj where wc will sell scantling arid
plank of various kinds, at one dollar and thirty
cents per hundred feet, for Cash. If Jumbo.’ at the
Mills in Futnafti is worth one dollar and twenty-five
cents per hundred, it is worth the price we ask for
it, delivered in Eatonton.
We are still sawing away at the old stand estab
lished by V. YV. <fc E. 1). Ross on the, M. & G. K.
K., wher. we are prepared to saw lumber at short
notice. Make out your bills carefully, and sign
