BROUGHT HOME TO THE DOOR OF THE SlILUOX.
A WONDERFUL Discovery has recently been made
by Dr. Curtis, of this city, in the treatment of Con
sumption, Asthma and all diseases of the Luns We refer
to "Dr. Curtis' Hygeana, or Inhaling Hygean Vapor and
Cherry Syrup." With this new method Dr. C. has re-
iuou.. umiLicu uues w peneci nciitn ; as an evi
dence of which he has innumerable: certificates. Speuk
ing of the treatment, a physician remarks : It is evident
that inhaling constantly breathing an agreeable, healing
vapor, the medicinal properties must come in direct con
tact with the whole of the ai ial cavity of the lungs, and
thus escape the manyand varied changes produced upon
them when introduced into the stomach, and fubjected
to the process of digestion. The Hvgeana is for sale at
all the druggists' throughout the couutry.

The Inhaler is worn on thebreast under the linen with
out the least inconvenience the heat of the bodv being
sufficient to evaporate the fluid. '
Hundreds of cases of cures like the following might be
named. One Package of Hygeana has cured nie of the
Asthma of six years standing. j '
